But this don´t mean that the "learning" is influenced on other Dos- programs. Junior5 plays until mate or draw when winning and resigns typically around -10 when losing. Of course a lot of game is resigned by the opponents too usually when they scores between -7 and -10 but Junior adjucates the game as a win and tries to repeat the opening again. If Junior is down a lot and the other program breakes the game as a win at more than +5 (rebel) it don´t repeat the same opening again. Looks forward for some testing of Tiger! Bertil
