I can't understand ?!?!  Do you say that if Junior is 2 Pawns behind and it has
an evaluation of 0.00 then it thinks it has the advantage by +2.00  ?
I thought the evaluations were absolute and a 0.00 is a draw no matter what is
the material difference....

 No luck at all! I can't understand what luck has to do with Chess. Only the
opening book choice is a factor of luck but in this game there was no advantage
for Junior after the opening.
 It was just the well known style of Junior. Please keep working this way. The
style of Junior is amazing. Don't change it..........
