Against Diep black (Tiger) exchanged all the rooks, leading to a drawn
ending. Instead of .. Rb4?! and especially ... Rc3? Chess Tiger should
have kept the rooks on the board. White is clearly struggling in that
case.

Also against Insomniac Chess Tiger was much better up to the point it
played ...e5? Instead ... c6 was better, putting the pawns on white
squares. If Black follows up with d6-d5 the white rooks have silly
positions on the a-file. Black can start operations on the king's side
and maybe with e6-e5. In that case I rather would be Black, since White
has no active plan to work with.

All in all I still think Chess Tiger is unlucky.
