In this position Junior 6 played 42. Qc2!! all other programs that i've tested
(Crafty 17.07, Hiarcs 7.32, Fritz6 light 3 min on a celeron 450) evaluate Rxf7+
two pawns above Qc2, but 42. Rxf7+ Kxf7 43. Qxc7+ Ke6 44. Qxb8 seems to be a
very deep forced draw (see line in game below)

So, how Junior 6 can see this repetition draw :

- Evaluation (queen against a king in open lines) ?
- Full check extension (each check extend one ply, too big tree explosion in my
sens) ?
- Reduced check extension (one check extend some plies,but this is 32 plies deep
!) ?

Can someone test this position in junior 6 and give analysis please ?
This would help to understand the mechanism to find 42. Qc2!!
