I think that in this case tiviakov could do a simple draw by repetition if he
wanted a draw.

I guess that another reason is that the operator(I read that the operator is
also the programmer) did not want to win on time.

Fritz had good chances to win in the first game because the opponent was in time
trouble but unfortunately the operator did not do it.

I read a claim that the operator is an honest guy but I do not think that
playing in eqaul position when the opponent is in time trouble is something that
is not honest.

I think that Fritz is unlucky to have the programmer as the operator.
