The position after move 68 was very interesting Tiger 12.Oe White King on d6, white pawn on e7 and white knight on e5, and CMQueen+ having black king on e8, and black bishop on f6. Just knowing that the bishop on CMQueen+ setting is worth 3.2 and the knight 3.1 I thought in a split of a second that CMQueen+ was going to take the pawn on e7 with a check thinking that is was winning by a small fraction, but CMQueen thought for a minute and 35 seconds and probably saw that is was a draw then analyzed the other option and immediately saw again a draw, who knows how many times it did this calculation, but choosing to take the knight was never on my mind and CMQueen+ took the knight.
