We should give Fritz >credit for a very good and creative choice. After Kd8: 3k3r/8/p5r1/2p1Pp2/1pP2Pbp/1P2KB2/1P5R/6R1 w 18-ply eval: +0.39 Bd5 h3 Kd2 Rh4 Rgh1 Ke7 Kc2 Kd8 Kc1 Ke7 Kd2 Ke8 I don't know. In a position where any given move can still be made (or undone) - without apparent penalty - next time around, the evals for those moves will end up being fairly close. I guess the happenstance choosing of similar outcomes doesn't particularly conjure up, in my mind, the image of "creative".
