Subject: Fritz 6 repetition bug?!

Author: Torstein Hall

Date: 09:26:35 09/09/01


After the following moves we reach this position:


Kasparov,G (2851) - Shirov,A (2751) [C11]
Fujitsu-Siemens Giants Frankfurt GER (3), 23.06.2000
[Fritz 6 (180s)]

C11: French: Classical System: 4 e5 and 4 Bg5 dxe4

29.Qxe6+ Kg7 30.Qh6+ Kg8 31.Qg6+ Kh8 32.Qh6+ Kg8

[D]5rk1/pp6/2b4Q/2q3P1/7P/P7/1PP2P2/2KR4 w - - 0 33

When Fritz has the gamescore it wants to play 33.Rd6 whish probably wins, but
takes a lot longer. If the game score is not given to Fritz it want to play
33.Qe6+ like Kasparov did. This must be a repetition bug?! Crafty has no problem
to see that Qe6+ is the fastest win even with the gamescore. By the way, the
game continued:


33.Qe6+ Kg7? 34.Rd6 Be8 35.Qe7+ 1-0
