Junior with white won after
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.0-0 b5
6.Bb3 Be7 7.Re1 0-0 8.c3 d6 9.h3 Na5 10.Bc2 c5
11.d4 Qc7 12.Nbd2(the 4th nunn position)
12...cxd4 13.cxd4 Bb7 14.a4 Rfc8 15.Bd3 b4 16.Nb3 Nd7
17.Nxa5 Qxa5 18.Bd2 Bf6 19.d5 Be7 20.Be2 f5
(the computer evaluate the position as equality until move 25)
21.exf5  Rab8   22.Bg5 Bf6
23.Qd2 0.01/16 Rc7 0.00/12
24.Rac1 0.01/15 Rbc8 0.09/13
25.Be3 0.01/16 Bd8 0.22/13(Be7)
26.Ng5 0.18/16(Rxc7) Bxg5 0.03/13 (Rxc1)
27.Rxc7 0.35/16 Rxc7 0.38/14
28.Bxg5 0.64/16 Qxa4 0.47/13
29.Be7 1.24/16 b3 1.41/13(the engines see too late
that Rc2 is bad after Qg5 Rxe2 Rxe2 Qd1+ Kh2
Qxe2 f6 because programs do not understand king's danger).

30.Bd1 1.71/16 Rc5 1.50/13(Qd4)
31.Bxd6 2.09/16 Qa5 2.19/14
32.Qe3 2.13/16(Qxa5) Rc1 2.38/13
33.Rf1 Ra1 34.Bxe5 Bxd5 35.Bc3 Qd8 36.Qd2 3.68/16 Qa8
37.Qg5 Qf8 38.f6 Nxf6 39.Bxf6 Bc4 40.Be7 h6
41.Qg4 Qf7 42.Re1 Be6 43.Qh4 3.70/16(fritz expected Rxe6)
(the simplest way was to take e6 but Junior is slow at won position)
43... a5 3.63/12(Rb1)
44.Bd6 Qd7
45.Qd4 3.78/16 Rc1
46.Qf4 3.78/16 Rb1
47.Qd2 3.78/15 a4
48.Re4 3.72/16(after some waiting move Junior find the way
to win with a bishop adventage) Ra1 49.Rd4 Kh7
50.Ba3 Qb5 51.Kh2 Bf5 52.Be2 Qc6 53.Qf4 Qc8 54.Rc4 Qe6
55.Bf8 Re1 56.Rc7 Rxe2 10.59/13  57.Rxg7+ 6.79/14(Bxg7 is faster)
57...Kh8 58.Re7 Qxe7 59.Rxe7 Bxe7 60.Qxh6+ Kg8
61.Qxh6+ Kg8 61.Qg5+ Rg7 62.Qxf5 and white won.

maybe I should give Junior smaller hash tables
I saw that with 20000Kbytes it is faster than with 100000 (not
a big difference).
 it computes less nodes for the same depth with big hash tables
but junior wastes a longer time to compute less nodes.

I am not sure about it because maybe it can get to a better
result at the same depth with big hashtables.

game 7 is not finished and the result is now 5:2 for fritz5

I think the nunn match benefits fritz because there is a repeating
motiv of king's danger that both programs do not understand
and in this case the faster program is better.

this is not a fair match because Junior is slower by 20%
as  a fritz engine
I cannot do a fair match because chessbase is for fritz5
so I cannot do a match that Junior will have more time.
I can do it by hand but I need to spend too much time about it.
