I run rebel tiger 14 on ICC and I've noticed that during a specific combination
on move... 17Bxd4+ resulting invariably in the loss of the bishop and ultimately
the game.  I'm not sure I'm interpreting this correctly.  Can someone tell me if
black's sacrifice is done on purpose or is it a program glitch?  This has
happened several times.

Thank you for any help.

Freddie.
