I never said that the results were not normal. But somehow, I don't seem to be speaking the same language as everyone here. I'm saying that time after time when Junior 7 plays a match with Fritz 7, Fritz loses many games near the beginning, but then catches up and overtakes. EVERY TIME (almost). That almost proves that the reason is because of the learning function. But this time, the samwe thing happened at the beginning, and then Fritz overtook Junior as usual, yes, but THIS time, it happened again it was said above, that Junior was catching up again towards the end. Usually it's the other way round. So why was that? Maybe the learning function was reset for Fritz, so it had to start learning again? THAT was my question. S.Taylor
