This is obviously a major part of his concept against >Fritz. I've compared the game with the Fritz7.ctg opening, which indicates (too) that 13.f4 was the last move from the book. I didn't compare games #1 and #2 with the F7 book, but I guess the early exchange of the queens was from the book in theses game too. So you can watch if comments differentiate that it wasn't the engine's decision each, but the book's :o) (I don't claim that the engine wouldn't have exchanged the queens as well.) Regards, M.Scheidl
