Very often it is too optimistic, but I have also seen many occasions where Fritz is too pessimistic and it is the Shredder eval which is the more accurate. I have seen many times where Fritz will think a position is dead = (0.00 eval) when one side is in fact clearly better. None of the chess engines are oracles of truth when it comes to position evaluation. Robin
