Hi,

In every Search() I test repetition from the current node back to the last
capture or pawn move. Formerly, If *two* same positions occur I return 0.
This leads to an unfavorable outcome when there is two repetitions my
program always think every move after that point is a draw. Then I made
change to return draw after 3 repetitions. It can solve the problem but quite
often the program makes 2 repetitions intentionally. How u fix this?

Thanks for your comments,
Teerapong
