I've checked my database of games and the problem has only occured lately with the Junior 5 vs Fritz 5.32. And the problem is not just with Fritz 5.32 as "Master", it also happens with Fritz as "Slave". Of my last 52 games between Junior 5.0 and Fritz 5.32 Junior 5 won 19 games with white using those two openings. Most of the games are identical untill the game is already won. A few of the games are identical to the end. If Fritz 5.32 is learning during auto232 matches then it's "Learning" is not very smart. In games against Nimzo99 for example I can see where Junior 5 tried to repeat games but Nimzo would not let it happen. Anyway, it's just an observation. If I were the programmer of Fritz I would want to fix this problem. This is especially true if SSDF is going to play any future games of Junior 5 vs Fritz 5.32. Jim Walker
