Subject: To SteveB - Senator and repetition draws

Hi Steve,

Dunno if you recall this topic from a few weeks ago where I mentioned the cases
where my senator module would allow repetition draws in positions where it
clearly has a winning advantage.

I've got such a position for you.

[D] 3b1rk1/1R6/5p2/q7/8/8/7R/6K1 w - - 0 1

My Mephisto Chess Challenger immediately responds to 1. Rg2+ with Qg5. The
senator on the other hand allows the repetition draw, irrespective of the amount
of thinking time I allow it. The senator, tight the the last moment, evaluates
the position as about a 7 pawn advantage for black.

I would love to hear from other owners of Senator modules on this little
problem.

Regards,
Jaco
