Example:Fritz has different evaluation functions for the middlegame and for the endgame. The problem is that if the position on the board is from the middlegame then Fritz is using an evaluation function that assume that the position is from the middlegame and it is wrong because the position after trading queens is an endgame position. I think that Fritz believes that white has problems with the king safety in the position that I posted and it does not understand that after trading queens it has not these problems because it does not use the right evaluation function. It knows to use the right evaluation function only if the position on the board is without queens. I guess that the programmer of Fritz did it to do Fritz faster. Uri
