I saw the Recorded game below

The Beginner declared win as it saw a Mate in 4.
It shouldn't do that, it should play out the mate, unless I resign.
TheGetClubprogram did work more-or-less
correctly in two recent draws against me; but
for all we know, it may have only done so
because it thought it was "saving" an inferior
position by granting the draw. When ahead
Yes, I have seen many games wwhere Draw has come by repitition of
moves.
When GetClub is at advantage, I have told it to change its move So
that repetition with draw do not happen. So After 2 repetition it
changes its move to avoid draw.
It did not do that and the game in question was a draw according to the
repetition rule:
on move 86 (reptition number 1 is 87.Kf2, then 89.Kf2, then 91.Kf2, when
making this move I should have had the option to claim a draw, then
further reptitions: 93.Kf2, 95.Kf2, 97.Kf2, 99.Kf2, only then did the
computer deviate):
8/8/8/4k3/8/4K1r1/7n/8 w
(white king on e3, black king on e5, black knight on h2, black rook
checks on g3)

Here the computer stopped to play, hence obviously he resigned

.
In fact above there was not a 3-fold repetition, it was a 7-fold
repetition of the same position.
