The pgn header has this tag:

[TimeControl "60/60:0/0:0/0"]

I am a bit confused by it. Game ends after 60 moves, with a 60 second time limit?

Thanks for this miniature game.
I tried latest SF dev version if it can avoid 17.Qh6?? and it did after 16 seconds.
Was best move on first second of search but after 16 seconds, it was out of top 20 in a
Multi-PV.

17.Qh6 is nowhere to be found in a multi-pv == 20 , but that move was at top 1 just 15 seconds ago.

Set time control to 60/1 and you'll have a lot more rare games to report.
