No.  But you're playing Junior against other programs and it's winning 90-95% of
the games?  That's pretty good.  I don't think you can have the other 5-10%.
You could try upgrading your computer, but don't expect miracles from that.  You
could also look over Steve Lopez's T-Notes on the Chessbase sites.


But again, you probably can't get the other 5-10%, Junior may be good, but I
don't think it's going to be that good.
