What is the definition of anti-comp
people can always claim that if you beat the program that you used anti-comp
strategy because you pushed it into position that you understand more than the
program.
Suppose a player likes to play close positions not only against computers and
beat the program by going into a close position.
Are you going to say that he used anti-comp strategy?
