Junior's career record (since 1994) against GM's has 10 games in tournament play
scoring 4:6 (2+ 4= 4-). This does not count active games.

Junior's official rating as of March 31st is 2361 (it is the 94th rank in
Israel). I think the latest results (Jubilee Active & Dov Porat) will add 20-30
points. This is the result of starting at 1900 and playing in tournaments for
4.5 years.

I think just by playing more frequently it would have been possible to get 100
more rating points. The program has been performing consistently at the 2500 TPR
level for the past 3 years.
