>For example Chessmaster 5555 on Kai Luebke's web page >"http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Ring/8448/chessindex2.html" in 40/2 games >has won 29 games, drawn 13, lost 11 games.

Kai just sent me an upgrade of his tournament info. CM5555 is beating Rebel 9 with score 6:2! How else one can name the program if not a MONSTER after seeing this score? :-) > >This is the standard uscf formula of adding 400 points to opponents ratings for >wins, and subtracting 400 for losses, then dividing by the number of games >played for a provisional rating. > >The opponents were Rebel9 & 8, Mchess 7, Fritz 5, Hiarcs 4 & 6, crafty 14.8, >Junior 4.6, and Genius 5.
