They beat me consistently in normal chess already. I think in shuffle chess
I would even do worse. All the familiar patterns for me would be gone.
The computer on the other hand would just blissfully go about its
calculating business.

 What is the consensus on humans vs computers
in shuffle chess? Would an IM for example have a better chance in regular
or shuffle chess? Any data out there or opinions expressed by those who
play shuffle chess?
