It is no longer an issue for me as it is pretty common and there is seldom any thing done about it. I have comp operators tell me all the time this guy or that one uses a program. And when I see someone make 4-5 moves in a row that the comp expects its a pretty good bet he is using a program. Having watched thousands of games against GM's and programs you get a feel for how games play out. It is rare for GM's to contiuously make moves the program is expecting. While the % may vary from program to program, during a game one can expect that programs will anticipate the others move better than half the time. Sometimes to even 75%. Shep has some statistics on this which several months ago I posted. TP
