But now, even though computers are much better, it's too >much of a known fact. You can't fool anyone anymore. I can. My experience is that part of my opponents do not use computers inspite of the fact that they have the right to do it. Players who use programs do not give them hours to calculate in most of the cases. The games are by letters Maybe the situation is different with games by email when more players use computers to help them but I know that rozenberg is also playing games by email. And you yourself can't >expect many pushovers in a correspondence tournament since ANYONE can give you a >tough game with a simple unedited junior 6a or fritz 6a etc.and will. The game that I posted is from 1999-2000 and my opponent resigned only 3 days ago. > I think that 8 years ago one could have been rewarded quite well from >consulting computer programs, as the assistance they could provide was a bit >more imho than what the public was aware of. Used creatively-of course. >Shimon Taylor 8 years ago programs were clearly weaker than today so I believe that a chess program could not do better 8 years ago. Uri
