Human playing against human or against machine, may be like two different games
completely. Often, someone who is good at one mind game could do quite well in a
different mind game if he really studies it well, but that might not always be
the case. I hope that clears things up a bit more!
 The only thing in common might be most of the legal rules, but the actual games
and techniques are different rules entirely.
