I don't think there is much doubt that Crafty does a lot of things better than
Junior. Probably even Amir Ban would agree with that.

On the other hand Junior does some things better than Crafty. Most noteably,
Junior is significantly faster than Crafty. But there might be some more subtle
things Junior does well also.

All the indications are that there is not much difference in strength between
the two. A match would be very interesting. But so would almost any competition
between the top 20 or so programs.
