The aegon tournament was a long time ago so I cannot count it today. Rebel did the best result in Israel against humans but you can blame the operator of shredder for this fact. If you compare Junior's results in dortmund with other results you can see that Junior did the best results so the picture is not clear. Rebel may be the best against humans but I am not sure about it. The meaning of being the best against humans is also not clear because it is possible that one program is best in winning weak players when another program is best in playing against strong players. >have you played yourself many programs? >i can say, that i sometimes can survive against tiger, seldom shredder and >fritz, but i have not a single draw against rebel. only losses! It proves that Rebel is the best against you but it does not prove that Rebel is the best against humans. Uri
