Playing even 99% of the GM moves is not enough, because just one different move would change a lot in the game. Still adding a lot of speedness to your machine, you could not find that different move. GM's brain doesn't run in a way that we can compare to machine. GM's brain (and ours brain too) works using acknowledgment, fantasy, intelligence and... a bit of fortune ;-) After all, your test could be interesting, from the programmer's side of view. Ciao!!!
