This machine would expect to win around 1 of every >16 games vs a 2700 opponent. 100% score is possible if the opponent does not have a learning function. I do not know if Fidelity has a learning function. It is impossible to know the score by the rating because the rating is based on games against many opponents and it is possible that Fidelity has problems against one opponent. The only way to know is by games. Uri
