hmmm,
what was your expectation? Faile to win? no no no, let me guess....... its
probably Ant!!
You cant have *single* logical 'expectation' when you have programs like (who is
as strong as) junior6, Frictz6, hiarcs, comet, crafty,nimzo, lil goliath, sos,
anmon, yace in a single tournament.
they are all strong enough to win any tournament.
It is *ussual* to see commercial programs (eg, fritz, junior) to win most
tournys, but when you see _not so likely_ programs (or not so strong) to win,
actually 'win', that is when the question of "not enough games" come out....
for swisses definately.........
now dont tell me Phalanax is the best in this pack..
