One match is not enough to tell. So far, in my games Gambit is beating everything, but not as clearly as that 15-7. I got Gambit about a week ago, so it's too early to tell. But as things are now, I would say that either Tiger 13 or Gambit will top the SSDF list. By how much, no idea. By the way, I think that the SSDF should play with both engines, since they are so different. Aside from results and ratings, Gambit plays much more aggressive than Tiger or any other program I use. Bertil will like it a lot. Enrique
