I disagree. Fritz's ssdf rating is always more than Junior's rating Fritz came second in the last WMCCC when Junior was less succesful. Fritz failed in the israeli league against humans when Junior got better result. > >In the past, at Aegon, programs like Fritz and Rebel used to show that they >could do well against humans (if my memory serves me correctly), wheras Junior >used to do well in the computer championships (winning WMCCC Paris 97, for >example). Winning WMCCC in paris 97 is not relevant because it was an old version of Junior that is not similiar to the version of today. I do not know about a computer tournament after 97 when Junior got better result than Fritz when I know about 2 tournaments when Fritz got better results than Junior(WCCC of 1999 when Shredder won and Fritz came third place and the last WMCCC of 2000).
