What program is the best depends in my opinion on the style of the game. If you have closed positions, Fritz doesn't help much. Tiger for example is better in my opinion. If I have a tactical position, it doesn't matter if the program is a bit worse or better in tactics than the other. Every top programm is far better in tactics than me and is far enough. So I need a program that has a better idea of playing in closed positions.
