In the case of Deep Junior and Deep Fritz playing against different opponents is a more accurate way of knowing the real strength of the programs, since it is impossible to prepare diferent opening lines against so many GMs and be as sucessful as preparing months in advance as it has been in all the Rebel GM Challenges.
