Well, in view of the game yesterday, which went not very lucky for van der Wiel,
I personally doubt that Rebel (or any program) has a realistic chance to win
this match.

I am convinced that van der Wiel's style to play chess against a computer would
give trouble to any program.
Basically, all programs have similar problems against this style. For me, Rebel
is here a representant of a modern top program. I do not believe that other
toppers would do much better (or much worse).
