All of Van der Wiel games except the one against Fritz sss were played in 1997
and earlier. That’s 4 years ago. A long time for chess programs. That’s 164 SSDF
points. So he played only 1 game with the current programs and on current
computers. 1 game does not make him a computer killer against today’s smarter
programs running on today’s faster computers. Deep Junior is not Fritz sss.
Fritz sss was running on P3 500 mhz 4 processor. Deep Junior was running on much
faster P3 700 mhz 8 processor. Van der Wiel would have no chance in a 6 game
match with Deep Junior on an 8 processor.
