Interesting.  The programs achieved a 2641 performance over the 49 game series
against opponents with average ratings of 2568.

I expect GM Kramnik (rated 2795) to demolish DF in the 8 game match since GM
Kramnik will have 3 months to prepare.  Adding in the 8 games and assuming 8
wins for Kramnik yeilds a performance of 2607 against opponents with an average
ratine of 2600 over 57 games.  This is a worst case evaluation, so the programs
rating will go up if DF gets .5 or more in the match.  :)

If you put 29 to 28 into your program, it looks like they are roughly even, but
to get close to even, the World Champ will need to study the program for 3
months and win all 8 games.
