Fritz is better than 2600 in open positions and 2200 in closed position. 2900 in open positions and 2500 in closed position seems to be more realistic. A computer with rating of 2600 in open positions and 2200 in closed position could not get performance of more than 2400 against humans even if the humans do no special preperation and old Fritz got prerformance of more than 2400 in the israeli league on hardware that is clearly slower than the hardware against kramnik even after part of the humans did special preperation. > >So how can one expect a 2200 player to win against a 2700 (about) one? > >The best chances for a program to get and advanted against such a strong player >are to be able to surprise him in the opening phase, but how the match is set it >will be the opposite I do not believe that Kramnik is going to get the opening book of Deep Fritz before the match.
