[Snipped the garbage and nonesense] >Anand plays (half)open positions, let's not forget that. On paper >ideal for computer. Only problem is that Anand is a super-GM who is simply >in these positions also better than computer. Add to that that he >never lost a slow level match ever against computer. Against rebel he >won with 1.5 - 0.5. Still good from rebel that it drew a game against >Anand. [From the Rebel Site:] In all 8 games Rebel played very attractive chess resulting in a 5 -3 victory for Rebel. Spectators said that Rebel played very human alike and that they hardly could believe a computer was playing these games. This was perhaps the best compliment the Rebel-team got since this has been the goal of Rebel since its birth 17 years ago. The experimental ANTI GRANDMASTER software worked very well against Anand. In all 8 games Rebel was able to create chances and wasn't strangled as we have seen in the past when computers played against strong Grand Masters. No, in most of the games it was Rebel who took the initiative and dictated the game. Anti-GM is a new exciting development which has a great future and potential. It was tried against Anand as first human chess player and it worked. Anti-GM will be developed further in the future as it is expected to gain even more playing strength when facing the world human chess top. In about 2 months (september / october) we will release Rebel 10.0 and it will have the SAME chess engine that has played Vishy Anand so you will be able to find out yourself about ANTI-GM. [End of snip from Rebel site.] So how is 1.5 - 0.5 there? I count _eight_ games. Do you even know what the hell you are talking about most times between your rants and raves?
