The follow 2 comments is of what I have noticed according to real computer vs
computer tournaments on standard time controls.

I think the strength difference between Crafty and Fritz is littler on standard
timecontrols. Since Fritz is better tactical it's logical it can play better
Bltiz. Crafty is better in endgames. Against various engines crafties has
swindled its way trough. In openings, middlegame and tactics Fritz is better
than Crafty.

So the big deal with Crafty on tournaments is to not get in openingstraps and
get a reasonable drawish positition against Fritz, the rest will follow since of
it's perfect endgame play. The Fritz team tries to get in advantage out of the
opening in an unstable positions with lot's of strategical elements.
