Subject: Which Programs or Program gives you the most trouble and why?

For me the most difficult programs to play against and Beat are in this order

1. Rebel Century- the games usually last under 30 moves, i am usually tactically
outplayed quickly, which is surprising since rebel is not known for it's
tactical play

2. Mchess8- This program is a tactical monster, I consider myself a tactical
player and often try to mix it up tactically with the computer, ofcourse this is
suicide, especially against Mchess formerly known as the Kasparov of Computer
chess.

3.  Hiarcs7.32- I also get beat very quickly against hiarcs, it seems I can
never even remotely get an attack, and if I do hiarcs is always one tempo ahead
of me. It's defensive capabilities is easily around 2650.


Ironically the Well known tactical Programs like Fritz , Chessmaster, and Junior
I am usually able to go an extended distance, often to the late endgame, this i
don't understand, ofcourse I lose everytime so I guess the amount of moves
doesn't really matter
