They have no chance because of null move pruning.
Chessmaster may have better chance because I believe that it does not use the
wrong null move algorithm(I define the wrong null move algorithm as null move
algorithm that can cause stupid blunders like not finding mate in 2).

Yace is not using the wrong null move algorithm and I believe that the same is
for chessmaster.
