Exactly and Huebner is 2600 and very old and not that actively playing
like Van Wely of course and Huebner never played a match
versus computers before at slow level (or it must have been 10 years
ago).

He is old enough to no longer have the
ambition to proof himself.

Van Wely is nearly 2700 and has those ambitions.

We will see.
