It seems to me that this is an illusion.I mean about 1500 Elo that you have.
One just has to go over Rebel's lastest Gm Match Crush (wanderViel) to see
how bad GM's play(or Kasparov Deeper Blue).The 1500 Elo player is not even
comparable to a Computer Program.AnyWay there is nothing a 1500 player can
do that a compp cannot.
