Hello all, Text taken from the Rebel Home Page. If there are any last minute changes Amir or I will inform you. If there is enough interest for such live games I consider the possibility to make it a fixed event, say "Game of the Month" and play such a LIVE game each month against other opponents too. The LIFE coverage is at: http://www.rebel.nl/ChessTutor/live/html" - Ed - On July 1 Rebel10 (experimental) will play one LIVE test game against the reigning World Champion chess program Junior from Amir Ban (Israel). Rebel10 (experimental) is the same program that will play a 8-game match against Vishy Anand this month including the special anti-GM settings. Junior 5.0 (in testing) is the successor of Junior 4.0 which became World Champion last year in Paris. Junior 5.0 will be released by ChessBase soon. Goal of this LIVE game is to test the accessibility of the Rebel Home Page during the LIVE coverage for the real event Rebel vs Vishy Anand from July 21 till July 23. Rebel will play on a Pentium-II 266 Mhz running under Windows 95 with 60 Mb hash tables. Junior 5.0 will play on a Pentium-II 333 Mhz and 80 Mb memory. Because of the small hardware advantage of Junior, Rebel will play with the white pieces. The level of play is 2 hours for the whole game for each side. The LIVE game will start wednesday July 1 at 18:00 AMSTERDAM time. There is a small chance the starting hour might change. There is NO NEED to press the REFRESH button of your browser. Moves played by Junior and Rebel will automatically appear on your screen. Rebel will include its analysis (time, main variation, ply depth, score) on the screen. To follow the live game requires a Java enabled browser.
