Software against humans is also possible in the right conditions.

I believe that every player with a rating of at least 1500 who knows something
about computers can beat every program in a match when you only let me to choose
the initial position and the program is going to have to play the same position
with white and black.

A program that can play perfect chess can get a score of at least 1-1 against
1500 players in these conditions but I believe that 1500 players can get 2-0
against everything.

The match is going to be fair in the meaning that not the 1500 player and not
the program are going to do previous analysis of the position that I compose and
the first time that the sides are going to see the position is in the beginning
of the first game.
