I already beated ICCF IM and even an ICCF GM in the israeli correspondence championship. I have one win from one game against GM Abir Har aven I also have 1.5 out of 2 against IM pinhas azar(in the final I only drew but I beated him in the previous stage). 2600 is not the top 3 of the world in correspondence chess. I also did not say that I can be sure of beating or drawing an IM in correspondence games. Games of me against a correspondence IM are also not going to prove something about the level of computers because if I play and take the games serously I may not play the moves of the comuter(there were few cases when I played moves that were not suggested by chess programs). If we want to test the level of the computers then we should use the same program for all the games and somebody with fast hardware that volunteer to play the games. I believe that I could get more than 50% against average rating that is close to 2450 in the Israeli final by this way but a possible result of 4.5 or 5 out of 8 was not enough to win the israeli final and my result was 6.5 out of 8.
