I do not like to see shredder wins again and again when it is clear from results of the ssdf and other people who play comp-comp games that there is no big difference between the level of shredder and the other top commercial programs(shredder even seems to be slightly inferior relative to Fritz). I hope that programmers do something against the opening preperation of shredder. I guess that at world championships shredder gets often positions that the opponent does not know to play(for example it got in this tournament against Junior position that Junior did not know to play). It is not the first time that it happens and I know about a previous case when Junior blundered in the opening against shredder but fortunately it played well enough to win a lost position(shredder lost a position that it evaluated as +5). It seems to me that it is not luck but opening preperation. Uri
