Maybe he means to say that Fritz7 can beat him in 30 moves when Rebel  xp needs
31 moves so rebel is too weak to beat him in 30 moves.


I did not try to compare the top programs in that way but I suspect that the
program that can beat humans in less moves is not the best program in regular
games.

If someone is interested then it is possible to do a tournament between chess
programs and weak players when the target of the programs should be to mate as
fast as possible when the target of the weak players should be to lose in more
moves.

The program that checkmate in the smallest average number of moves can be
declared as the winner.
