I do not think that fritz played so bad.
I also do not think that Tiger or Hiarcs could do better when Kramnik gets the
program before the game.

They also do stupid mistakes that kramnik may take adantage of them.
It seems that some people expect too much from Fritz.

I think that 25% against kramnik is an excellent result for Fritz when kramnik
gets the machine before the game.

Fritz in the Israeli league could not even get a performance of 2500 and
I suspect that the opponents did less preperation than kramnik(inspite of the
fact that the teams could choose the opponent to play against the computer).


Fritz did not use more than one processor in the Israeli league but more
processors+better software can give at most 100-200 elo and the preperation of
kramnik is reducing it to 0-100 elo.

It means that performance of 2600 against kramnik is excellent for Fritz
