This result tell me that under chessbase Deep Sjeng is probably not
significantly better engine than Crafty(I am talking only about the engine
and not about book).

I remember that sjeng12.13 did nice results in your tournament with unified book
(120/40) and the result cause me to wonder if one of the following is correct.

1)Deep Sjeng suffers in blitz from the fact that it is not
a native winboard engine and it can win against Crafty19.03xx
under winboard.

2)The main improvement in strength in Deep sjeng relative to sjeng12.13
is the book and not the engine.

I assume in this discussion that the claim that Deep sjeng is 200 elo stronger
than Sjeng12.13 is correct.

It may be interesting if you can test movei under the same conditions against
crafty.
I do not know if the version that I sent you can work in Fritz gui
but I read that the public version can work in Fritz when you use
Winboard to UCI adaptor or translator to fool Fritz into thinking that
it is a UCI engine.

I did not do special changes so I hope that it can work.

I expect the worse after the result of Deep Sjeng against Crafty
but I will be happy to know what is movei's result.
