Yes, but I read a claim that it is 200 elo better than Sjeng12.13 and sjeng12.13 is not supposed to be better than 200 elo worse than crafty. I also read matches when Deep Sjeng beated crafty convincingly and people asked about results against Ruffian. After seeing it losing 47-37 then the result is a clear disappointment. I do not say that losing 47-37 against crafty is always a disappointment for a commercial engine and the disappointment is mainly because of the claim that Deep Sjeng is significantly better than Sjeng12.13 when Sjeng12.13 is supposed to be only slightly weaker than crafty based on results that GCP posted in the winboard forum(the results were not in long time control games). I also remember that GCP claimed that Deep Sjeng is already better than Crafty in this forum. Uri
