One of the reasons for buying the >Palm was the death of my Novag Sapphire II. I don't think Chess Tiger is as >strong as the Sapphire II. Granted they both beat me handily (I'm about 1500 >USCF), but I have fought Chess Tiger to a draw playing G10. Mostly I play it on >it's training levels and win some lose some. I'm still very happy with the >Palm/Chess Tiger combination, I'm just not sure how happy someone stronger than >I am would be. Anyone else have opinions on strength of Chess Tiger on the Palm? > >Scott Gibson I do not have palm tiger or Sapphire II but my guess is that people underestimate palm tiger. palm tiger is close o 2100 ssdf rating and it is old palm tiger(14.9 and not 15) palmtiger 15 is probably 50 elo stronger that means 2150 ssdf rating. 2150 ssdf rating means 2250 fide rating because ssdf rating was eqvivalent to fide rating in the low level before ssdf reduced 100 elo from ssdf. 2250 fide rating is eqvivalent to 2350 uscf rating based on my knowledge and it means that palm tiger 15 is estimated to be 2350 uscf rating against humans.
