Go up one level in this thread


To me it looks like this:

Comps play 2800 level - yes - under certain circumstances.  Give them wide open
positions - they play like a 2800 player.  Let them play in a Category 12-14
tournament - and they walk away win the first prize.

They are like Supermen with a weakness (kryptonite, which is Anti Computer
Chess).  Let them play special players like Mr Nemeth, and these comps show some
stupidity.

I agree partially with the previous post - I can't really consider comps an
ideally solid 2800 elo rated player if they can be consistently beaten (ask
eduard nementh) or halted to a draw.  Can Kasparov be constantly beaten by
someone whose rating is much lower than his?
