Poor play? :-) (Just one sidenote before Kurt's answer:) Shredder 8 currently has 22.5/47 = 47,87% This is an Elo performance difference of -15 Elo (only), against top competition in this tournament. King ist 4.5 points ahead, but there are 23 more games to play by every engine. But it could be one of the rare cases, where either Shredder 7.04 and/or Fritz 7/8 participate but none of them ranks #1 or #2. This would certainly be surprising... the obivious explanation (or assumption) would be the book which I've generated, which is only 10 plies deep. OTOH this is comparable with tournaments, where predefined opening variants are used. Regards, M.Scheidl
