Sometimes it happens that i play against my computer and manage a drawing/winning position after trading pieces very fast. , my opinion is that there are very few people in the world that can hold the enormous strength of a ssdf top 5 in a classical time control. Personally, i think closing the position or trading pieces won't work against Shredder or Junior, maybe if she plays Crafty or Yace she might have a chance, but still 50/50, or better for the computer.
