Aristarch 4.50 won the last game, with an inpressive score of 14.5 out of
30. I thought that Shredder 8 without its Shredder.ctg opening book was going to
win with a bigger margin, since the opening  doesn't make much of a difference
with a good engine like shredder 8 that has good learning. It could be that
shredder 8 opening worth as much as 55 to 65 rating points. We can only find out
how strong Aristach 4.50 really is, if the SSDF decide to test Aristarch 4.50.
My prediction is that it could be around 2675 at standard SSDF time control.
