Subject: surprising result in correspondence games

I found that the swiss IM  Bela Toth scored 9/11(7 wins and 4 draws) in the
first board of the olympiad.

For me it is a very surprising result.

I know that very good results are possible because a lot of players do not use
computers for many hours per move and I did +7 =3 against weak opposition in the
preliminary olympiad board 6 but I thought that similiar result is impossible
against first board of the final(not the preliminary olympiad).

It may be interesting if most of the wins of Toth were achieved by blunders that
the top programs can avoid after a long time(at least it was the case for most
of my wins when I did +7 =3 in the preliminary olympiad)
