I did not mean to DB when I made the statement that Fritz at 2M nodes per second could do better results against the same opponents but to Deep thought. I think that Fritz has a problem against humans because it is commercial so the opponents can know the weaknesses of it from experience. Deep thought was not commercial so the opponents cannot play against it at home. They could see previous games of Deep thought but it is not the same. Uri
