Still, he lost. >so human involvemnent in this case is a handicap. This conclusion is wrong. The engines had more time because Nickel did not buy a computer for every opponent. Nickel could expect to lose part of the games also without using his brain because of time advantage of the opponents when they run 24 hours about the moves when he can use them only for maybe 1/10 of that time. 10:1 time advantage is significant even at correspondence game inspite of diminishing returns.
