Hello!

I dont understand this... Then, in humans games should be the same thing.
but this not happen in humans games. When a GM won against another GM, for
example for 10-4 or 12-7 in a match, all the people say that he is clearly
better, but in computer games is very different.  People say that they need to
look more, and more, and more games to know exactly what program is really
better..  WHY?

In human games, GM´s plays for about 20-24 games max in a match. Too in World
championship matches.  And when the Grandmaster won his match, all the people
say : ok, the grandmaster that won is really better in chess than the other GM.

I dont understand, why this not happen in Computer games.
