He doesn't claim to do something else AFAIK. He _is_ a good player who can see the weak spots of computer programs (or books). I saw him playing on playchess as well but didn't saw him winning either. But there are a few other guys on playchess as well who win constantly against even the strongest computers/program although it's no fun to watch them as they only close the position and start to move the king back and forth to win on time. E. Nemeth at least plays chess. Roman
