Both Deep Fritz8 and Hiarcs9 are losing against chessmaster of Johan de koning.

Saying that they lose against Mionotaur and Yoda is misleading because a lot of
people do not know that they are personality of chessmaster and I know it only
because of reading your previous post.


As far as I know CM is one of the top engines(unlike Atistarch CM is not an
amateur) and I think that CM is the favourite to win the tournament not because
it is better but because it has more entries than every other participant.

If I need to guess one participant that is going to win then I choose shredder
but if I need to guess one programmer that is going to win then I guess Johan de
koning.

Of course both guesses cannot be right.
