IIRC Arno Nickel regarded the 6 games against the planets as a kind of
experiment. He didn't play a particular anti-computer strategy.

In this respect it differs surely from the Hydra-match, where he probably tried
to find weak points of his opponent. At least in the first two games he was
successful.
