Have you considered he may have "prepared". It maybe that Hydra is just that strong.... I am sure we will have more matches to confirm this outcome. My guess is Hydra is that strong because, PC programs on off the self PC's have played the Top GM's (Kramnik, Kasparov, Bareev, and others) And did not lose to the GM's. Hydra should be much stronger with its hardware advantage, over PC chess programs. So the results are a top 10 GM got crushed..... No matter the outcome tomorrow.
