I do not believe it.
There are 2200 players that can draw part of the games with anand.

Arnold hasidovsky(player with rating near 2200) drew against 3 computers in the

I do not think that you are right and I think that we should give opportunity
also to weaker players.

If you do not want to see many 2200 players who claim that they are
anti-computer experts then there should be some money risk for people who lose
6-0 or 5.5-0.5.

Hydra may decide about open challange when humans pay 1000$ for participating in
a match of 6 games and get 500$ for every draw and 1500$ for every win.
