I'm just observing some facts , specialized machines like Hydra did crush a
strong GM that did his best against this monster...if you say that Hydra is a
strategical patzer, Michael Adams and other people doesn't say so...the machine
did play as a god of chess for them.
That single game doesn't say nothing to me , I trust more a GM than your
opinion...with all the respect for your opinion.
