Update #3

14 wins
4 losses
15 draws

33 of 1000 games played
Name of the tournament: Arena tournament
Site/ Country: WIN-64-MB, United States
Level: Blitz 10/10
Hardware: Dual AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244 1804 MHz with 2,046 MB Memory

The games are amazing to watch -- even these short 10/10 games ( not that short
- they take about about 40 minutes to play and the indicated search depth is 15
to 20 ply).  Watching these games reminds me of of games on ICC 6 or 7 years ago
when titled players (GMs and IMs) could pretty much handle a pc program and do
what they want with it.  Rybka can pretty much handle Shredder 8 and play almost
any opening - come out the opening fairly even and simply outplay Shredder for
the rest of the game.
