Go up one level in this thread


I want to give to other things to consider:

1. Maybe Rybka various beta releases used for this tests are quite variable in
strength. Matches Hiarcs10 - Fruit2.2.1 are generally much more close and equal.

2. All these matches with about 30-40 games are heavily influenced by
statistics. Not enough games to give a clear picture. Maybe after 1000 games the
results would be much closer.

regards
Andy
