Hi Uri,

Don't be so sure. I think Chrilly is working hard, and preparing something
new. You will see..

The problem with public engines, like Rybka, is that their playing style
and weaknesses could be studied slowly and carefully. Now, everyone knows how to
play against Fritz or Shredder. But no one is able to sparing with Hydra, only
Chrilly knows details.

In the possible future match between Hydra and Rybka the element of surprise,
especial in opening books, will playing the major role.

It is very hard to anticipate overall results right now.
