To add some more: Fritz 5.32 P200 has a SSDF ELO of 2497, Fruit 2.2.1 A1200
an ELO of 2853. Difference is 356 so according to the ELO table, Fruit is
expected to score about 89%, that is 37.5 points in the match.

Fruit scores 40.5 points, a bit higher than expected, but it's not many games.

What would you say is the problem with these matches ?
