Unless Mike Rohdes has fallen off badly in the last year or so...I think he can
beat Rebel at 40/2 hours. I have played some speed games online with him and he
I think is the only GM I did not beat or even draw with a computer, and thats at
speed chess. If I remember right I played him 4 times, and lost 4 times badly.
Dlugy the top rated player on ICC I played 5 times with the same program, and
won 5-0.

The reason I think he plays so strong against computers is he has no fear of
them, and shows them no respect. That was the message I got from replaying the
games.

So it is not a shock to me that GM Rohdes is the first to play Rebel.
