Hi Mark,
   What is your opinion that`s going around about Hiarcs7.32 in single engine
tests having an advantage because it retains its hash table information between
moves that the other programs can`t do and there is no thinking on opponents
time so this makes it an advantage to Hiarcs and thus this is why its kicking
butt in all the single engine games!!

PS. I also have Hiarcs7.32

Best regards,
Terry Ripple

------------------

Need more data, but I have had Hiarcs7 for months now, it too kicked butt and I
played the games by hand.

As you seen from this match it did not kill Junior 5, but did kill Fritz 5. Its
something to look into, but I will not condemn Hiarcs7.32 fine results without
more data.

In my 10'/60 tournament Hiarcs 7.32 did not win, and fell in the middle of the
pact.

My results don't confirm or deny the theory.

There is also data to suggest that the autoplayer has a flaw in it, as noted by
Uri.

I'm pondering...:)

Is one true or none, I don't know.
