A while ago, I played a weak version of my program GKJunior on ICC, called
WeakGK. It moved instantly, after ply 3 search. I noticed a lot of opponents
trying to do the same, making stupid mistakes and giving WeakGK a much higher
ranking than I would have thought. However, these were about 1600 rated players,
I can't tell for GM's playing at 2600 rating.
