I am fully aware that in a given set of games even the strongest chess
programs could lose a game or 2 against their weaker and older opponents,
but last night I played mentioned 2 game match at 120/40, no books used, in
order to see just how much the understanding of the basics of the chess game
has improved with todays top programs.
Shredder 7 mated Fritz 1.2 in move 32 as white. Fritz chose Scandinavian and
got his queen lost by the move 20 or so. Then came a surprise. Fritz 1.2
white game went to some sort of Trompovsky attack, and pretty soon Shredder
found himself worse, and in a difficult and boring position played trully
idiot moves (Ka8 and such), loosing easily within 45 moves.
This is really dissapointing!!
Any comments?
