Disappointed with Rybka 2.2 by
RocketMan
I have recently purchased the MP version of Rybka 2.2. Although I am
only a 1500-1600 player, I managed to get a draw against the program. I
have always been beaten soundly by the Chessbase engines (Fritz,
Shredder, Junior etc.) on their 'top' level. Rybka didn't seem to
recognize a 3-repetition position, so I managed a draw.
Do you think that is a bug??
My system specs are AMD 64 X2...

Hi guys!
Don't pull down your pants yet for a FIDE drug test, but I just
incorporated in Wyoming. My Wyoming Corporation (the Charleston Chess
Association, Inc.) wants to compete against Bill Goichberg. I therefore
as a corporate officer apply in the name of the corporation for an
affiliate ID with the United States Chess Federation.

Genius5 for DOS by
M Winther
Genius5 (and Genius3) for DOS are the best programs for old
computers. I have a 486 25MHz laptop, and Genius5 for DOS
plays extremely well on this slow computer. This program
is clearly to recommend if you want to make use of an old
computer. I also have a strong computer running WinXP, but
I seem unable to abandon DOS. Another example is TascBase
for DOS, which I mentioned in another message,...

Achieving Your Chess Goals by
John Evans
I just wrote an article on goal setting specifically geared towards chess.
If you have so time give it a read and let me know what you think.
I'm also starting a training regiment that I am going to record on my site.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Computers vs. Humans by
Ruud
Computers:
They can't beat you, but you cán loose to them.
Tragic, but Kramnik overlooked a mate in 1.
Sadly for him, computers usually don't.

How come the same chess engines do not draw ??? by
SAT W-7
When two of the same Chess engines play each other , Fritz 9 vs Fritz
9 for example ,
how come they do not draw every game ..
If they are all programmed the same way it seems like every game would
be a draw ..
Or is it that there are so many moves one mite pick a different move to
try and win than draw?
