awww.. i thought it was an Ebook.

It is fairly easy to beat a program like fritz though, because once you've found a weakness, you can exploit it over and over. Fritz never learns from it's mistakes.

I have no idea what that book is about, but it might very well be the "anti-computer chess" method (Pablo chess, lol). This is where you lock the pawn structure and just shuffle pieces back and forth until the stupid engine loses on time. Engines can be programmed to avoid this strategy, but many engines don't have this. Very boring to watch, though.

Super ! Now to keep on beating Fritz all you have to do is play that exact same game over and over and you can brag about how easy it is to "fool" Fritz.
Oh, wait....you got a draw. Hardly "easy" to beat Fritz, since you still haven't done it yet.

I have no clue what this person is talking about. Read through some of it but it's ...yawn.

On a side note, you can teach fritz or other chessbase programs to avoid certain variations. If you have someone who comes over and plays your fritz and keeps winning, you can teach fritz to learn from it's loses and avoid those variations next time.

Without bothering to check the link, fooling a computer to get a high rating is actually fooling yourself. If you play anti-computer chess and get a ranking of 3000 then when you go to the PlayChess and start getting hammered by 1500 humans, who is fooling who?

"Fairly easy to beat Fritz"????

If that were true, then Kramnik must be a very sucky chess player. Didn't he lose 4-2 against Fritz?
