In sight of this wonderful result, The FIDE president announced Rybka was worthy to be on the bench of reserves for the new Ultimate Computer Challenge next year when Fritz takes on Junior to show the world just who are the BEST.... Fritzes and Juniors out there. :wink:

Congrats again!

Albert
That's Great News! Congratulations twice over!

Congrats to Vas. As for Chessbase quickly reporting Rybka's victory, are they possibly interested in pursing a match between Junior and Rybka?
