Hamsters have the same performance as pseudo based on the ccrl list
From the ccrl list:

Hamsters 0.4 2691 +193 −159 79.2% −194.4 25.0% 12
49.9%
28 Pseudo 0.7c 2691 +20 −20 49.2% +4.1 38.9% 772

Maybe Alessandro Scotti was wrong when he claimed that hamster is probably weaker than kiwi at long time control

I also remember him claiming that Hamster is weaker than Pseudo.
Hamster's results so far fails do not show it.

Uri
Yeah great improvement from Hamsters,Alessandro was just being modest.
He did really tell me that Hamsters is little better than Kiwi.Don't know where you got that info,maybe it was the older version of Hamsters that was weaekr than Kiwi.
From the link:

"I would say 0.4 is slightly stronger than Kiwi at blitz, but probably weaker at long time controls"
