I started playing chess from 10 years old.  Lately I spend leisure 
time playing chess at www.freechess.org and Yahoo!Chess.
Some chessers are just too good, I guess they're assisted by some 
chess program (Chess Master) running in another computer.  

So I tried this Linux-based GNU Chess 4.1.0 running in my laptop
following just exactly all its moves.  It's good attacking but too 
lousy in the end game (three pones on each sides that remained
 in one side).  This GNU Chess draws the game so I lost for the 
first time.  

I wonder if the Greekman opponent at a university in Greece 
was also being assisted by a better program.
