Play online chess
Subject: Bite the Apple

Message:
Hello my lovelys
Has anyone played the kind of stock chess apple programe, it came free with my G5. I've not
beaten it yet on the easiest level, although I draw a lot (which it dosn't seem to have an option to
offer a draw nice one apple). So my question is what level is it playing at, rather then is it a good
program because it clearly isn't, just nice when I'm phoning around playing chess at work hurrah.
Peace and love
Enda

Play online chess
Just an opinion

Message:
Even professional chess softwares in the lower levels do not think like human. Although not in detail, human can think strategically up to tens of depth while such program in your mac I'll bet won't be more than 8. Because of that I think it is difficult to rate the program in term of ELO rating. It is easier with professional programs because the programs had undergone competitions with rated human chess players.

Try to attack the king and find sacrifices (usually bishop capturing pawn protecting the king). This is the easiest way to win against low level chess programs.

But I'm surprised that you draw the program a lot because in my experience it is always a win or loose. I guess it is because such program cannot play chess but does not make blunders :)
