The REBEL database has been expanded with 300,000 games. The Rebel database has now 800,000 high qualified chess games.

The REBEL database is the life-work of Wybe Koopmans who spends over 1000 hours a year to build his ultimate database.

Rebel 11.0's new 800,000 (800,026 to be exatly) chess game database is estimated close to 6000 man hours work. Indeed a life-work.

The REBEL database (besides the large number of chess games) offers you excellent tools to view, search, maintain, statistics, import, export your databases.

Using the REBEL database you don't need an external separate database program if you are an average database user, the REBEL database offers you over 50 functions enough to keep you busy for years.

  It is remarkable to see Robert Fischer on the second place very close to Garry Kasparov. And what to think about good old Emanuel Lasker on the 4th place? Furthermore the current world championship match (October/November 2000) Kasparov-Kramnik seems to be justified according to the REBEL database as they seems to be the 2 strongest chess players in the world at this moment.
  
  Even more remarkable is Rebel's 14th place! with a 62% score and an elo of 2623.
