If C is true, doesn't that make A true as well. If, in general, a given chess program has a better chance of winning the more moves it can evaluate under certain time constraints, then wouldn't it be true out of two chess programs run on the same computer that the one that can evaluate more moves has a better chance at winning, just as the stimulus says?

Hi,
Since C is true, then A is indeed quite likely to be true, but not necessarily. We know that generally, more examined means better chances of winning. Sure there can be exceptions, but the odds are in favor of the program that examines more moves. This shows that A is very likely to be true, however, it does not have to be true. Perhaps if the two programs are played on the same computer. (Which is true of A but not of the passage) then this is one of those possible exceptions.
