Yes, that must be positional learning, even though it doesn't sound that promising. Maybe I'm just suspecious without reason, but if you describe position learning with one sentence then... Is that all there is about learning (experience) in the manual? >Though I need to look at those games and will check them >in MCP8 as it is move 25 and most programs are already out >of book by then and if the program is using its tournament >book then it will not vary. So the issue ends up how good is >its position learner. If that particular opening variation suck, pardon my french, then positional learning won't do any good. When you're down 2 pawns in evaluation after exiting the book, then all choices are poor, more or less. Positional learning is great in conjunction with book learning, or in positions that are close to equal in evaluation, where it can try different moves and learn what is best. An updated or modified book sounds like the only solution to me. Best wishes... Mogens
