It's great to see so many testers of Yace. Can i download some of the games you
mention somewhere? Perhaps get a database of Yace games and see if it makes any
common errors or hates certain openings..

I'm coming to feel that the Bolesalavsky variation in the sicilian defence (1 e4
c5 2 Nf3 d6 3 d4 cd 4 Nxd4 Nf6 5 Nc3 a6 6 Be2 e5 is a bad choice for Yace.) It
just doesn't understand that d5 is a key point to control..The book i'm using is
 i think from Mogens site.
