Oh well, live and learn. > >ed seid Then something is wrong. You wrote at RebelBoard "I still need advice on how to tweak the Chess Tiger settings to maximize playing strength. For example, what is the difference between a gui book and an engine book? I have it set on engine book now (for no particular reason) and note that there is only 1 book available. Is there another book that I can download that would make the engine stronger/more accurate in the opening? Can I build a book and if so, how? Thanks in advance for your suggestions." ChessTiger 14.0 using ct.tbk engine book will not play the kings gambit. The only engine book that plays 2. f4 the kings Gambit is the gambit.tbk available to registered users of RebelTiger II. If you have use gui books ticked and the gui book has the kings gambit then it would play it. Myself I use gui books to ONLY supplement poor lines or lines that Tiger don't do well in. Again if gui books is ticked all the engine book then does is pick up where the gui book leaves off. But your message at the Rebel board indicates you only were using ct.tbk and that book will not play the kings gambit as white. Sarah.
