Ok, I'll switch to Gambit Tiger.  Unfortunately I'll only be able to play a
small amount of games due to the time control, so the interest will lie in the
games themselves and not so much the result.

Should I use gambit book or the main (supplied) book?

Should I keep all default setting or use, e.g., aggressive?
