Well, I haven't looked at the rest of the game, because Nc6 is really
a sensible move for a chess programs book ;)

No idea who suggested this book to you? But of course its own
native book would not contain such a weak line, which programs
hardly understand. If you need a hint to set up a non CB book
just ask here.

I wonder what learning has to do with a single game? If you want to say
you tried to 'teach' Fruit bad things(for chess programs) like Aljechin or
other things better let it as it is.
(I guess this means that your *ctg book also already was polluted
with your teaching attempts?)
