I have not it but I believe that even with no book you should not be a pawn down
after 10 moves and this is what happened against shredder3.

I do not think that the gambit 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e5 is good for black.

I saw tiger final results in enrique's tournament and I think that it did a
better result in enrique's tournament.
