Go up one level in this thread


    My logical conclusion would be that since CM's book runs
    out so early, this may be to it's advantage as far as
    comp/comp chess is concerned. I've always thought that book
    knowledge is overrated as a factor in determining playing
    strength in human/human games. The stronger player will
    out-see the weaker one in the mid game, so that the weaker
    player's better 'book' was all for nothing. This applies to
    computers too. CM6 is currently the best. Of course, all else
    being equal, book knowledge comes in handy.
