I was going to download some of Dann Corbit's big collection of games to look at
some games with oddball openings and I have a question about what would be in
each of these files.
There is a file called ECO.pgn that seems to show what code an opening is
assigned (e.g. A00).
Looking at this, I found:
[ECO "A00"]
[Opening "Benko's opening"]
[Variation "Tuebingen variation"]
1. g3 *
so it seemed that all games beginning 1. g3 should be in A00.
But then I saw this later on:
[ECO "A07"]
[Opening "Reti"]
[Variation "King's Indian attack "]
1. g3 d5 2. Bg2 Nf6 3. Nf3 *
Can anyone explain how these opening codes work? Why isn't the second opening
line included in A00? Or is it?
