Hi everyone !

I read many times that it is better for every chess engine to use it is own book
which was prepared for it by experienced players, even IG. OK, I looked through
the books which were prepared for Ftitz, Junior or Hiarcs. They are on the CDs
and everybody can copy them on your hard drive. But I can't see any point to do
it. There is nothing special about these books. There are thousands and
thousands games in there from the girl's and boy's tournaments aged under 10-12.
Who could chose these games for Fritz or Junior, what is the value of these
games in the Fritz's library ? What can it learn from these games ? As for me, I
deleted all games of this sort from my DB. So, my personal opinion is that the
books of most top engines are just a collection of any games which were squeezed
into a tree. Let's better make our own books.
Thanks
Anatoli
