Ahem.
It is 11 p.m. and I am very tired ! Was a difficult job today on work.
So I would like to strike today - and let you alone with the complete
games.

BTW: I found out WHY CSTAL came in one game out of the book with -4
score !
The book line was the reason. The game was outplayed by two weak
players.
white 1600 ELO and black 1750 ELO. Later !! in the game black WON.
CSTal had black and thought: oh - a nice winning line !
I should follow it.

But - of course - the opponent made a different move on the way,
suddenly
cstal stood there, out of book, in a totally lost position.
This is the disadvantage if you trust big amount of data.
We will fix this in the next tal version. I think we let CSTal compute
in the background and preprocess any book-move. If one book.move gets
material
loss, we don't play it.
I would do it this way. I hope I can convince chris. I don't want to
know HOW MANY of those books lines are in our 570 MB book !
Also I would like to know why CSTal won the game against CM5000.
But they played 3 h all for the whole game. Maybe a blitz-win because
cm5000 overstepped time ?
I will go sleeping now. Sorry.

ACHTUNG !  Somebody will translate it in the end. No doubt. Or me,
tomorrow...
