 Yes, I'm quite sure that you will appreciate Gambit Tiger, Fernando!
 Nota bene: The name of the engine doesn't mean that he plays gambitlines
 directly from the book. In fact he is, at the moment, using the normal
 Tiger book. Just plays the opening and then comes looking for you!
 *Very* actively and aggressively. This has been seen before, having another
 "T"-program clearly in mind - but one novelty is that Gambit Tiger
 just seems to beat the other top programs! Indicating the quality of this
 attacker! Some people have called the games "lucky shots", some "the creation
 of a genius". It might very well be a lucky shot by a very talented
 programmer... Some experimental engine, I would say...
