Monthes of opening preperation are not going to help Rebel when it finds itself
after 2 moves out of book.

This is exactly what happened to my rebel when I played against a GM in
correspondence games.

The game began 1.g3 d5 2.f4 and Rebel is out of book and the same for the tiger.
old Fritz5 book have move in book in this position.

I do not think that opening preperation helped Rebel in the past against humans.
I think that jeroen's book is too small and if he does not do opening prepration
then Rebel will be at disadvantage relative to other programs with bigger book
and may be a victim of opening preperation.
