Hello Mogens,
I believe you are right. When using auto232 games I think the book settings are
automatically set to "Optimal". The problem is this was one of the "manual"
games I played and did not make sure the book settings were already set to
"Optimal" before the game started. Which means I'll have to go back and replay
this game. It does not change the fact that the book has a blunder in it
though. The "normal" setting should give more variety but not blunders. Thanks
for reminding me.
Jim
