It certainly is The King. But the real problem with CM8000 is that the King needs a good tournement book well suited for his playing style. If Johan De Koning is playing a tournement with the King he always uses the famous 'Cock de Gorter' book. I think i have that book for the king 2.5. It was downloadable at TASC a long time ago. I don't know if it is allowed to convert this book in CM-format without the permission from Cock. And off course you need book learning now. And at last .... I need The european patch !!!
