Hi,

don't take it so hard. Stefan had some good reasons for not doing it. Actually I
am very busy and such a match should take some time preparation. My book is
actually not made for such a match. In order to be succesfull it should be
modified specifically.
Also those strong players are able to by-pass the openings book quite well, so
even with my book it is not sure we would have won.

I only said that the position of the lost game is known to me and was avoided in
my book 8 years ago.

It is the engine that wins or looses the game, not the book.

The book can help to win or loose the game. That's it:-))

In future there will be more opportunities.
Thanks anyway for your consideration.
