Hi Uri,
I could do some tests. Do you think that playing very fast time controls like _
1 min for both sides and using Hiarcs to play against itself and one side using
the Lunsen Book and the other side using no book or it's original book or even
the Tournament book could show some evidence if the Lunsen Book is better? And
of course i would play atleast 100 or more games! Or would i need to play a
little slower time control?

Regards,
