Go up one level in this thread

In my opinion it is better to work on opening stratgies, then work on opening
books. As quoted below, some times other programs or people will make very bad
opening moves just to throw you out of book. If on the other hand, you program
can assume control of the center squares in the first 10 or so moves then you
will be ahead of the game reguardless of what the opponent plays.
Opening books can greately increase your programs strenght and can save you a
lot of valuable time which can be used in later deeper searches.
Good luck
Bill
