Yes that right Fritz(+Nimzo)=Kure  and Tiger(+Rebel)=Noomen

I don't have neither of them so I cannot check if this is in the released
Fritz-book or they use a special tournament book.

Only comm. book I have is Shredder (Book=Necchi).
I checked the moves with this engine and Shredder would play just like
Postmodern, Bxc3 + Bxe4, so I naturly checked the Necchi book to see if this was
an attack meant for the old champ. But no I don't think the book on tournament
level would allow Maroczy bind at all.

Also Dann's CAP data favour 14...Bxc3.
