Do you mean with no book.That was the point of my post! > > regards:Alan of course. I do not think that the book is very important. The value of book is probably not more than 100 elo(unless the program with book use the same line again and again) when programs got better by more than 100 elo. I did not try no book because I may get only 2 games with no book at specific time control but I guess that no book may give similiar results to the nunn match or similiar matches from known positions with no book when the programs get both sides.
