But this is such a short tourney where every program changes books and prepares cooked lines for a single opponent. There is no principled and purely "chessic" book in such tourneys. This line, a transposed Ruy Lopez, was just a way to take Rebel out of book, because Rebel's opening repertoire is probably one of the best in computer chess. But, let me say it again, you are right in what you are saying. Djordje
