Of course but Vincent said in http://www.talkchess.com/forums/1/message.html?324307 Though i commercially can understand the idea, from sportive viewpoint i find it very disgusting. My point is that if Jeroen can do disgusting things for commercial reasons the first thing that I expect him to do it is not to do draws between the programs. > >If we'd have let Deep Sjeng and Rebel lose against Tiger, Tiger would >have won.

I do not think that bob expressed an opinion about the result between Tiger and Deep sjeng when they use the same book: Vincent said in his post: "especially if you hear leaked out scores of dual sjeng when playing tiger (when it is equipped with the same book like sjeng)." > >So basically, nothing whatsoever that Robert said had any basis in reality and >hence I _of course_ strongly disagree with him. > >-- >GCP Basically Robert never claimed something that you disagree with it.
