I just tried the new Thinker against Yace, with a shortbook for both activated (Fritz-GUI). Thinker and Yace obviously used their own book (O.K., they can be deleted or emptied), however: a.) Why does Yace play these moves? and b.) Both engines play, with a small interruption, from start to the mate at the end only out of a book ? I have never seen anything like that. The game took about 20 seconds to the mate.
