I want to see BOTH engines calculate EARLY from the beginning. If i would change S8 booking, the people would complain (they complain ANYWAY :-)) but it is IMO ok to let CSTal play with a small book. Due to this small book it often throws S8 out of the big s8 book. IMO this is ok. and as you can see it normally plays good. in game 3 the opening was lousy indeed. but thats the risk if you play with a small book.
