But Peter and I discussed this and we chose to use my wide-open ICC book for these games to avoid giving away anything about his tournament preparation. I knew that we would bust one or more openings. The one thing I forgot is that I cleverly copied my binary books from my xeon to the opteron. Doesn't work. 90% of my book was unusable leading to some bizarre opening choices. I did that late at night and just forgot that even though the opteron and xeon are both little-endian, the opteron has a longer struct padding (to 8 bytes rather than 4 bytes) which kills my binary book copy. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. I should have remembered. :(
