One of the intentions to my "fair" computerchess approach is that the programmers will be encouraged to improve their programs during the opening phase. Today programs only very rarely have the chance to show their abilities here, because of being overruled by the holy cow of opening library usage. Congratulation to your improved evaluation, its the right direction! Regards, Reinhard. >NN - The Baron 1.3.1 beta 4 >1.Nf3 d5 2.g3 Bf5 3.Bg2 e6 4.O-O Nf6 5.d3 Bc5 6.Nbd2 O-O 7. Re1?
