Having started and experiment between CM6K and Rebel 10 which I have included all of the CM6K opening to my knowledge into the rebel 10 opening book, I wonder how Rebel or any other chess engine would perform using opening moves that are not popular. I know that CM6K uses some weird and wonderful ones, which is why I am playing 12 games with it ans Rebel 10. Since I have heard that Rebel 10 works well with its original opening book, I am seeing how well it works without it. I would think that a truely strong chess engine would be able to play more unusual openings to a capable level. I am wondering if anyone else has tried this. And I am more particular with the less used openings, or even more popular ones which are used but a program does not have in its opening book. Since part of the chessmaster opening books for different personalities include these kinds of openings which many other programs do not. I find it most enjoyable to watch and see how thing develope. As in my first game I posted, in which Rebel 10 used a move which it does not have in its opening book, which someone picked up on :) And thus went on to lose the game. This by far does not show me anything, but I hope in coming games it will. And as also pointed out by a fellow memberr when I played this game, gives me the impression that Rebel 10 without its own original opening books leave its engine lacking. As he stated this was not fair on Rebel 10 when I explained this is what I was doing. So it has made me wonder more. I would like to hear from anyone knowing mroe on this matter. regards Micheal
