"Opening preperation is certainly a critical point. We use a very short opening
book. Maximum 10 moves, sound main variations. Then we leave Hydra from the
lash. I think it is difficult to find within the first 10 moves in
main-variations killing-novelties. It is possible to find something afterwards.
But Hydra is difficult to predict and it has already refuted some lines. Testing
the novelty with Fritz is no real guaranntee. If the GM deviates quite early
from theory, he has less time per move and has to do much more calculations."
