I don't see any reason why they would lie >about that. I'm not saying that their lying. I think their stretching the truth. Maybe, In some variations the book is only 10 moves deep. In other variations it's deeper. This game looks like a clear case of preparing for a specific opponent. They followed a game Adams played recently and Hydra plays a novelty! It seems obvious to me that it was prepared. Regards Tony
