I think that if you play 1000 games against the same opponent then you have a
good chance of reproducing the same variation.

I did not say that it is simple to do it but that it is only a question of
money.

You need a lot of computers to reproduce 1000 games against every possible
opponent(If you train against 50 opponents then you need 50 computers(a computer
for every opponent)
