Hi Marek
I am indeed wondering how things will go on
with Hiarcs 10. After the many years of experience
it's hard to believe the advertisment of ChessBase
"The new Hiarcs 10 book is included which has been significantly
enhanced with the latest GM theory and a wealth of novelties to
provide a huge repertoire of fi nely tuned variations. This is
the work of computer chess expert Eric Hallsworth and Hiarcs
author Mark Uniacke who have combined to provide an exceptional
new opening book."
My experience is the opposite: the Hiarcs books have rather
been a handicap for the program, with the exception when
fighting against human players.
And eventually: I am more interested in the naked engine
playing strength and not in the the goodness of an opening
book with which it's possible to hide a lot of weaknesses.
Best regards
Kurt
