Yes, I know everyone knows that. The Stats do speak for themselves and the conclusion is obvious. The games are all clssified by ECO Opening classifications. It indicates very clearly which Lines are better for White; for Black, and which draw. We also know White Perf. = 55% Black Perf. = 45% Why? The Stats clearly show why and where Chess Theory can be advanced by deeper analysis. I find this very interesting. Others may also. It is a place to start. > >What does it have to do with Burcham's post? maybe something, maybe nothing, we all have our own perceptions. ;) cy "Computer Engine Grande Tournaments" Last Posting 2005 showed a Total of 68319 games had been played.
