Gladly, and I quote:

Hiarcs: Black: 1.e4...c5  2.Nf3...e6  3.d4...cxd4  4.Nxd4...Nf6  5.Nxc6...bxc6
6.e5...Nd5 (he claims his Hiarcs would not play Nd5).  7.Ne4...f5  8.Nd6+...and
here while the screen info said Bxd6 no, with no highlighted in red, Hiarcs
played Bxd6. However, that wasn't the issue - it was that Nd5. In any event,
after the 7 moves, I believe Hiarcs has put itself in a fairly bad position by
not playing the proper book line of Qc7 instead of Nd5. I also have another
opening example with Hiarcs as White playing an awful first 8 moves where Black
gets connected passed pawns in the center. This is opening book I'm referring
too.


In the quoted line above, 5.Nxc6 is clearly impossible.

Yes, I am. The trouble is that it changes every time you write it.

See above.

Let's get the *proper* move order settled, *then* I'll check the opening book's
contents.

Can we be sure of this? After all, it seems to be a different move order each
time you post. Who's to say *what* you've unwittingly done with the opening
book.
