Just like a human. The problem is that the gaffes will be few and far between, because the game of chess is so big, even a PGN book with 10 million games barely covers the first 10 moves solidly... with the 'enormous' book I still find crafty out of the book inside 10 moves in most games. So you have to hope for early blunders, or else play against a very strong opponent for the rest of the game... tis better, probably, to tone down the scoring with the adjustable parameters and 'dumb it down'...
