Never thought of me being a king's indian fan ;-) When Nimzo crushed Shredder in Paderborn 98 with the Belgrade Gambit was I supposed to be a Belgrade Gambit fan? The truth is that the King's Indian, like the Sicilian, is an opening which leads to unbalanced positions where the 'better' program, the program which handles the position better, will succeed. If you play unbalanced positions better be prepared for them! If you are not prepared playing specific positions arising after specific openings - simply do not play them. As Computer chess programs cannot play chess it is always a challenge for me to select openings where they will not ruin too much by playing the arising positions. This has nothing to do with setting traps. The game Tiger vs. Quest was a classical example of how to handle a king's attack. To me it was the best game in the Dutch Open so far. By the way Quest is *not* using Nimzo's opening book. I created a new one for Fritz 6. This is the book they use in Leiden. Greetings Alex
