hi vincent,

here you could be right! i´ve made some tests again shredder 4, Fritz 6 and
rebel century for the new chessbits and analyzed the games. the following thing
was coming out:

in 60 games nimzo got a result of +9/-7/0
that means nimzo was much stronger than the opponents in the opening. it scored
10:1 so overall a plus of 9 points! in the middlegame it was much weaker than
the others, making an overall minus of 7, in the endgame it was of equal
strength.

i was very surprised about the influence of the fantastic kure-book.
