Dear Tom,

Thanks...

Interesting and another confirmation
For example, I've just compared your results with mine and noticed that your Houdini 2.0z performed even better than SCCT
But however,my feelings say that your test by Houdini 2.0z performance will drop down after more games...

Btw, probably Salvador will be more happy,if he will see your results too




Best,

If you can tell me how to put the picture in , I could put the final chart up like you did.

Thanks

First of all, you need a screen capture program,e.g here is free one:

Note also that you need to create a crosstable by using Chessbase GUI

One thing more,
If you are planning to continue testing Houdini 2.0z (with more games)

Then,i suggest you to use different and varied strong openings

For example,25 opening positions is good idea only for short testings

Any hot suggestions ?

I have the klo_ series ......

Note:i dont recommend to be used thousands of opening positions,due to such database contains a lot of holes
