             Dear Chess Friends,
             I am pleased to announce that,             SCCT (based on Perfect 2018 book) is one of with best performance!             If we are going to compare the available chess engine competitions             I mean about who prefer small short books + various openings etc.             SCCT book was leading for several months, finally lost to E8400 book             Btw in 2014, I opened threads (about openings) in a few forums: 1 / 2  
              The Current Book Leader: E8400 - My Congratulations to  mig2004!

           Some Notes:                 Almost all books based on games mainly by Houdini, Komodo, Stockfish               As expected, many of the above books have a lot of critical/weak openings               Simply because mostly of the lines are not optimized/tuned after 8 moves               E.g SCCT is based mainly on my blitz engine competitions (not on book tours)               And the openings of SCCT book are without any optimizations after 8 moves...               Where E8400 book is based on engine games, but played at slow time control               SSDF, WCCC not listed, both have many optimized lines after 8 moves               No Book (played without any book) is listed, due to some used to play...               But however, (as usual) SCCT is one of the books, which has less holes...               In short, the games of my database is not faultless, but one of strongest!               And I am happy that my efforts (since many years) are not in vain...               Indeed that means a lot for me! also SCCT (Perfect book series) is               One of best (in various openings), e.g if comparing older book  tours:               XXII XX  XIX  XVII  XIV  XIII  XII Playchess2008  / 2009  plus many other tours...
               One thing more,               Since 2009, I stopped working over Perfect book's deep opening lines               E.g  my last deep book was Perfect 16, which was almost unbeatable...!               The main reason about why I stopped working over deep opening lines.?                Simply I should be a neutral TD...plus I have no much free time for all...                 Btw, many people often asked me about I play on online chess servers..?                No, my last game (as SedatChess user) was played on Playchess 2009                However, nowadays we have many Top Book Makers... who are really                Great talents in creating super strong deep opening books!!                                      Official Ranking   Conditions    More Details
