Millennium King Performance opening book question

Post by DaMaBu »

When the KP is in its book, using the Master book, the upper right corner of the display will show 57/58. When it's in the Aegon94 book, it shows 62/63. Once the computer is out of book, these numbers show the full width and selective search depths. Given that meaning, does that suggest that the Master and Aegon books actually have a depth of 58 and 63, respectively? That is, are there actually opening sequences of that length included in these books? Or do these numbers mean something else in the opening? I don't think this is explained in the user's guide. Thanks.
