Update3.pgn

Follows the main book ctg which was developed from about 2014 until today.
It has more than 1 800 000 positions but 0 games, so it does not depend upon game statistics.
I recommend to open the properties window and activate "Unplayed transpositions" to see the negative moves too.
The basis for the book are not only the training games above but also mainly ICCF games.
