Hi Chris,
  Playing games between engines are alot of fun as i also do the same kinds of
matches but you need to take the games with a grain of salt when playing a small
number of games. I found that you could run the very same match several
different times and they are different in the outcome of the final scores!
  Many games of like 100 to 200 are needed to show any kind of accuracy to which
"might" be the better engine! (PS.This is what was stated on this forum)
