The result of 10-19 would not be at all surprising for evenly matched engines. I think you will find that your intuition is not nearly as good as scientific data. Sometimes, we watch a game where a program plays brilliantly. By that game, we get a certain impression. But there will be other games where the program is not so brilliant. I have seen claims where people will analyze a single move and make statements about the strength of a program (in fact, I have made them myself!) and yet we should recognize that such opinions are purely subjective and the presense of more data should be able to sway our simplistic impressions.
