I think that it may be better if you use the nunn1 match and not the power book
if you want to test the engines.

The problem is that powerbook may lead to a draw based on book.

I did not watch the games but when I see that even BamBam got draws against
Fritz's and Shredder than the only way that I can imagine it is if BamBam got
drawns position from book.
