1. ParSOS           - Junior
2. Falcon           - Shredder
3. Jonny            - Fritz
4. Crafty           - Woodpusher 1997
5. The Crazy Bishop - Deep Sjeng
6. FIBChess         - Diep
7. IsiChess         - Movei

Would be feasible pairings according to FIDE-rules for swiss pairing system
(Manila '92). I wonder what kind of tournament software is used in Ramat-Gan?!
Round 9 and especially round 7 were a little bit "ugly" too.
