Sorry in chess there is not exception or luck, specially in a match of 20 games,
if I play an opponent that is rated close to me around 1950 and he beats me by
the same margin that Jonny beat Aristarch 4.50 then I simply don't have any
excuses. Remember programs are not like humans they don't have good day or bad
day, neither personal problems like we do. I am sorry to say that if you had a
bad match with Jonny you simply had it configured wrong.
