Hi Dave
Below an output after (only) 191 games played be
CM10k-default (40'/40). When considering the high
wins vs the amateurs the overall score is so far
not very convincing in so far as no won match vs
the other professional engines. The number of
games vs Junior8 will be increased and now the
matches vs List_512 and Aristarch_450 are running.
