Uri, I thought you knew it.
10 games (!) [->6-4] is ALMOST NOTHING.
Try it out yourself. Play a series of 40-80 games with 2 programs of your
choice, even engine-engine or a winboard tourney.
Afterwards take a look at the result after 10 games, after 20 games and after 50
games. The first 10 games will not reflect the final result.
And if you have played >100 games (sometimes even less is enough) you will find
all possible results, from 8-2 to 2-8, within a series of 10 games out of the
>100 games.
