Hiarcs won 14.5:5.5 and it suggests difference of 180 elo but the number of games are not enough to know the exact difference and 20 games are not enough information to say that H7.32 has an edge of about 200 ELO points in engine-engine games. She also did not use the opening book of the programs but used an opening book of old Fritz5 for both programs. Uri
