Ok, so I am assuming that both programs were using their opening book here?
When did each program leave book?

I looked the opening up in ECO, it is all known theory until 19.a4 (19.Bg5 was
Ljubojevic - Karpov, Amsterdam 1991).  Unfortunately, 19.a4 looks like a poor
move, since after the exchange on c4 white's bishop on c2 is a very sad piece
biting on 3 of its own pawns while black's knight's have ample central outposts.

Here is the fen:
r2qrbk1/5p1p/n2p1np1/pb2p3/2N1P3/1P3N1P/P1B2PP1/R1BQR1K1 w - -

A quick run of this position using LambChop had it jumping between the moves
Be3, Rb1 and Na3, all showing a tiny plus for white.

Perhaps you could more precisely explain what you mean here?
Will you play the colours reversed game from the first position that one of the
programs was out of book?  I think that would be most sensible, and of course
turn off books for both programs as well.

Thanks for running an interesting match.
