You should use -q1, where matches are played in pairs, and in each

That way, if the two players make the same choices, you eliminate luck
completely :). If not, you reduce its effect.
But now you have 1/2 the trials, with 3 outcomes per trial, -,0,+ (X
winds both, they split, O wins both), so the stats will be different.
But I would repeat with a -q1. 50.69% is huge. I don't expect it to go away.
50.69% was with 2ply evaluations, it will take some time to reproduce
the experiment :-).
In the output with --q1 :
# X - 504 O - 496 (50.40+%) (262 121 117)
The 50.4% gross result is unbiased, right ? But estimating the variance is
not clear to me. Compared to the plain random dice there must be a
additional term close to (121+117)/500, something like that.
