Ah. I'm sorry if I failed to draw attention to that in my original description. I believe that some of my experiments were very similar to this one. I don't really recall the details although I did pick the values used here of 5k, 100k, and 10 moves based on my recollection. I think that originally I may have measured the difference between the two over moves 5-10 or 5-15. And of course the Monte Carlo program was my own, which had some minor differences. More significantly, I would probably have used gnugo as the reference program for those experiments.
