Ok, what the heck. Not enough data to draw any conclusions, but I broke out the white and black win percentages when both players were within specific 200 point ELO windows. I ignored all other games.
range wh bl wperc bperc --------- --- --- ----- ----- 1000-1199 7 9 0.44 0.56 1200-1399 11 5 0.69 0.31 1400-1599 4 7 0.36 0.64 1600-1700 26 18 0.59 0.41 1800-1999 52 43 0.55 0.45 2000-2199 14 9 0.61 0.39 2200-2399 10 17 0.37 0.63 2400-2599 42 51 0.45 0.55 2600-2799 15 22 0.41 0.59 Seems to indicate that black has an advantage at higher levels. White won about 52% of ALL the games played. - Don Don Dailey wrote: > FatMan is a CPU hog, I think it would be good to get a lot of data > first, and then perhaps see what happens with FatMan 14.
