I sent you an response yesterday. Did you see it? I am pasting it below:

Since I know GNUBG doesn't cheat or manipulate the dice in someones
favor under normal circumstances there has to be (from my perspective)
some other explanation and the ones that comes to mind is that one of
the players is a stronger opponent than the other. A weaker opp is more
likely to get gammoned more.

Just out of curiosity, when you set up th GNUBG player what skill level
did you have it play at (expert, beginner, world class etc)?

One thing that crossed my mind is that if you set the bot (GNUBG player)
to a skill level higher than Expert it will play the opening roll (if it
wins the opening roll of a game) at the higher skill level. When you hit
"End Game" it then plays BOTH players using Expert Level (this is done
for speed).

You could always archive up your SGF file and send a copy to
[email protected] . When I have a chance I can look at the match data.
