As the idea (at least, as I understood it) is for when the player strength is unbalanced (i.e. handicap games, or playing an opponent who is stronger in the opening but weaker in the endgame (or vice versa)) that you'd get 54% from self-play in even games is intriguing. I look forward to reading your draft paper.
