Lines involving Qf3 seem to be creating problems for Black.

Thanks for running this. What was the White vs. Black score (I know I could derive it myself, but maybe you have it handy)? Any particular reason for choosing the ..Qd6 Scandinavian (maybe just a personal preference? Perhaps the somewhat open character makes luck less of a factor in the result? In general, choosing openings with a larger than average White advantage tends to reduce draws and therefore tends to keep the luck factor down as the sample size of decisive games increases.
