In short, let's suppose that the tree has depth 10, which is not the
case of Go for most of the time, and every simulation arrives the end
leaf( at depth 10), where the score given is determinist. In this case
UCT works pretty well I believe. The question is, in this case will it
be better than, for exemple, min-max tree search?
