I have considered this, and I think that this may be caused by wrong 
training model. 
In my master thesis, I mentioned that the relationship between
 top 1 accuracy of move prediction and the strength of Monte-Carlo
 is not simple (I increased the number of matches to 600, and similar 
tendency appeared). Therefore, it might be wrong to use only one human
 move (top 1 move) as a positive example (such training will highten 
top 1 accuracy). 
We may need to use another training model...
