The Veriance between your 2 cylinders as stated above, "no more than 10 psi variance between the cylinders" is a lot more important than what your compression is (as the PSI between the quality of compression gauges used will very dramatically)

The left side is at 190 first check and the right side on first check was 200.
The left side on second check was 180 and the right side was 195, I am sure some fuel started effecting this check once it got in the cylinders.
So how does this sound?

This test was performed with the electric start, not pulling it over by hand.
