In Response To: Simple Probability Problem (Jake Jacobs)

I tried figuring Elo differences.

If all the matches were to 7 points there should be a diffence of about 720 and if they were all 11 points about 575.

In either case it should give the weaker player a 10% chance in a match of the respective length.
