In Response To: DE (Tom Keith)

"In fact, it is (slightly) more likely that the winner of the Second Chance is a stronger player than the winner of the Main."

i don't understand this statement, please elucidate. why would someone with a loss that has been competing against players with a loss be a stronger player than the one without a loss? this is very counter-intuitive.
