In Response To: Denmark v. World Final Match (Casper van der Tak)

Didn't intend that 1) was a necessary effect, however, it does seem that way to me in many of the cases.

Regarding 2), I thought the goal was to have strong players beat slightly less strong players more often. For example, by playing Nackgammon, in a match between two strong players you still have a virtual coin flip; however, when you pit a strong player against a weak player, the skill difference is substantially magnified (say you are 80% instead of 70% in a given match).
