Can't believe it because statically it's impossible. You can look at odds of one player beating another by using elo. After about a 500 point difference, the lower player has no chance of winning. Sure there are good days and bad days for players. Other than that there is no luck. Here is a 700 point difference...if lower player loses you can bet the farm there was cheating.

You should do this again but troll Levy by having Stanz (or whoever you play) secretly have an expert too and neither tells their expert about the other. That way they basically play each other and get more and more confused by the other’s skills as the game goes on 😂 You could even not tell the audience and give them the same premise as this video and we’d all be played
