Since Pablo drew 2 games against Hydra,You should also challenge him,You don't
have to operate your program manually,such a match can be automated.There you
claim "Pablo can get 3 draws with Zappa assuming he got 2 draws versus Hydra"
Its possible that Pablo can win atleast 9 games out of 10 against an amateur
program.

the question to you is:Why don't you let Pablo play Zappa?

Don't forget that Hydra will also be there,It'sretty clear that Hydra software
is better than the public Zappa,Hardware much better than your current hardware.
