Sorry, Tim Foden: you were correct: I left out two aspects of the set up for the experiment: thanks for catching me. The steps I left out were: 1. Opponents switch sides so that each plays white an equal number of times. 2. Chances in all games must be (modeled as) independant of the time at which they were played (to keep the math and concepts simple) and thus learning must be overlooked. Please accept my apology for leaving those out. I am sorry for wasting the time you spent solving the miss stated problem.
