In the three games I lost for the first loss 12 points, for the second loss 9
points and for the draw I won 7 points.

For him it looks like this: He won 12 points, then he won 11 points and for the
draw he lost 8 points. Overall his Elo is 150 higher than mine. But his based on
300 games, mine on 30.
