Both bad luck and good luck. I could lose to _anybody_ in any game. But overall my probability to do well doesn't look _that_ bad, based on the kind of performance I was seeing in the last CCT event... Remember, too, that _I_ am not the person that predicts victory and has to make excuses when it doesn't happen. All I'll say is "Crafty will be _very_ competitive whether it wins or loses all games..." If it wins, great. Been there, done that, got two T-shirts already. If it loses, that's ok as well. At least it will be there. And you-know-who can't continue his nonsense about why I don't participate... The reason is and always has been about the time required, not about winning chances. Otherwise I would have stayed home in 1989 knowing that my (or anyone's) chances of beating Deep Thought were way down there... I can take my lumps. I don't particularly like taking a lot of crap however. :)
