This contradicts another of your posts. You said that if you (a master) try to
win against H7 (and you admitted you have played it a lot), you lose with the
same frequency that you would expect to lose to a GM. As a result, it seems you
defeat your own argument.

P.S. I am assuming the cutoff between master and < master is 2200. Is this
correct?
