Look at the discrepancy between the number of blitz wins and losses. Such a
discrepancy usually indicates (I think) that the lower rated human challenges
extremely highly rated computers frequently (explaining the surplus of losses).
Low risk, high gain as far as ratings go. For every 30 games losing nothing or a
point he could win 1 game gaining 40 points and still come out on top.

Someone please tell me if I'm wrong.
