Recently read a blog stating that an 8.0 mixed team consisting of a 4.5 man/3.5 woman usually win about 61% of the time when they play against two 4.0s. Why do you think that would be the case?
The blog went on to state that against a 4.5 woman/3.5 man, the team with the 4.5 man would win about 87% of the time-which makes sense to me. In addition, the 4.5 woman/3.5 man would win about 53% of the time against two 4.0s.
What is it about the 4.5 man that would make it difficult for two 4.0s? Is he really that good or is it the 3.5 woman who is making the difference? Or are the 4.0s not using the best strategy. Would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.
