The only way to lose a game is by making an error. If both players
play perfectly, they will draw. However, nobody plays perfectly. The
way to win is to make fewer errors than your opponent.

Strong players make few errors, and their errors are usually minor, so
they get a lot of draws. Weaker players make big errors that result
in losses.
