Please notice that Phil Innes has only a provisional USCF rating,
meaning that he has only played 24 games or less, and the highest
rated player he has ever defeated in his life was rated 2060, and he
has a slew of losses to Class B rated players:

For me to bet one thousand dollars that I can beat him would be a very
safe bet, like money in the bank.
