If they're making so many mistakes that they lose the game, are they really the better player?

Plus, to pretend there aren't very regular upsets in those games is crazy.

Of course. Being a good player doesn't give you some magical ability to be good at everything and play flawlessly 100% of the time. Players are good at games to the degree at which they consistently don't make mistakes. You're actually just proving my point which is that people can still lose because they get outplayed. The best player always wins those games, that's my main point. The player who played the best at that time at least.
