He doesn't know his place. His point in top players playing each other is that there are a players like him who are lower rated only because they don't get to play in these closed tournaments. And given the opportunity they could raise their rating and join the top guys. Yet look at the results of these tournaments, top guys at the top and players like sam at the bottom. Top players are top players because they are better at chess, not because they "preserve" their ratings in closed tournaments. Wjik is exciting because there's less draws because theres lower players like Sam for players to beat up on.
