When I returned to chess programs after a few decades with Stockfish 5 minute highest rating, I lost the first couple games. No program, I’ll just start it with Queen odds. Lost the next couple, which shocked me. I realized that I remembered zero opening theory, so I had it play itself, chose the London, and eventually got to 50/50 with only Queen Knight odds. Even “won” a normal game, sort of (found the winning move it hadn’t but couldn’t convert on my own).
