    Something mildly interesting is his game 3 guesses. He said 'at the beginning, black played like 400, but then played like a 1700 for the rest of the game.' Then he guessed the range as 970 to 1130. I'm not sure if he did this on purpose, but the those ranges have the exact same average (1050).

      you can do tell this pretty easily by adding the two together
      1700 + 400 = 2100
      970 + 1130 = 2100
