Depends on rating. Let's presume that on average, you play against players at the same ability level as you. At lower rating about, 48% win rate is good with 4% drawn. This should tend towards 0% as you approach perfect play, with 100% drawn.

Chess hashnt been sholved yert, you cant jushtrelrkrtrrdzszh come here and claim that with perfect play from by both playersh you will reach 100% dr lol.

Once you’ve got a statistically significant number of games, you’ll be right around 50% forever unless you reach the stratosphere and there aren’t higher rated players to match you with and you proceed to win 100% from then on because you’re the best player in the world. The system insures 50/50 over the long haul.
Even big streaks get corrected by a high loss rate when it ends. I once went something like 18-2 and shot up 150 points but that bubble burst when I was matched with way better players and took a pounding for a while.

I don't think the system insures 50/50. I only have a 43% win rate. Playing a lot of games wont even you out I think. I have played 1,200 games of chess. Unless the number of games I would need to play should be higher? I'm currently a 475.
