No, for logit i just use 1 if player win and 0 if he lost. If it tie, both
players have 0. For actual scories it better to have OLS model, but i do not
need actual scories.

I have try conditional logit, but it no good. First, in R package, predict
function do not working for this model, if i need to calculiate data out of
sample. I have check the actual code, and it design to work this way, there
is no bug or something. So it can be used only for in sample explanation.

Cheers,
Dmitrij
