In this case, it does, because you are not limited to one player. The events are stochastically independent. If you break it down—
11% – both picks play 100 games – 2 x 0.11 = 0.22
44% – one plays 100 games, one doesn't – 1 x 0.44 = 0.44
45% – neither pick plays 100 games – 0 x 0.45 = 0
Which adds up to a statistical chance equal to 0.66 of a 100-game player.
