If it's a GENERAL discussion, you should write in English.

It should also be pointed out, that it is possible to score big either by good tactics or pure dumb luck 4000 is quite a lot though

Worldlingo Translation?
The translation sucks.
Confidence comes before decay, and arrogance comes before falling
--> Vertrouwen komt voor verval, en arrogantie komt voor het vallen
It is more like this:
| Quote: | Pride goes before destruction,
and a haughty spirit before a fall |
or this:
| Quote: | Pride goes before disaster,
and a haughty spirit before a fall |
Proverbs 16:18
In an older dutch translation there is written:
| Quote: | Hovaardigheid is voor de verbreking,
en hoogheid des geestes voor den val! |

* no the translation was of my humble own 
Confidence comes before decay, and arrogance comes before falling
--> Vertrouwen komt voor verval, en arrogantie komt voor het vallen
* your backtranslation isnt too far away from my try i think. in addition confidence was meant in the meaning of SELF-confidence , nmaybe i should have pointed that out more

According to my Van Dale Groot Elektronisch Woordenboek Hedendaags Nederlands (1997)
hovaardij:
de zucht om zich op eigen voortreffelijkheid of aanzien voor te laten staan
hoogmoed:
te hoge dunk van zichzelf
So arrogance will do, but (self)confidence don't.
