ELO is very hard to understand, but it's best to look at it this way, from a quote I pulled somewhere:

"ELO is never perfect, and is never close to so until you've played, oh, 10,000 ranked games, and that's a start. As well as that, that's assuming you don't get better or worse - otherwise, restart the counter"
