In a badminton competition, $16$ players participate, of which $10$ are professionals and $6$ are amateurs. In the first phase, eight games are drawn. Among the eight winners of these games, four games are drawn. The four winners qualify for the semi-finals of the competition. Assuming that, whenever a professional player and an amateur play each other, the professional wins the game, what is the probability that an amateur player will reach the semi-finals of the competition?
