Burt and Bert created a show that was basically a variation of What's My Line. The only difference was that they featured pairs that had something in common with each other. A similar premise was used in the classic game show Make the Connection, which starred Gene Rayburn.
Peter Marshall hosted the pilot, and was supposed to be the host of the series. However, for some reason, Bert Convy, who produced the show, decided he wanted to host it himself. As a result, Bert had to find someone else to host Win, Lose or Draw, and chose a guy that resembled Bert Convy, an unknown named Robb Weller. Peter mentioned in his book that he was hurt to be let go, and resented Bert Convy since.
