I know Chance wasn't the same player as Mathewson and not as popular but the Chance seems very undervalued in comparison? Both are extremely difficult. Why does the gap seem to be getting even bigger between these to cards?

You nailed it with the popularity gap. There are some collectors (like me) who stick to the most iconic players, instead of building sets. I have very limited space, so I'd pass on the Chance. Frankly, I'm surprised Chance is in the same stratosphere as Speaker. I assume he gets a boost from Baseball's Sad Lexicon.
