details, data source, code

This is strange.... If Jaedong is so favored against Symbol, how comes his probability to advance is so low? Are his chances against center that low?

45% is not really low.
If Jaedong loses against Center, he loses tiebreaker vs Byun+Center, so he basically has to win both.

If Byun goes 4-0 and Symbol loses his next 2 games and Jaedong goes 2-2 then there will be a 3 way tie.

So basically Symbol has to lose this next game to let Center get through? So weird, lol.

Well JD's ZvZ is pretty good and Symbol's is mediocre so we'll wait and see I guess.

If Jaedong loses the day is over, since ByuN will at worst get 2-2, while Center/Jaedong can at best get 2-2, so they could be tied, but ByuN beat both so he advances, and if Symbol goes 3-0, no one except ByuN can get more than 3 wins.
