In Response To: Ohio State ABT Results/and a question (Chuck Bower)

Since 1/n of the players make the finals going through first chance and 1/n of them make it through using 2nd chance I am not sure what is meant by one path being harder.

What his simulations showed is that the winner of the 2nd chance bracket on average is a slightly stronger player than the undefeated player going into the finals.
