Avg. Total Winnings (including possible ToC): $26,385
ToC projection update:
With a projected 87 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 250,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 3.1894 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.3852).
An average of 4.9218 4+-time champions (standard deviation 1.6905).
An early cutoff took place 16.816% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).
Tim Kutz qualified 57.766% of the time.
Todd Giese qualified 18.535% of the time.
Rob Liguori qualified 3.891% of the time.
Fred Vaughn qualified 0.745% of the time.
(Note: Due to the possibility of a WGA strike, I feel that it is more accurate for ToC projections to add 20 games to the end of the previous projected qualifying period.)
Miscellany:
- Thank you to Jay Johnson for providing me with a full chart of this game.
