As the only player with 2 points and the highest win%, if he can just pull out 1 match from his final three he should advance.
Talk about breathing room.

Morris sitting very, very pretty
- Thread starter smashmouth
- Start date
When you are playing the likes of Orcollo,Immonen and Deuel for the HUGE cash that they are offering, I'm not so sure that breathing room exists.
Having said that, yes he is off to a great start and three wins might very well be enough.

The presumption is that no 2 players will win 4 matches.

It was not a presumption. The thread starter said, "if he can just pull out 1 match from his final three he
should advance." Except for Ortmann, Deuel, Reyes or Orcollo can get to 4 wins, BUT the only combination
that 2 players gets to 4 wins that does not include Morris is a Reyes/Orcollo combination...

Beause all of the players capable of chalking up four wins play one another,
the odds favour that two of them can't both can both chalk up four wins.
for example if Reyes beats Immonen ortmann and Deuel to go 4-1, there is no possible way for Immonen and Deuel to get to 4-1 as well.
If Immonen beats Morris, Ortmann and reyes then Reyes can't get to 4-1 either.
If deuel beats Morris Orcollo and reyes, then both Reyes and Orcollo can't get to 4-1
If rodney does get his one win,Immonen Deuel or Orcollo (one of them)will also not be able to get to 4-1.
Also if Ortmann win some of his remaining three matches, that knocks Immonen, Reyes or Orcollo out of the 4-1 equation.
Having said that, there arew some possibilities of that happening.Reyes and Orcollo who have alredy played each other could both get to 4-1,but Orcollo would have to beat Morris in the process.
Deuel and Immonen who have already met each other could also go 4-1.
Orcollo and Immonen could also both go 4-1, but they'd have hope Morris's other win only comes from Deuel.
Ortmann is the key here.IF he goes 0-5 then that open the door for more possible 4 and 1 combinations.
In closing:
If Rodney wins one more match and the stars don't align near perfectly against him, he is most likely in on percentages.

You're right on the botton RJ! As you can see in my previous post, I forgot to
mention Immonen's name, that's why I never thought of the Deuel/Immonen
combination, and the Orcollo/Immonen as well. My bad!
But like what I've been saying, a win out of 3 games for Morris is not a
guarantee, nor his higher % would get him a seat in the finals!
It's starting to look like Morris and Reyes on the finals. Reyes just need one more win. And the rest have to win all their matches in landslides to even have a chance.
Oh, oh, Orcollo missed his chance again.

Right you are.Here's the synopsis.
Rodney Morris is in for sure in all possible tie break scenario's.
All the other four players are still very much in it.
Efren is the favourite however and should need to only win one of his next two matches to take a tie breaker with the best percentage mark.
Ortman and Efren have very simuliar percentages and if they both go 3 and 2 it's going to be close as Efren is only .66 of a percentage point ahead of Ortmann.
Ortmann needs to win and win big to close up the percentage gap,if tied at 3 and 2 with Efren.Having said that .66 could be to much ground to make up,but it is possible if Efren win is a close won and his loss a big one, especially to Ortmann when they meet head to head.
If Ortmann loses one and Efren wins one , it's Efren who joins Rodney.
Deuel,Immonen and Orcollo(virtually deadlocked percentage wise) all need minor miracles.
If Deuel arises from the dead once again, I'm going to go find me a bridge to jump off of.
