Calibration
The forecast is a deterministic Monte-Carlo engine: every morning it fixes the results that have actually happened and simulates the remainder of the tournament 125,000 times, counting how often each outcome occurs. Because probabilities are read straight off those counts, they are calibrated by construction — a 30% chance happens in close to 30% of runs.
The honest caveats: sample sizes for rare events (a specific final pairing, an unlikely run) are small, so those figures carry real noise; and the model cannot see injuries, suspensions, tactics or form. These are forecasts, not guarantees — a strong favorite still loses often enough to matter.
