We have THREE, 5-team pools (groups of teams labeled RED, WHITE and BLUE) ... with the TOP THREE teams, from EACH pool advancing out of pool play. The RUNNER-UP of one pool, plays the THIRD PLACE team of another pool ... with THAT winner, then playing the FIRST place, pool winner, from the THIRD remaining pool ... (NOW, it gives nine teams a better chance, thus, even with a COUPLE of BAD games, a GREAT team, could still run the table, and claim our 2023 CHAMPIONSHIP title.)
