 Tournament - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Double-elimination tournaments are less cutthroat than single-elimination tournaments, as a player is allowed to lose one game without being dropped from the tournament.
Likewise, some tournaments use a "game" for a single round, but some use a "match" which is best 2 games of 3, best 3 games of 5, or whatever is appropriate.
One notable event that uses a double-elimination tournament is the College World Series, the NCAA baseball championship in the United States.
