a great explanation of single and especially double elimination which I

It's also possible to combine formats. Ie:  round-robin in small groups,
and the winner go on to a double or single-elim tourney.

This is often used for national/international sporting events, such as World
Cup football or Olympic Hockey, etc... you have to win (or sometimes come in
second)in your group to advance to the finals.
