How the 10,000 sims landedHow to read this chart
The game is played 10,000 times. Line up every final margin from IND's biggest win to PIT's biggest win, then show them as 100 dots: each dot stands for 100 sims.
Dots further right are bigger PIT wins. Filled dots are sims where PIT covers the market line (the dashed mark); hollow ones are where IND covers.
Count the filled dots and you have the cover chance. A wide spread means the result is hard to call.
