    First elimination rule:

    All even number (2,4,6,8) values are elminated:

    2 = 2 eliminated
    3 = 3
    5 = 5
    6(YN) = 6 eliminated
    8 = 8 eliminated
    10(YN) = 1
    11 = 2 eliminated
    14 = 5
    18(YN) = 9
    20 = 2 eliminated
    21 = 3
    22(YN) = 4 eliminated
    23(YN) = 5
    25 = 7
    26 = 8 eliminated
    27 = 9
    28 = 1
    29 = 2 eliminated
    30 = 3
    33 = 6 eliminated
    34 = 7
    35 = 8 eliminated
    36 = 9
    37 = 1
    38(YN) = 2 eliminated
    39 = 3
    41 = 5

    That leaves 16 entries:

    3
    5
    10(YN)
    14
    18(YN)
    21
    23(YN)
    25
    27
    28
    30
    34
    36
    37
    39
    41

    I will pair them off for a coin-flip elimination bracket:

    3 (h) v 41 (t)
    5 (h) v 39 (t)
    YN (h) v 37 (t)
    14 (h) v 36 (t)
    YN (h) v 34 (t)
    21 (h) v 30 (t)
    YN (h) v 28 (t)
    25 (h) v 27 (t)

    21 (h) v 30 (t) TAIL
    YN (h) v 28 (t) TAIL
    25 (h) v 27 (t) TAIL

    Round two bracket:

    3 (h) v 27 (t) HEAD
    39 (h) v 28 (t) HEAD
    YN (h) v 30 (t) TAIL
