Statistical anomaly

The only memorable thing about last night's session was a statistical anomaly - my percentile was exactly 50.  In other words, I did better than exactly half of the field. This is only possible, of course, when there's an even number of entrants, and when you've outlasted the late registration period, securing yourself an official place. Last night's tournament was only the eighth one in my MTT NLHE career where this anomaly occurred. Oh, the lengths I must sometimes go to on this blog, to find something to write about :-)
