Default Re: Phil\'s soooooooooo lucky

I'll assume that you are not being sarcastic and that you don't understand my point.

Nah, just yanking your chain Joey, sorry I couldn't help myself! It was not sarcasm by the way, just a joke.

I was thinking: is there anyway to get information about how many and wich tourneys Phil has entered in say the last 3 years. Cardplayer.com gives the rankings but only mentions the tourneys where he placed.

Instead of sharing ignorance here, maybe we could actually crunch some numbers!

Just a hypothetical example: if we assume that Phil is among the top 25% in any turney he enters and that the average turney has 400 players. Then we would expect him to be at the fianl table in 10 out of 100 turneys (please correct me if I'm wrong). Then we could start figuring out SD and all that other fun statistical stuff.
