Default Knock Out Curve

I thought it might be interesting to track the number of players remaining in a Freeroll. The idea is to see if there are any trends as to when people get knocked out. I took the following data last week and noticed a fairly smooth curve for the first hour of play (30 knocked out every 10 minutes). I got knocked out at the first break, so I stopped taking data.

Min ..SB ..BB Plyrs #KO-ed
000 000 000 285 00
010 010 020 255 30
020 020 040 226 29
030 030 060 187 39
040 040 080 160 27
050 050 100 143 17
060 100 200 111 32

Min = Minutes, SB = Small Blind, BB = Big Blind,
Plyrs = Players, #KO-ed = Number of People Knocked Out.
I attached a chart and hope that it shows OK.
It would be interesting to chart the WSOP tournie.
