Default OT: Game Theory/Statistics

I came accross a description of a game some months ago and I'm trying to recall it now. It was a simple game that I believe was used in the discussion of game theory in a programming class, or it might have been during a statistics class. In the game you have two players with some number of tokens, I believe it was 100 each, and some number of boxes, I believe it was 10. Each player could distribute their tokens among the boxes in any proportion they wanted without knowing how many the other player had placed in each box, and you won a box if you put more tokens then the other player in it. The winner of the game was the person who won the most boxes.

Does this sound familier to anyone?
