A Widow for One Year

Though I'm a big fan of John Irving, somehow I've never gotten around to reading his 1998 novel "A Widow for One Year". That won't stop me from appropriating its title for the title of this post, however. You don't have to read a book in order to recognize the power of its title. The power of this one is industrial strength.

What do I mean by a widow for one year? Simply stated, the feeling of being out of the blue for an extended period of time. The longest continuous stretch my cash game no limit hold'em balance has ever been out of the blue is 133 sessions, from May 19th, 2013 through October 10th, 2013. My current stretch, which started on August 29th, just hit 31 sessions.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 55 hands and saw flop:
 - 3 out of 7 times while in big blind (42%)
 - 7 out of 8 times while in small blind (87%)
 - 22 out of 40 times in other positions (55%)
 - a total of 32 out of 55 (58%)
 Pots won at showdown - 5 of 9 (55%)
 Pots won without showdown - 3

delta: $8,636
cash game no limit hold'em balance: $6,656,956
balance: $9,562,055
