The best of a bad thing

It's bad to have a 100% underwater session. It's even worse to have a long 100% underwater session, since the odds are you will end up having lost more money than you would have had the session been shorter. My yardstick for a long session is 100 hands or more. Last night, I made the best of a bad thing. I had my 34th 100% underwater session of 100 hands or more, but only lost $15,465. That clocked in as my sixth smallest loss of those sessions.

Along the way, the poker gods redressed a wrong I'd suffered recently, namely the time I lost $20,750 when my king high flush lost to an ace high flush. The tables were turned, as this time I had the ace high flush to my opponent's king high flush, and won a pot worth $76,111, $42,620 of which was o.p.m. (other people's money).

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 101 hands and saw flop:
 - 6 out of 13 times while in big blind (46%)
 - 5 out of 13 times while in small blind (38%)
 - 25 out of 75 times in other positions (33%)
 - a total of 36 out of 101 (35%)
 Pots won at showdown - 4 of 12 (33%)
 Pots won without showdown - 4

delta: $-15,465
cash game no limit hold'em balance: $6,258,675
balance: $8,772,419
