Back in the black

When you play sit and go no limit hold'em, you can make money in a hurry. Last night, I had my third "in the sweetness" session in a row, and it was the sweetest of the three. Like the first two, I played four tournaments. Like the first two, I made the money three times. This time, however, I came in first all three times. Not only that, they were consecutive firsts. On the strength of those results, my 2016 balance vaulted back into the black. I got curious to see how many times I've had three firsts in a row, and ran the numbers. I remembered doing it once before. As it turns out, I'd done it four times before. Not too shabby :-)
