Zero crossings

A zero crossing is a hand where your net balance on the session moves from one side of zero to the other. A session in which your net balance never fell below zero has no zero crossings. If you lose the first hand of the session, the only way to have a winning session is to have an odd number of zero crossings. If you win the first hand of the session, the only way to have a winning session is to have an even number of zero crossings. Last Friday night, I had a very strange session. I was underwater for the first 68 hands, then had my first zero crossing on hand 69. In relatively short order, I had four more. The final one came on the penultimate hand of the night, when I won a pot worth $61,604 with a king high flush.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 86 hands and saw flop:
