The rarest of the rare

As I've mentioned before, I love rarities, even when they're not in my favor. Last night, the rarest of the rare occurred - a cash game session which satisfied all of the following criteria:

1. it was a losing session
2. the biggest loss occurred on one of the last two hands of the session
3. I didn't hit the felt on the final hand

Just how rare was this? Here are the numbers:

783 cash game no limit hold'em sessions
270 sessions satisfying the first criterion
 72 sessions satisfying criteria 1 and 2
  3 sessions satisfying criteria 1, 2, and 3

Therefore, the rarity is 3 out of 783, or 38/100ths of a percent. For all intents and purposes, it's something that never happens :-)

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 100 hands and saw flop:
 - 7 out of 13 times while in big blind (53%)
 - 7 out of 13 times while in small blind (53%)
 - 25 out of 74 times in other positions (33%)
 - a total of 39 out of 100 (39%)
 Pots won at showdown - 5 of 10 (50%)
 Pots won without showdown - 3

 delta: $-49,331
cash game no limit hold'em balance: $5,891,403
balance: $7,180,634
