One hand to rule them all

Looking at the bar chart of my stack size over the course of last night's session, one observation stands head and shoulders above the rest. On hand 11, I was dealt cowboys (pocket kings), and more than doubled up with them. It may sound strange to say, but I prefer cowboys to rockets (pocket aces). Rockets are just too hard to let go, which can lead you to heartbreak and ruin. My poker data supports this preference; here are my top 10 highest grossing hands in MTT-R NLHEs, by aggregate profit in chips:

KK     1,639,108
AA     1,329,344
JJ       583,861
QQ       483,528
AJo      465,174
AKo      418,579
99       408,714
TT       360,664
AQs      295,190
ATo      273,253


Unfortunately, I missed the money last night by a country mile.
