Shot from howitzers

I've talked before about shot from guns tournaments - those are ones where your first nonzero hand delta is positive. That's the weakest definition. A stronger definition of such a tournament is one where your very first hand delta is positive. Now I'm here to tell you about shot from howitzers tournaments :-) These are tournaments where your very first hand delta is positive, and is the largest absolute value hand delta of all. Almost by definition, you're not going to make the money in a shot from howitzers tournament. I had a shot from howitzers last night, and missed the money by two country miles.
