A new zip code

On Saturday night, I had enough luck and skill to put my balance into a new zip code. I crossed the $2,800,000 boundary for the first time. It's now a semi-realistic goal to try to hit $3,000,000 in play money before the end of the year.

Looking at the bar chart of my stack size over the course of the session, one hand sticks out like a sore thumb. On that one, I won a pot worth $72,700 with two pair, queens and eights. Given that there was an ace in the flop, I probably should have folded when one of my opponents went all in on the river, but I didn't. What can I say? An old cliche applies here: sometimes it's better to be lucky than good!

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 56 hands and saw flop:
- 8 out of 11 times while in big blind (72%)
- 5 out of 11 times while in small blind (45%)
- 27 out of 34 times in other positions (79%)
- a total of 40 out of 56 (71%)
Pots won at showdown - 7 of 12 (58%)
Pots won without showdown - 7

delta: $75,200
balance: $2,831,187
