Personal best

Last night, at the end of the session, I set an interesting personal best. I achieved my biggest hand delta ever for a hand which didn't end up going to showdown. When there's a lot of money in the pot, most often one or more of your opponents will be priced in to call any river bet you make. The poker term for this is "pot committed". I'd been dealt 3d 6h, and the flop came 9d 3s 6c. I checked, then raised a $5,000 bet to $12,000 and got three callers. The turn was 4d; I bet $10,000 and got one caller. The river was Js; I bet $10,000 again and my opponent folded. I won a pot worth $79,000 without a showdown; $56,000 of this was other people's money.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 67 hands and saw flop:
 - 9 out of 9 times while in big blind (100%)
 - 6 out of 9 times while in small blind (66%)
 - 26 out of 49 times in other positions (53%)
 - a total of 41 out of 67 (61%)
 Pots won at showdown - 7 of 9 (77%)
 Pots won without showdown - 7

delta: $71,328
cash game no limit hold'em balance: $5,199,157
balance: $7,556,110
