Cash splashes

One thing I realize I really missed when I was playing tournaments was the ability to make a cash splash. In cash games, every hand has an immediate effect on your stack. To go even further, every time you call, bet, or raise in a cash game hand, that action has an immediate effect on your stack. Namely, it reduces it by the amount that you called, bet, or raised. You've essentially kissed that money goodbye. If you win the hand, you get the money back, but don't fool yourself that it wasn't gone in the meantime :-) In tournaments, no single hand has an immediate effect on your stack.

What do I mean by a cash splash? When you win a pot in a cash game which gives you a hand delta greater than or equal to your initial stake. Since I play $200/$500 tables with a maximum initial stake of $50,000, and always buy in for the maximum, a cash splash for me is $50,000. Last night, I had a cash splash of $64,608 on hand 8.
