yaps: dalwal

It's time once again for me to introduce another poker statistic. I call this one dalwal. It stands for "doing a lot with a little". It's geared towards MTTs, and ideally should only be calculated for the ones where you made the money. Here's the formula:

dalwal = sum_in_chips / (num_entries * buy_in * num_hands)

where sum_in_chips is the sum of the number of chips you had at the start of each hand. This formula calculates your average percentage of the total chips in play. The smaller your dalwal is, the more impressive your feat of making the money. On Friday night, I had an MTT with the smallest dalwal of my top nine MTTs by percentile; here's the ordered list:

0.0046  2016-09-16a
0.0077  2016-07-10a
0.0107  2016-08-05a
0.0129  2015-09-04a
0.0160  2016-06-21b
0.0183  2016-07-07e
0.0213  2015-09-09a
0.0218  2016-07-29a
0.0219  2016-07-28b


In other news, I had my fourth winning cash game in a row.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 56 hands and saw flop:
 - 6 out of 9 times while in big blind (66%)
 - 5 out of 8 times while in small blind (62%)
 - 17 out of 39 times in other positions (43%)
 - a total of 28 out of 56 (50%)
 Pots won at showdown - 5 of 11 (45%)
 Pots won without showdown - 6
