A whale of a tournament

A good tournament, like a good book, will have a well-defined beginning, middle, and end. When it meets these criteria, the bar chart of your stack size will often be a whaleback. Such was the case last night. In the first part of the tournament, my stack was underwater. About a third of the way in, it burst through the surface, and proceeded to scale the heights. In the final quarter, it dropped like a stone :-) Luckily for me, I made the money and then some before I hit the rail.
