Went big and went home

Many people, in many walks of life, espouse the maxim "Go big or go home". In the poker world, however, what that often results in is "Went big and went home" :-) "big goodbye" and "went big and went home" are nearly the same thing; the only difference is, some scenarios which qualify as "went big and went home" don't qualify as "big goodbye" since the absolute value of the hand delta isn't quite big enough to be the largest of the absolute values of the hand deltas. For the record, no fall in could ever qualify for "went big and went home", but it's sort of an open question how big the delta should be to qualify.

Last night, I had two more big goodbyes, running my streak of big goodbyes to four. I'm hoping to end that streak tonight.
