The highest chaparral

What I mean by the high chaparral ... is the number of positive deltas at the top of the list of a session's hand deltas, when this list has been sorted in descending order by absolute value.

This is an excerpt from my blog post of July 23, 2014. Now I want to introduce another term - the highest chaparral. This is when the high chaparral count is equal to the number of positive deltas in the session. In other words, every positive hand delta of the session is greater in magnitude than every negative hand delta of the session. In a losing cause last night, I achieved the highest chaparral. Of course, the fewer positive hand deltas you have, the easier it is to achieve, but even so, it ain't easy :-)
