Dubious top ten

The most play money I've ever lost per hand in a session is $25,000. That was a cash game session where I bought in for $50,000 and hit the felt on hand 2. Strange as it may seem, in both sessions when I lost more than a million play dollars, the amount lost per hand was more respectable than that - $4,367 and $2,247. Last night, by losing $3,696 per hand, the session made it to the top ten (number 8) on that particular all-time list - a dubious distinction. It certainly didn't help that for the first time ever I entered an MTT NLHE with a $100,000 BI+EF. This was due to impatience; no $20,000 or $50,000 was in the offing at the time, and I didn't feel like waiting.
