Triple draw trials and tribulations

I must stop playing triple draw

It's been a wet weekend - good for online poker - and I finished it marginally ahead despite getting absolutely pummelled in triple draw. I've just lost $50 in 138 hands of that infuriating game, which is actually rather good compared to some of my recent efforts - yesterday I dropped $100 in only 76 hands of 1/2.

I don't have a HUD or anything of that sort but Stars gives you some basic stats. However they mask a lot of the detail. For instance in this evening's TD session half the hands I showed down were winners (11 of 22) but if you sorted the hands by size of pot, my name hardly figured near the top of the list. I didn't make a seven the entire session while my opponents made sevens for fun, often after drawing multiple cards.
These are the hands I did show down (ignoring stuff like pairs) where blues are winners, reds are losers and green denotes the hand where I won only the side pot.
