There's another interesting stat i sort of made up. When you go into PTs misc stats it gives you a total dollar amount for all your final hands. If you check 'show only hands that were not folded', you get a significantly larger number. My ratio between these two amounts is 5.2, and I was wondering if that number can be used to find out if you get involved in a lot of hands but fold before the river or showdown, leaving a lot of money behind. is this useful? Is it a mark of becoming a wuss or keeping your balls as a hand progresses? My nerd sense is tingling...

Are you saying 5:2 (5 to 2 AKA 2.5 to 1) or 5.2 to 1?

This sounds like a similar stat to WtSD (Went-to-showdown) more than anything else. Though, since it is in dollars in that tab, it is weighted by how much money you committed. I'd think as your ratio gets smaller, it would indicate to me that you're paying more for draws. The higher your ration, it would seem like you manage to stay in until the showdown pretty cheaply in hopes of hitting a draw.
