Why are my total hands different?

[K_Kahne_Fan]

Why is it that my "Starting Hands" total is different than my "Final Hands" total? I thought "Final Hands" may have meant 'final hands which did win', but I know I didn't win that many hands . So then I thought it may have meant 'final hands which WOULD have won', again I wouldn't have won that many , plus if you look at the highlighted supposed "high hand" you can see that babyblue_961's pair of kings actually won the hand, so I'm unsure what exactly the "high card" title means and how the total is calculated which makes me question how any of the "Final Hands" total is calculated. Any input is appreciated.

Your final hand is the best hand you would have made if you'd seen all the cards that were dealt.
There *should* be the same number as total hands, but there are occasions (I have examples at Full Tilt) where the hand history doesn't include your hole cards (maybe the hand wasn't actually dealt out), which explains the difference for me.

Try doing some filtering by levels or days and see if you can find some examples of sets of hands which are causing the differences.

Final hands do not include hands that did not see a flop.

LOL - OK, that would make a bigger difference!

Thanks! So, for me, no flop is seen about 33% of the time.

No, the final hands are calculated even if you fold. I'm referring to hands where there is no flop.

Sorry, that's what I meant, at the tables I'm at, action is folded PF about 33% of the time. However, this is my tourney area so it makes sense that once I'm heads up there's [b746]a lot[/b746] of PF folds, so no flop is seen.
