I had to come back and do this about the morning after yesterdays d/t work schedule.  Which was a bummer because my hand hurts.   But now, writing this another 12 hours later it is feeling much better.  For this workout anyway: I was stoked about the power snatch PR.  I can say though it felt more awkward and a little less powerful than squat snatching...I just feel like I either drop all the way into a squat or I do such a little dip when I power snatch.  Regardless, I got 103.  Rack pulls sucked because my hand hurt.  Which would have been just a pain problem except that I could not seem to force my hand to hang on.  I couldn't pick up more than 225 because I was having to hold it mostly in my fingers.  Frustrating.  The first amrap was all good.  I did 3 of the sets of DU's unbroken.  The second amrap was a lung burner.  And I did 1.5 pood russian because I was nervous about my grip going overhead.  Thanks!
