    Ive got a great one! First time ever playing poker at a casino, had pocket aces, went all in for like 200 bucks or something and got called by some stupid biitch with pocket kings and of course she flops a set of kings, and is dancing around with her gay guito jersey shore boyfriend and acting totally gay. Blank on the turn and karma comes through with an ACE ON THE RIVER, and the entire table exploded and everyone was happy with the result (because of how tooled out she was).

    AK clubs for me (3rd-largest stack) vs. KK (chipleader) vs. JJ (shortstack) at a $100/$9 final table on FullTilt, 9 players left. Shortstack is the first to act and as expected with that hand goes all in. Everyone folds to the chipleader who promply raises an extra 30%. I decide to call, committing about 35% of my total chips. Flop comes, two clubs and a king. I've got top pair and a flush draw and am feeling very confident at this point. Chipleader checks and I, not wanting to seem overanxious (and thinking he's got something like QQ at this point) decide to check as well. Turn comes and it's a club. Awesome. As long as another pair doesn't board, I've got the nuts. Chipleader decides to bet, causing me to commit another 20% or so of my chips, and I decide to just call. I'd never made it that far before on a big buy-in tournament before (the tournament started out with like 950 players). Flop comes, no pairs on the board. Awesome, this hand is mine. Time to take the chipleader down a notch. He checks, and I decide to bet another 15% or so of my stack, hoping he thinks I'm bluffing. Again, I'm putting this dude on queens or maybe trips of one of the smaller cards on the board. He decides to reraise, at which point I go all-in and get called. It was all euphoria and me dancing in my kitchen until about 30 hands later when I am the chipleader with KK and the 2nd-highest chips goes all-in preflop with 1010 and he hits trips and I lose. 3 hands later, drawing basically dead, I am bounced and place 5th in the tournament.

    Playing online a couple years ago on Full Tilt.....

    Was up around $150 or so just playing .25/.50 on a Friday morning; had all intentions of leaving when the big blind came around again, I was running hotter than the sun and wanted to get out while up that high. Not paying attention and put in the big blind by accident.

    I get a pair of 6's. 1st to act raises to $1.50. Everybody folds and it's up to me. I almost folded just thinking "I'll lose the 50 cents and get out, I don't want to risk anything else." But what if I flop a set or something? So I call.

    Flop: K66

    Mother of God you've gotta be kidding me

    I'm 1st to act. I check. He checks

    Turn: 8

    I check. He checks

    (starting to think wtf is going on here)

    River: 10

    I check one more time. Finally he fires almost the size of the pot. I raise. He shoves. DING DING DING DING!!!

    I call. He shows KK.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! What a kick in the nads!

    It ended up being like a $110 pot or so. I cashed out soon after. He left the table so I didn't feel that bad running.

    I won a 4k guaranteed on Tilt many moons ago with a $10 buy in. That's probably my "best win".

    I won like $12k in tournaments one month on Bodog during the poker boom in 2005 I think? Had a nice one on Bodog the other night $10/20 limit game. I'm on the big blind w/JQ off and call $10 raise (shaky call maybe?) but I think 3 others called $20 too. Flop is something like 3810 rainbow.....call $10 and hit the miracle 9. 2 others had 99 and 7J suited for a lower straight. Nice action and river didn't help them.

    A few yrs back in a $1/2 cash game: dealt 77, other two guys AA, KK. The flop came 77K. KK guy leads out, I flat call, AA guy shoves, call, call ...pot close to $900. Not my biggest nightly win because of tourny wins, but a fun god damn hand.
