What's the Most Money You Ever Won in a Single Night? (3 Viewers)

All of these are from 2004-2008 when I was playing quite a bit online and live. The good ole days...

Cash Online - $5/10 NL - $5500
Cash Live - $2/5 PLO - $4000

Trny:
2006 WSOP Main Event - $26,500 (497th out of 8,800,000,000,000,000 participants)
Online trny - winning $10,000 main event seats two years in a row.

Biggest loss was around $4500 playing online, 4 tabling $2/4 NLHE.

~$1900. First place in the first MTT I ever played in. Think there were 60-70 players.

There was a guys there booking a bunch of prop bets. You could bet on anyone to win it all and he had odds for each participant. Since I was an unknown player for the most part, he had me at 20:1. 4 of my buddy's each put $5 on me to win and each won their $100 buy-in back from him. He was not very happy with me. :D
 
Recently in for $100 in a $.25/$.50 no holdem allowed dealers choice game, out for $720

which was awesome because I had a balance of $600 on this set and the seller had already sent me the chips... I absolutely hate owing people money

So about 1/3rd of our cool 48mm Fat Hat turbo tourney set was paid for directly from poker winnings! Normally if I win I can usually buy an energy drink on the ride home with my winnings at best... and those "positive sessions" seem to be few and far between! Lmao
 
In terms of big blinds, it has to be last Thursday…cashed out up $1360 in a .25/.50 PLO session (2720 BB’s)

Biggest single session was playing Blackjack at the Taj Mahal back in the mid 90’s…turned a 1K buy-in at a $25/hand table into almost 15K. I was in my mid 20’s and thought it was all the money in the world lol. No pictures of that because my bag phone couldn’t take pictures :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
 
It’s been ~30 years, but I just turned 18 and my friends dragged me to Vegas. I can’t remember the casino or the stakes, but I won a $350+ hand with a full house on like my second or third hand. I was so nervous they were going to card me, I made my excuses and left 2 hands later.

That was the last time I played in a casino. We play low stakes games among friends for social fun, and have been up $100-$200 a few times, but doubt I’ll see a $350 night again.
 
December 2017, playing double-deck blackjack and a bit of roulette at Park Nova Gorica in Slovenia.
In for 300 euro, out for this: 900 euro plus free roulette chip for my single collection.

Buggest real life tournament was +5600 in a $250 black chip bounty.
Biggest online tournament score was for around 3.8k in a $50 pokerstars series event (2nds place)

Probably my favorite and maybe even most profitable cash game session earlier this year. I played a early morning $10 pokerstars tournament and won. 1st place was around $280. I put $20 in the gas tank and spent another $25 on lunch on the way to Parx. I buy into a 1/3 game with a $500 cap for $220 and ran it up to $2300 in 3 1/2 hours.

There’s something real special about turning $10 into 2k I wish it always worked out like that

My BMW inherited half of this money before I even made it home. The rest went towards playing cards, wsop travel expenses, and expensive steak.

Cash - around $600

Tourney - $1k. It was during the poker boom, every bar in town hosted tournaments. I played in a $1k freeroll at a bar I’ve never been to with locals I’ve never met. Steamrolled everyone and people were clearly pissed when it was heads up with my 80/20 chip share. I bought the house a round and got tf outta there and never went back lol.
 
Cash +$280 at the Aria while I was on vacation. I've only played in a casino a half dozen times though.
Home +$145 in a $0.10/$0.25 home game I started hosting last month. Game plays quite loose, preflop raise of $5 is standard.
