Whats the biggest tip youve ever seen?

[MarkL444]

I dont play live often and when I do its usually a smaller game. I think the biggest tip I've seen was maybe $20 or so. Just curious what the biggest tip some of you who player higher have seen. I imagine theres some drunks/idiots who give away a lot of money.

I didnt actually see it, but gonores once tipped the whole pot in a $3/$6 game, don't recall the exact amount but it was over $20.

edit - here it is

Bicyclekick went home around 3, but 3/6 all-star and other young 2+2ers are still there. Somehow, on my BB, we get one limper and Edge completes in the SB. I have a momentary lapse of judgment and check with 97o. I immediately recognize my mistake and begin chewing myself out. I bet an A84 flop and get a caller. I’m still enraged about the preflop check. 7 comes on the turn, I bet and get a fold from the new-guy limper. I am so pissed at myself for missing the extra $6 preflop that when the dealer starts pushing me the pot, I tell him I don’t want it. Keep it, Richard. This pushes 3/6 all-star off the edge. The look on his face will forever be etched in my memory…you could just see him trying to calculate how many ramen noodle meals that $21 could buy. It took him a good half of a hand for the magnitude of the events that just transpired to register with him so he could go tell the posse of our most recent transgression. As the dealer thanked me profusely for the tip, I replied (for the umpteenth time that evening) “I do what I can. I’m a humanitarian.”

i've seen sfer do the same. oddly enough, he was drunk and acting like an idiot at the time.

There was a lot of pre-showdown tiping as well as pot-chopping with the dealer last night in the Commerce 2+2 game. sfer did a lot of it.

For the record, the idiocy was entirely unrelated to the drinking.

There was a guy from LA - a movie producer or something by the name of David (aka DD). He would come into our games now and then and would often tip the whole pot. We had wild 'n crazy 10-20 kill games with $800 pots occurring quite frequently. He would be rooting like hell for a club or whatever he needed to make his flush. He would be yelling to the dealer "put a club out there, sweetheart and the pot is yours". Boom - off comes the 3c and down goes $800 into the dealer's toke box.

The dude was nuts.

The guy sounds cool. I like how no matter what the river card is he still loses the pot.
