Best Feeling in poker

When the lady next to you in a live game grabs your crotch and says "Nice pocket pair" That would be the best feeling.

Maybe gingerly caresses would be better. I don't like the whole grabbing thing, sounds kind of painful.

Good thread. Here's my list:

1) Playing at the final table of a tournament. There's nothing like it. It doesn't matter if it's a $10 or $1000 event. Every hand is huge.

2) In big-bet ring games:
a) Doubling through/breaking somebody. Pretty cool to start a hand with $1500 or so and end it with $3000+.
b) Winning a big pot by running a successful bluff or picking one off.
c) Making a big (correct) laydown that would've cost most players their entire stack.

3) Scooping a big pot in stud/8 or omaha/8. I guess it may feel a little better when you get there on the river, but getting there on the turn/6th and having your hand hold up is great, too.

4) Being rolled up in stud.
