Biggest pot ever?

[UATrewqaz]

I have a 48.5 BB pot win (only at 1/2) but large in terms of BB.

This is with me wussing out on the river and missing out on 3+ more BB.

I know....one of my one and only shots at 1/2 right there. and YES...I did donkily sit down the min-buy in....

(this was back before my 2+2 days and before my even basic understanding of BR management days)

Maybe your statement explains why he was so quick to call my all-in with 88.

...I suck...

Canterbury Park last night at a 6/12 game. There was some random betting maybe 8 BB in the pot before the river. On the river its heads up. They go for 20+ bets before someone is all in. One guy has the A high flush, the other thought he had a straight flush when he was still gutted. You think he would have stopped and actually checked his hand when the guy with the ace high flush told him that a straight flush was impossible. I dont know the exact count, but it was over 50BB By the time it was over.
