What is the largest pot (in Big Bets) you have ever won?

O Doyle Rules · #1 07-08-2004, 11:51 AM

I believe mine occurred last night -- 49.3 Big Bets playing $5/$10 at Empire. Full house, Jacks over 4s. Pot was capped preflop, flop, and turn with five players calling.

My best happened right after I first started. Party 0.50/1....In late position I have AJo, 9 in on the flop, no raises. Flop was T8Q rainbow, bet, raised, I called the raise (I was a beginner); 4 in for the turn: K, betting was capped with all 4 players along; 4 in for the river: 4, capped again; 3 to the showdown: KJo, J9o (flopped straight) and my AJo for the nut straight...34.5 big bets.

45 BB's with quad 5's. The biggest I've ever seen was won by my buddy with a set of 5's on a KT5 board; two guys had AK, one guy had AA, another had KT, and two other guys had QJ. That pot was 67 BB's.

sfer · #7 07-08-2004, 01:58 PM

Almost 50 BBs. 4 ways, capped every street with a maniac. Set over set over set over overpair. I had a set of 9s, there was a set of 8s, a set of 7s, and TT.

Inthacup · #8 07-08-2004, 02:11 PM

I called the raise (I was a beginner)

Calling the raise is correct.

you didn't slow down with 4 people capping it and you didn't have the nuts, crazy fool!

I will have to change my screenname for this, in my fishier days on empire, in a 3-6 game, I called a 4-8 sooooooted on a raise in the BB...6 or 7 players in...player in early position re-raised, and some other yahoo who was out after the flop said "why not" and capped...when it got to me there was 60$ in the pot, and I couldnt help it...(what if I got 3 4's? my impressionable mind said..)...so theres an 8 on the flop along with a j and 3, I call the one bet for the turn, and theres a 4. and I give it a bump..I get re-raised and capped..river is k .so I decided to just call along with the madness...there is some face cards(but no flush or straight possibilities)...a lot of raising...(esp with the guy with 3-8) and I took down a $236 dollar pot...and never showed my face again. That's 40bb
