i know this is shocking but you need to understand what i mean you know when u get 3 outed or fold and u would of sucked out on the river and you are like dam and u axidentally hit something like a table or kick and stub your toe.

I am wondering what are the worst injuries you got from one of these

personally i just hurt my hand hitting it on my table braking one of the legs on my table and making my computer fall on my foot.

It wasn't even that bad i had q.3 in big blind flop came q.6.3 the guy bets i call next card is a king i knew he has k.q because it was obvious their was a short stack already in i fold to his shove of 9k and i have 8k he shows his k.q the next card would of been my 3 to give me the full house.

next thing i know i puty much smacked my table which was made by my grandpa who i guess don't know how to use glue and nails correctly the leg breaks and the computer fell on my foot

I actually have an online related poker injury. I played for way too long one day and leaned on my left arm on the desk. Apparently I pinched or damaged my Ulner Nerve somehow and my arm has been killing me for 2 weeks. It started out as tingling in my pinky and half of my ring finger and now it's extreme pain along the pinky side of my whole arm up into my tricep.
If you guys play long sessions don't lean on your arm with your elbow on the desk. This situation really sucks and from what I've read there's nothing doctors can do, you just have to wait it out.

If you're hurting yourself because of beats or whatever you really need to learn to calm down and take a few deep breaths. I have no poker injuries nor broken furniture to post.

I was watching the WPT other day. They were airing the final table of the Bellagio Cup. Justin Smith tore his ACL when running to the rail. Had to finish with a pack of ice strapped to his leg and his leg elevated. Tho I guess the payday might have eased some of his pain. :p

I hurt my shoulder punching someone who picked a fight with me after a live game.

I also have a callus on my wrist from where it rubs against the desk when I move the mouse.
