Everyone has that hand that was scarred. Sometimes it was the highest pot ever won, sometimes it was an unbelievable turnaround... or even a bad beat we never forgot. 😅

What was the largest or most alternative hand you've ever played? It may be due to the value, the emotion, or even the absurdity of the play.
Tell me! I want to see those epic (or tragic) stories! 😂🃏

I know I mis-clicked all in with 7-2 off-suit in a league game a long time ago that went up against a hand like AK or AQ, hit and held but I don't have the screenshot as I was more embarrassed than impressed I had won with 7-2!

Quite a while back in an ACR freeroll when we used to have them, I had AKo and got it AIPF against QQ and 76 suited. Flop was Q66, so AK was essentially worthless. However, turn was A and river was also A so all three of us wound up with full houses but I had the best one after having less than 1% chance to win post-flop.

The biggest hand I've ever lost was AA. My opponent went all-in with 5 and 7 and got a set of 5s. I was terribly disappointed by that experience. Poker has these things, especially online. You have to be very careful, because there are players who play like amateurs and think poker is a lottery.

I think my best hand was in an online tournament where I managed to get to the final table and win a prize of 125 dollars. Same thing a long time ago

I think I have Mr. Bounty on GG Poker for $15 and the three of us went all in. I had A10 and two opponents had A9 and J9 and I needed to win the main thing in A9 because he had a lot of chips and I covered them both with chips and A9 collects a flush with one card and knocks out $320 from this short.

The most annoying loss is when you lose all your chips at the beginning of the tournament.

I don't generally play massive stakes but I won a pot of perhaps £400 playing an Omaha cash game. I had aces, re-raised and they held up. That was years ago. I don't play live and don't play cash now.

biggest hand i won was at a live fund raiser where the betting was insane. I ended up with a straight flush over an ace high flush and made out like a bandit!

I have lost with quads against a royal flush and have won with a royal flush against quads, but I have been playing poker
for nearly 60 years so I must have had most hands possible in all that time. Had a good few Royal Flushes and many quads
in my time.

I caught AJS Royal Flush, but I just went all-in. One person accepted it, so I won a big win.
