Grade 12, first time ever playing in a poker game, 4-handed in my basement, dealer's choice. About an hour and five $10 buyins later, dealer calls no limit omaha hi/low and explains the rules. I river A-5 diamonds for the best high and low, lead for most of my stack, and get raised 'allin' ... but I have an unbeatable hand so I run upstairs to grab another $20 from my kid brother, but he won't lend it to me. So I borrow/steal a twenty from my dad's wallet, run back downstairs, reraise and he calls. Ship it.

The very first tournament I ever played in (live or online) was a Foxwoods $50+$15 200 player MTT. I took down 3rd for $900ish. Then I raced home just in time to watch the Pats win their first Super Bowl and also won $250 on my squares.

Being broke after my first foray into online poker I signed up for RoyalVegas cuz they give you $10 for free. I took that $10 and ran it up to $1000+ within a week after destroying the $2 HU SnG's and then placing 3rd and 1st in 400 player $3 tournies back to back nights.

15 months ago I was broke (again lol). A friend of mine gave me $20 to enter a 7person live winner take all SnG. I won for net $120. I put $100 into Party Poker the next morning and put $50 on a .5/$1nl table and $50 on another. I then ran proceeded to run that borrowed twenty bucks into a couple of thousand in a week and ~$175,000 by years' end.

The important question here is, did you ever pay back the $20 you borrowed? hehehe

playin 10/20 NL on party while a good friend of mine (2p2 lurker) watches.

I make it 75 to go in the CO with 88, teacuppoker calls from the sb. Flop 467 r, check, pot, call.

turn either T or J, check check.

river 2, he checks, I'm about to bet and my friend says "OMG don't bet, all you are going to do is let him move you off the best hand!!"

I reply, "well I know I have the best hand, I'm gonna call fast if he moves in."

So he checks, i bet 400 or so, he pushes for 1300 more or so, I instacall. The pot gets shipped my way, and we don't see what he has (on party they often just show the winning hand somehow). My friend is like "wtf??? what the hell could he have had?!"

I say, "I dunno, 56s?"

Friend says "If he had [censored] 56s, I'm quiting poker forever"

We look at the hand history (this is before i got pokerace)..... and of course, 5c 6c. Me and friend go nuts.
