Q: Most I've won in a day?

Anyways I have AJ about 250bb deep or so(he has like 400bb+), I don't remember specific bet sizes and stuff but it was something like this. He raises somewhere I call. Flop J83 rainbow. He bets I raise, he 3bet, I go allin, he calls. Remember we're like 250bb+ deep here but I know 100% im good and feel really good. turn 4 river 6. he flips 75. I'm like ship the moneeeeeey(was a lot for me back then), but the cash goes his way? wtf? ....
