Default Your Gross Loss (Or Profit) in BJ - Lifetime

Also post the hand where you had the most $$$ riding. I'm talking about BJ live and online not just Party Poker.

Loss: -4kish before bonuses and such.

Hand: $50 on two spots. Split 3 times and double down a few for $450 total. Ended up $50 I think.

I had managed to grind my bankroll up to 4500 dollars from 1000 playing 3/6 live this year, then I went to Reno for the Hilton poker challenge. I got there and made the money in a SnG. After, I went and met my friend at the PaiGow table. I sat down and started knocking back free drinks and getting trashed. Eventually ended up at blackjack. I then lost 2400 in 4 hours. I just didn't feel like playing poker after that. I spent the next 3 days in the pit trying to get even. I ended up losing another 2500, and didn't even play any sattelites or enter any tournaments. Blackjack is the devil's game. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

+50k....

I played ~ 2000 hours casino BJ over a couple years, mostly at Turning Stone. I got backed off in March of '99 and they opened up the poker room a couple months later. I then dropped about 15k before I picked up a 2p2 book.

You think poker is a grind? I never want to see another hand of BJ again for the rest of my life, sober at least.

Best,

zooey

Win/Loss- I've played so much that I have no idea. If I had to venture a guess, I'd say I'm about even.

Most money won/lost in a hand (although I'm sure I've won this much as well but just don't remember it):

$30,000-

I distinctly remember splitting 9's against a 5 after I had placed a $6,000 wager. I re-split after receiving a third 9, doubled down after receiving a 2, and doubled down on my third hand after receiving another 2. After making all of my hits, splits, and doubles, I had $30,000 riding on three hands of 20, 19, and 19. The dealer turned over her hold card which was a six for eleven, then drew an ace from the shoe for twelve, and then a nine of all cards for twenty-one.
