won $3300 in a live $2-5 game. Met my friends at a club and started a tab for all my friends to drink on ($300?) Couple days later bought a GSXR 600 using the money as down payment. Couple days later, it was stolen.
Was up a ~$1400 in Vegas and gave my girl $300 to go shopping. She still talks about it to this day. I always kick her a little bit when I win. Makes me feel like a mini-baller and keeps her happy when I'm gone all night (and morning) playing cards.

i don't know dude but it doesnt seem right to kick your girlfriend when you win. I just make no sense to me
when i win live, i love buying a pack of smokes, some mary jane, skins, loads of muchies and a good few dvds. sit back and bake at a medium head for as long as possible
I've been to Vegas a bunch of times, but never 100% to play poker. Went this past Spring, brought my wife along since she's cool with my playing while she suns and shops etc. As an extra nice-nice, we got a great room at Mandalay (I usually go cheap) and I got her an all-day spa treatment/HE/whatever they do in there. The room for the time I was there was about $900 w/ room serv. etc, spa thing was $500+, plus other expenses.
brag: I paid all the bills in cash on my way out of town, and still left with $3700 more than I arrived with...my best-ever outing (was 3 days)
beat: I was so excited about this that I went back by myself in July and got my ass handed to me all week.

Ya dude, you are right.

In Vegas, just packing up to go back home after a decent session, up about $3K.
As i'm walking out the room, I found a $100 chip in my pocket. Said F*** it and as I'm walking through the casino (luggage in hand) I placed it on the single 0 on the Roulette wheel.
There was an annoying drunk A**hat on the table and he was all like, "that's a stupid bet, dealer hasn't hit 0 all day."
BOOM nailed the zero.
Cashed out $3500 and used the money to buy a GQ leather jacket and laptop (back when laptops cost an arm and a leg).
I went to the casino with some friends and we needed to stop to the gas station. I open my wallet to pay and notice that I only had 100$ bills (for a total of 200$ ldo). I felt balla asking the cashier if he accepted 100$ bills.
My buddy asked me if I wanted to go to Tunica. I said sure, let me win the money first. Played in a $20 180 man and took second while he was studying in the grad office. Then I said, "not enough, I need a grand." Then proceeded to win a $50 sng. Then took that grand and turned it into 7 grand by winning 2 out of 3 rebuy tournys at horseshoe. Took the extended family to Red Lobster to celebrate ($400+ tab).
Van broke down. No biggie. I'll just pay for it w/my poker winnings.
One weekend went to the local casino and just absolutely crushed 2/3 NL. Went down 7pm on a Friday night and stayed until about that time the next day for a $2100 win, slept on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon and crushed it the next night for another $1200 win. Got home, still had about $3600 in cash on me from winnings and additional cash. Decided when I got home to throw these $100 bills over me. Did it the first time, felt somewhat awesome and baller so thought I would do it again. Second time I did it I only picked up $3400 rather then $3600 but decided I didnt need to pick up that extra $200, I will find it later... Never did, think a flatmate may have got it...
BRAG: $100 note shower
BEAT: Australian dollars
FWIW I think Australian Hundos are far more aesthetically pleasing than American ones.
I once payed me and my friends whole weekend chilling on seaside. Story:
It was arround 6am in my porch we were completely wasted thinking how great this summer was and even how greater it would be if we could just drive to seaside to finish vacations in style and then proceed with real life. The only problem was we were all out of cash - at least out of amount we spend when we decide to get hammered. I had arround 6k in my poker account for nl100 grinding and was usually at least at that time really tradiconal about BR management and withdrawing and so...i made a preposition to sit at nl1k table double up withdraw and just go. As my friends understand the whole poker thing pretty well they were arguing i will regret it blabla but obviusly it didn't take long when I sat tight and wait the cards to be dealt. Heads up. Blind stealing for a few hand and then i got 97s raised and the flop came T8J rainbow. I check raised allin. villain had JJ. It held. I insta withdrew to moneybookers sent a message to my sis that i'll need 1k in the morning. we smoked a giant joint split packed and drove to the south next day like a ****ing 16th years old kids first time going somewhere without parents. Felt great will never regrest and will repeat. Also - boomswitch after! Good life!
