What is the most $$ you've ever lost (and paid) in a single session gambling at pool?

That is, if you were once down $40 but worked back to $20 by the end of the session and paid $20, then it's $20.
 
Seven ahead for three thousand with $300 on the side. I was giving up the seven and the break on the barbox. Before this set, I had never played for more than three hundred. I went in the bathroom and threw up. I don't think the money would bother me, now. I was getting the money posted for me, though. I truely would rather lose my own than someone else's. This was early in my career. I was in my early twenties. I have bet it up (in my opinion, $100-1000) quite often since, so I think the money did have an effect on me. Now, "it's just a way to keep score."
 
on pool right

Gambling in general I've lost a lot more than playing pool. I selected what I've lost playing pool.
 
the most I've lost was 160.00 ( may or may not make me a nit :D )
it happened last Friday and I had the "crushed" feeling for about 3 hours afterward, but when i sew up the holes in my BR ( pissed away a bunch on horses and dogs too:o ) I think I'm gonna take another shot at him
 
I lost 2k gambling this guy once. He was a lot better than I thought. As it turns out, he let me keep the money in exchange for a rusty trombone.

It wasn't worth it.

i played an ahead set for my wife years ago,i dogged the 8 every time i shot:rolleyes: wonder how shes doing these days.........
 
A LOT

As in i have emptied out numerous times.

Although i have made BIG scores as well where the other guy did the same.

The action is the juice!

AAHHHH.
Memories of yesteryear.
 
Can you include more poll options......?

Let's say
and$25,000 to $49,999.00
and $50,000 to $99,000,00
ad $100,000 and up.

I won't mention any names but I am sure there will be a few that would fit into these categories.
 
Than God For Poker (I'm Losing Money Much Slower Now)

I'm just glad that you limited it to pool and not also Jai-Alai, dog racing, bar bets and HORSES.

( I could have lost MUCH more at pool if some of my horses Won ) :)


That should read Thank God...
 
I sure thought there would be a lot more $2K+ losers than what's up there. Does honesty count?
