whats the most you ever been aired for?

In recent memory, $40 from a guy named Juan. We played some cheap sets... afterwards he goes to the ATM and says his girlfriend must have pulled out what was left. He said to meet him the next day... but he never showed up.

I don't gamble much though... and when I do, I'm usually the underdog... good practice though.
 
I won $1600 from an asian guy but only collected $300. This was when I first started gambling and didn't know the benefit of "posting."
 
I played a guy last week and beat him out of 100. He was crying and moaning that he lost for a good 15 mins before he started to pull any kind of money. He said a mutual friend of ours owed him 50 and he would give it to me this week b/c he only had 50 on him. That's the only time that I've really gotten aired.
 
If someones gambling habit is so bad they will play for money they don't have, it's time for an adjustment. Johnnyt
 
830$. Back when I was young and even dumber than I am now. I beat a guy. He wrote me a check. I cash it. We play again. Another check. I loan him cash. Checks come back as canceled. I pay back the cash along with fees. I'm busted, disgusted and angry. I always claimed I would kick his ass if I ever saw him again until I saw him walking in the rain, mid February, with shorts no shirt and a trench coat. I figured I was doing a lot better than he was.
 
Last week:
Daniel Rutledge - aired me for $100 (he has paid me check for $600 before and $280 cash another time), but once a b%$#@ always a b%$#@

Online:
pooldawg1, aka Jeff Holloway - aired me for $50

Most:
Jason ????? - won $3800 but only got paid $600. Had we won another $1200 would have gotten a really nice car

Yeah, just ask Chris Bartrum. He won't play or bet with ANYONE unless you post...

did that kent guy ever settle up with you?
 
I got aired for 2600.00 back in 1975. Actually got paid 2600.00 by the player but aired by the side better. I might could have collected but, about 2 weeks later the guy got arrested and did quite a bit of time in prison. I was rather young at the time and this was a valuable lesson. Its never happened to me again.
 
$80k

Played a guy knowing we were both playing on air but I had a business for sale that would have covered my loss and he did a major deal about once every six months so I knew he would be able to cover his end in a few months. I had dropped by his apartment a few months before and seen his kitchen table covered in medium sized bills 6-10 inches deep before he closed a door. Second hand info was that it was well over $200K on the table so I knew the size of his poke after a deal.

I won, danged Fed's ran him out of town about a month later, never saw him again. It's been twenty-five years, I'm beginning to suspect I was air barreled.
