Posted by Phisix: Wow some of you have had some amazing wins making me very jealous, especially Icequeen and Mies. I have some catching up to do! What the hell have you spent winnings that big on?
Actually that's a funny story (to me).
My best mate was getting married, in san fransisco. I was taking a loan out to go and my parents/auntie where going too.
The wedding was called off, my family decided to still go but I couldn't warrant taking a loan out for a holiday.
I was doing quite well at poker so told them I would put winnings into a separate account and if I won £2500 before they went, I would come with em. That night I had the win, which when exchanged came to £2500
