My best is a mere $135 plus some change on a $3.30 buyin Deepstack, but considering I only play in the micro's for fun, mostly $1.10 buyin SnG's it's not bad for me. I've only been playing for 2 years so I have a lot to learn.
I will say my teachers are all right here in BRM and one friend who got me started and it's been a great passtime. Probably play more then I should if you was to ask my family, but it's winter time sports for me.

my best online was a while back on ftp (pre black friday) i won a tournament for 194 and change. thats online tho live my best win sadly was not a "poker" hand persay but a 3 card poker hand lol got 1600 for a str8 flush on a forty dollar pair or better bet. felt like king of the casino for all of five minutes as they stopped the table and had to call up to ok the 500 chips best live tournament results were getting knocked out in third of a 55 buy in all in pre AA both called cause both wanted to split top two lol and the other one is a funny one. i get down to final 5 of a 65 dollar KO tourny same place and top 5 get payed i found out later from a guy i was at ft with that they split four ways grrrrr
