I always wonder how it feel to become big winner in poker tournament i no play big tournament yet because no money to play in:( but i wonder how it feel when you do when big tournament.

I not talk about $100 $200 $500 i talk more like $10000 up how you feel only first time you win that money you feel same way now when you win that again or no?

Do you think more money needed to win to feel same way in long time or no? What i mean to say if you win $10000 one month but next month you win $1000 you feel different or same? to feel as happy when win $10000 you need to win same or more?

I not when $100:( so i not no how it feel to win but one day

I think there would be difference in feelings between winning 200$ and 10000$, but probably not that big how it seems like. Cause you know, 10000$ still isnt life changing money. But I cant imagine to win something like 500 000$ or 1 million. That certainly is life changing money, at least in my country :)

I won $1000 in cash and tournament games then went to casino Nd accidentally made a $100 roll on 00 and hit for $4000, took me a second to realize wtf happened but excitement was short lived as I thought I was on a "roll" and ended up with no "roll" to play with :(

Back when Fulltilt was allowing US players, I deposited $200 into my account. That night I won like 3rd place and won like $1800. The next day it was my birthday so I really didnt play much at all. Went out partying with my brother.The next morning I was so hung over I got home I booted up and seen Fulltilt had a $500 buyin to win seats to the wsop main event. So being hung over I registered for that tournament. There was like 400 people in the tournament and they gave away like 9 seats. I grinded down to the final table and pulled off a seat win. I was just stoked. I really think the bigger wins last alot longer than winning a couple of hundred bucks for sure.

Never win anything that big before but I've cashed in the most on live games and the feeling is good. Overall it's a good feeling if I walk out with more money that I went in with.

August,2014.At pokerstars there is a tournament that runs every night. $1.10 +R NL Hold em 20K Gtd. I made it to the first place and i won 4.800$.Well that feeling cannot be described unless you make it that big.It is sure awesome and great! But you need so much luck to get there.People were winning with lousy hands the whole time like 9 3 , 7 2 etc.So yeah luck plays a major role to make it that big no matter how good your poker skills are :D What i am trying to say is that i a am not the best player in the world and luck played its role for me to win that huge amount!

Winning big is definitely a good feeling. It's hard to explain, it's almost as if all your problems just fall off your shoulder. The next day, you feel as if money is no longer a problem, because you still live the same lifestyle, but now you don't have to worry whether your dinner costs $5 or $100.


The feeling you have with the amount you win definitely correlates with how much money you have in the bank. When I won my first $20k, I was on cloud nine because I basically had nothing. Fast forward a few months later and won $110k, my oh my what a feeling. I couldn't even comprehend it on the drive home.

Several months later, when I had a significant roll, I won $11k which felt like nothing. The win was great and all but I didn't have the same feeling as I did because a tournament series cost me near $6k.

So basically, the feeling you get on a win is dependent on how it affects your lifestyle. If it doesn't change, then the win is more about the title than the cash. On the other hand, if the win changes your livelihood, it's honestly one of the best feelings I've ever experienced

i have to drive 75 miles to play poker. i feel good if i leave the casino with more money than i walked in with. if i lose, it sure is a long drive home.

This is so true!

My casino is 90 miles away. Losing SUCKS with that drive, but winning is nice to think about coming home:cool:

Ill be going back there next friday for a tourney, and hoping to return Sunday for a piece of the pie

I have never won something big,but i think if i menage somehow to win that sum i will probably withdraw about 50% of it cuz i know that with so much money in the acc i will be tempted to sit on high cash game limits try to double or triple them (sounds like a gambler's stretegy also insane...but you have to know yourself :) )
And for the feeling,i think i will be so excited that i wouldn't afford to play in the next 24 hours cuz my heart will beat xtimes faster than normal :D

Never won as much as 10,000 but won $1,100 once and withdrew $1,000. Not that I was happy to the max but it was good exhilaration.
