I was playing in a play money game at pokerroom.. on a 100-200NL table... as you cann create tables at pokerroom..with the max play-mone buy-in being 10,000 play chips..a man decided to create a 10,000 pre-flop ante table. You have to bet 10k preflop or fold! ...(as table owner you can boot people who don\'t bide by the rules.)..anyway i got well into this game and of course 10,000 play chips ante dwindled away quickly into my 133,000 stack...but i bult up to $2.3million play chips on 1 table...but then i ran into a player called \'felon\' a pokerroom legend....he had just over 5 million chips on the table... HERES THE BAD BEAT PART: Preflop- i bet 10k (10k is the minmum, not max)...excitedly with pp aces...felon re-raised to about 60k.. i remember just calling hoping to trap him on the flop... the flop amazingly came: A, 6, 6 I bet overbet the bet $150,000 aking him think i was trying to steal..but amazinlgy he re-raised to about $500,00...and i responded by going all in with my 2.3million in total..he quickly called... the next 2 cards were rags- the pot was about $4.5million....i showed my hand- a house of aces over 6s...he shoed four of a kind- 6s!!! i nearly died... you may say it was only play money but for 2 million play money player on pokerroom.com there is a top list called \'the top 100\' for the top 100 play money playerson pokerroom..at the time to get on the list you had yto have 3.5million- i was about #189 at the time...and you go down in pokerroom.com history if you make that list...i was so damn close but yet so far.. as time has gone by we have seen the invention of the 25k preflop, the 35k preflop, 1-3k preflop and even the all-in fold tables...the top 100 is a tall task to get on to nowadays as standards have improved....you have to get roughly $11,000,000...there is also a top 50 weekly player list on who has profited the most in the week...the winner of eah week goes into the hall of champios...i have been close once by coming 4th for the week.....
