One hundred whole dollars. Played texas hold'em at a casino in Canada when I was 18. $100 buy-in.

Sat down at the table, got dealt in, first hand was suited king queen, ended up with a flush, another guy at the table took me all in and it took me a loooong time to call. Soon as I hit that pot I started bullying the other players with my chip count. Then a guy came over and told me I had to move over to the higher-rollers table.

First hand I'm dealt there? suited ace king. What comes up on the flop? an ace and a king. I slow play the hand, whats the river? another king. I've got a full fucking boat, kings over aces. I go all-in. The only other guy playin calls. I flip mine over, proud. He flips his over, pocket aces. Dude had a full boat aces over kings. Sonofabitch. Left the table, sat outside, called my Dad.

c'est la vie. Haven't gambled since.
