Most Money Ever Lost In Poker

Posted By admin On 25/03/22

Remember last year during the World Series of Poker main event when this guy’s reaction made us think he’d lost the saddest poker hand ever? Erase that from your memory.

It was a good lesson to learn as a kid. When I had just started secondary school my family didn't have much money and were scraping to pay the bills and early on in term my Mum gave me a tenner so that I could get stuff from the school tuck shop, that should have lasted me a couple of weeks, but I had a bet on something with another kid, lost, and he gleefully took it straight off me. People always talk about their biggest jackpot or win. Whats your biggest loss,go ahead i dare you. By the way my biggest single loss and this is not the norm so dont get the wrong ideal,was 7000 in 4 hours on a 20 dollar machine,lesson learned. From what I remember the most i have lost in day is some where right around 500. You need to stop playing online poker. I have played online poker for many years and only 9 percent of all people who play see a profit the others are losing players. If you stick around long enough and keep playing it goes to everyone is a losing player.

This hand right here — from the WSOP Big One for One Drop, which aired Tuesday night on ESPN — is without a doubt the worst bad beat in the history of poker.

25-year-old Fedor Holz is, indeed, one of the best poker players in history. During 2016 and 2017 seasons Holz had one of the sickest runs ever, winning $21 million during this short span. Most recently, Holz finished in 2 nd place behind Justin Bonomo in the 2018 WSOP $1 million Big One for One Drop, taking home the hefty $6 million. That look you get when you realize $1 million was just flushed away on an awful beat. Longtime ESPN poker commentator Lon McEachern called Drinan losing to an improbable flush “the worst beat in.

Let’s start with this crazy fact: These guys paid $1 million(!) to play in a poker tournament, the only tournament of its kind with $15,306,688 to the winner (let that sink in for a moment).

Both Connor Drinan and Cary Katz picked up pocket aces, and after some pre-flop raises and acting that included an ominous message from Katz, they naturally got their money all in, but only Drinan was at risk of being eliminated. But, c’mon, what’s the worst that could happen when they’re an identical 2% to win a pot they split 98% of the time?

Only this:

Aces vs. aces. No big deal?

That look you get when you know you can’t lose.

Flush draw. No, this isn’t happening …


This guy can’t believe it either!

Oh, and that ominous message from Katz to Drinan before the flop? “Save your money, kid. You can’t win every pot.”

Drinan was knocked out in 18th place and out of the money.
