Having the absolute nuts, on the river, on the button, in a multi-way pot, in a deep sacked cash game and lots of raises/re-raises going on before your turn to act.

But at the same time you're saying to yourself repeatedly "please don't dis-connect, please don't dis-connect, please don't dis-connect"

Winning an MTT is the ultimate poker high for me.

It's not about the money, the feeling you get when you beat the whole field and own all their chips is fantastic.

After my first ever MTT win (a 997 runner freeroll on Sky) I was walking on air for days. At the time I only played on micro-stakes DYM tables.

Winning a live MTT for 500000 and Demi Moore eyeing up my big stack, doesn't happen all that often which makes it all the more sweet when it does.

isn't this post missing a quad based rubdown?

Wacko90

stacking gerrard is a pretty nice feeling! Though your ak losing to tikays k5 on the final table of an mtt isnt a great one!

ChirpyChip

Ok... it's defo turning quad jacks, only to find out that gives somebody else a gutshot Royal Flush ... I love that feeling it gives me

ChirpyChip

Or then again it could be watching Beaneh flop the nuts with Broadway and get beat by a rivered FH! Jus a thought....... :')

This, and it doesn't happen very often.

If you wanted to make it more specific - 

being chip leader in a WSOP event, not having enough space in front of you to keep your cards behind the line, and having to get the TD to help you move your chips when the table got broken - this is probably never going to happen again, but at least I've had that high once

the best run ive ever had, has to simply be, when grinding through a tournament and finding yourself on the final table, when youve not had a single showdown, and knowing youve not had the best hand once.
