What's the most money you've ever won or lost in a single poker session and did it change how you approach the game?
Like, did a big win make you more reckless thinking you're on a hot streak, or did a massive loss teach you to be more careful with bankroll management? I'm curious if those extreme sessions actually affect your strategy long-term or if you just chalk it up to variance and keep playing the same way.

Most recently, I won four thousand dollars.And a poker tournament, but as far as cash games go, depending on how long the session was, I won quite a few times one time over a twelve hour session.I managed to profit around fifty six hundred and another time within only a three hour session.I was able to profit three k
 
I always play with a set amount and I never go above it. As of now that is $25. Since I have placed limitation, I don't lose more than $25. As far as winning is concern, I also stop at some point when I start winning. Maximum I have won is about $40.
 
My biggest tournament win was in an online MTT on PokerStars for $750, finishing 1st out of about 3,900 players in a $1 buy-in. My second-biggest tournament win was on ACR for $732.

I don’t play enough tournaments with large fields or higher buy-ins to give myself more frequent shots at bigger scores.

I don’t play cash games anymore, but I’m profitable life-time. No big wins to report.
 
The biggest win/loss story is where the real character is. I once won big, felt like king, the next day I entered game with overconfidence. I lost almost everything back. Since then, I don't let one good or bad session change my mindset.
 
I once make $100 in cash game. I don't think I have won more than that in any casino game including poker.
 
I once won about $200 while playing in a casino
