      Madison, I'll pleasure The Giant on film for just 3 million. That should be well worth it.

        $4,000 on heat to win the finals last year. Placed it after they lost game 1. Paid back around $6,000.

            Won a poker tournament on sportsbook.com for like 3 grand and had a roll of about 5 grand in college on there a few years ago, mostly from lucky parlays and the poker tournament....This was all off of a 100 dollar deposit

            Got hammered one night and woke up the next day to find about a grand missing (I think it was like 900 something)......I checked pending wagers and there was one made at like 3 in the morning the night before for no reason on the Cowboys ML against the Ravens on a Saturday night game late in the season.....I Just said fukk it and let it roll.....

            They lost

            Ended up cashing out about 3-4 grand which was big for a college student and played with house money for a year or so online, so it wasn't all bad

            I have a lot more money now but actually have to pay for shit on my own so I wouldn't think about betting that much these days......I just enjoy the action and push big a few times a year

              Not that I ran it up from poker, but same sort of thing with me (except I'm still in those college years)

              Ran a $300 deposit up to like 10k last year, then loved ECU in some football game. By the time game kicked, I probably had 3k on them between 1st half, 1st quarter, alternate spreads, ML, ATS, first to score and whatever else I could find. Then put roughly another 2k on them in the 2nd half, 3rd/4th quarter etc.

              I think they covered one bet I made an netted me about $250 while losing the 4.5k I had riding on that game. Happy to say I think I learned from that mistake.

                  Damn man.....atleast it was kinda like house money so you don't feel the hit as much

                  I don't even like betting big to be honest, too stressful......I just enjoy small-ish action as a hobby and will push alot if I'm on a heater and/or the stars align for a play I really like

                    $8000 on nfl football......and it was a third quarter bet. . under 7. Lost with 6 seconds left on a 60 yard touchdown pass.

                    I still get very very sick thinking back to it.
