    Most rewarding bet you have ever won?
    Doesn't necessarily have to be the biggest, although my most rewarding is one of my bigger monetary hits. But just a bet you placed that you won and won't ever forget.

    For me it has to be my Colts bet in last year's NFL playoffs. At the time it was the biggest bet I had ever placed and really shouldn't have placed it at the time. Game was a nightmare the first 3 and a half quarters as Chiefs did anything and everything to the Colts d. Somehow, through some miraculous course of events, Colts Managed WHAT Was THE biggest Come Back IN Playoff history I believe. After this won it's like I haven't looked back and have been able to sustain a great income gambling since, immediately after hitting 3 grand on the Saints and the points, something that might have been different if the game lost. Definitely my most memorable. Love hearing stories about guys winning so post um up when you have a minute.

    Arizona was on the road at Cal. Cal was....I think 11-0 at home.
    Very proud of this outright winner. As well as the parlay. I literally just looked at the betting screen and just started rattling off chalk teams then through

        Dallas when they beat Miami in the finals (NBA). 10k to win 17k +170

        Green Bay when they won the Super Bowl Future wager Week 17. Needed a win to get in playoffs. Risked 1100 to win 13.2k +1200

        Biggest wins of my life. And yes... I've had horrible and dumb wagers in my life.

          I would be really afraid to write on a ticket. Is there no rules against this? I would be afraid they would try to claim I altered it or something.

            Mine was waiting a year to be redeemed on a bet I made when the rematch came around. During the first cain/jds fight in the UFC, I knew cain would ragdoll him but when he entered the cage and started to move around I could tell he was injured.

            He got ko'd moments later. Then I had to wait a year and hear everyone say how JDS was better and all this other absurdity when it was obvious to me cain was injured. The rematch finally came and it wasn't even close, cain dominated as a nice underdog. Things got even better when they fought a third time, before the fight cain finally acknowledge his injury from the first fight and the line on the third matchup was only -200.

                  Wow great wagers. Remember That Dallas series and remember screaming through the house when Dallas won. Didn't have close to what you had on it but it was a great win!

                      I was in LV and ran into Iwin this same night.

                      Sad thing is this poor fukk lost 5X the cash he won here betting square ass plays like you see here. I tried to warn the dumb bastard to take his winnings and go...but he's simply not smart enough to get it.

                      It was a fukkin dumpster fire I tell you.

                      And this was the same night as his "most rewarding win". How very sad.

                                  Hit the Kentucky Derby when Mine That Bird one. 5 horse exacta box and I had the first three. For $60 more I could've hit the trifecta at $20k.

                                  Still felt badass hitting that.

                                                  pretty sure it was when i put $200 on Mercer +800 against duke and won $1600. i know i've laid a grand and won several times, and i think once or twice i even laid two grand, but pretty sure those lost. but $1600 i'm almost positive is my biggest win. which is so much than this clippers guy bets every day...haha...

                                                      When the Nuggets won @ Golden State towards the end of the regular season on a K. Faried shot with like .5 left. Nuggets were like +650 and had 9 players dress. That big Russian center went for like 24 pts and 26 boards. It closed out a 60 to 1 parlay for me.

                                                          oh it felt fantastic. i actually posted that play the night before so i got a lot of pats on the back here too which was fun. i was on tilt man. and i honestly never bet longshots on the moneyline, but i was down to my last $200 after a bad first day of the tournament and i just had a feeling. i've never jumped around my living room so much. i got lightheaded after jumping and screaming as hard as i could simultaneously down the stretch when they had that breakaway end-to-end inbounds pass over the defense for a layup, if you even remember that game. for a rather small bettor, that was the best day of my gambling life.

                                                              S.D Chargers ML @ Denver. Thursday night game, first or 2nd week of December. I tried to get a buddy on board with me and he wouldn't even take the 10 points. It dropped to 9.5 and he hopped on Denver.

                                                              Butler ML against Indiana in 2012. Seems like it was played in Indy but Butler was 9-11 pt dogs. Excellent game to watch and it went to overtime I believe. IU should have won but didnt deserve to.

                                                              Johnny Football-21(+350) 2nd half against Duke in the bowl game. I knew Johnny wasn't going out like that.

Pats and San Diego. Pats were playing the bills, and they were down by i believe 5 pts with just a couple mins left on the clock. Pats decided to kick it off instead of doing an onside kick, so if bills just got a couple first downs they won the game. Bills ended up fumbling the kick off, pats score a touchdown, take the lead and win the game. Still one of my craziest wins ever, not only because of how crazy the game ended but because of the meaning of it. after that,cashed out the entire 1200 and have never really messed with big parlays ever again
