    Largest wager I have placed was AZ Cards under 8.5 wins (risk 10K) back in the late 90's. Dropped it down in Las Vegas. it won. Biggest wager on a single event was 6K with a local on Chicago over Edmonton for a playoff hockey game back in day. It lost. Now I mostly wager with bet points. for sports. Those days of big wagers are in the past.

    On Thanksgiving 2019. I had $3 bux on my
    draftkings NFL turkey round up $880 k pot. Came in 3rd. Won $25 k. .last week on a dollar showdown draftkings NFL Seattle vs Philly. In the 4th quarter i got within 1.2 fantasy points of first place $1500. I ended up winning 7 bux. But if Seattle offense had kept trying the last 10 mins idda done ok. I believe this is the better approach. But i still wager sports daily of course.

    Mad respect to the guys who are honest about it, to those thowing numbers out that they “won”, not surprising they’re the ones who always end up “winning” somehow, lmao

    I've got $12K riding right now at BetJamaica that says Rudy and Firedawg are the same poster. Starting to feel pretty good about it.

    Back in the late '90's, put about 7k on a piddling T-Wolves-Pistons game with English Sports Betting. They even jacked the line up a point, right there over the phone. I was young and stupid, didn't care. It lost by a few points, but it was ESB so the likelihood of getting paid anyway was pretty slim.

    1970's. Net worth probably 8k. 3300/3000 on some obscure ncaafb game colorado against ?? something. Kicked fg in final minute/sec to cover. Back then it took hours/days to get results. Had BIG balls back then, now worried if i lose 200. Don't get old. LOL

    4000 bucks on the Giants SB win over the Patriots in 2007 (Jan 2008)
    The Tyree helmet catch game.
    Put my year end profit sharing check on the line there.


    Had the G-Men +12, still kicking myself for not hitting the money line as well.
    I called my local "Buzzy" asked him "Buzz, what's the Giants"?
    He told me +12 (which I knew he juiced because most books were offering 13 and 13.5)
    I said "give me New York, 4 dimes" he just let out a big sigh, I knew right there he was getting hammered with NYG bets.

    He paid me the following Tuesday that's all the counts.
