What's your best/luckiest win ever?

Fiasco · 05-07-10, 07:01 PM

Probably last nights dodgers game. I had the over

RealSlimShady · 05-07-10, 07:07 PM

I think mine was a St Louis baseball game some years back. Game was 1-1 when it went into extra innings and I won my over 9.5 bet!

If you bet a lot of games there probably is no such thing as your luckiest win because there are probably tons and you seen all the scenarios possible to win a bet.

That's ridiculous

Summer of 08. I remember it like yesterday

Had 2.5K on the Blue Jays at home against the Mariners. Game is tied and goes to Extra Innings. Mariners score 1 run in the Top of the inning. Blue Jays come up and get 2 men on base then 2 quick outs and are down to their last man with 2 ON! I am sweating my ass off as this was one of my Top 5 biggest bets. I think it was Inglett who was At Bat and hits a fly ball straight to right field where Ichiro is standing. I take my eyes off the television, head is in my hands as I start to weep, knowing that that's the game. Then I suddenly hear "MISPLAY BY ICHIRO!!" i look up and see Ichiro running back for the missed ball as the two Blue Jays on base run past home plate! IT WAS THE GREATEST WIN OF MY LIFE. IT WAS BIG MONEY, AND I WON IT IN AN AMAZING FASHION!

Colts came back down by 21 on monday night football damn near a decade ago against the bucs and my buddy made a straight up bet with me and was so pissed and didnt wanna pay till I had to go to semi extreme measures. F**ker ducked me for over 3 months and was blowing every penny he made, well on blow, quite frankly. I dont look down on cokeheads as long as they pay their debts first. After that, do what the f**k you want with your coins.

rm18 · 05-07-10, 07:30 PM

I had Michigan +11.5 for first half., they were down 21 to Kansas the best team in the country on the road with like 2 minutes left in the half and come back and were down by 11 at the half.

Sunde91 · 05-07-10, 07:32 PM

Masu, that's crazy. Like mine, that is game over 999 times out of 1000.

** Picks, who is that in your avatar?

rm18 · 05-07-10, 07:32 PM

Also had Baron Davis and some guy from Clemson I think Potter hit half court shots at the buzzer to cover first half lines.

poker_dummy101 · 05-07-10, 07:49 PM

Some smokin hot broad with tremendous cans. Dont know her name. Sorry.

UntilTheNDofTimE · 05-07-10, 07:54 PM

Not my best but def luckyest,

About 3-4 years ago i took yankees -2.5 vs the angels. Yankees were at home and the score was tied bottom 9. Posada hit a 3 run walk off HR

RealSlimShady · 05-07-10, 08:01 PM

I know the unluckiest loss(which I fortunately didnt have, but saw the game) would have to be the college football OT game where the dog was getting about 11-12 points. The favorite scored a TD on its possession and the QB for the underdog threw a pick 6 to lose the game and not cover the spread. This was about 10 years ago......

I think I had another game where A Rod hit a grand slam with 2 outs in the bottom of an extra innings game to get me the over(I believe it was 9 or 9.5). Final score was 7-3.

keyboarding · 05-07-10, 08:52 PM

That LAD RL hitting after blowing the 2 run lead in the 9th is up there.

I had the Dbacks that game...

The one that comes to mind is Jazz over Cavs this year, Gaines hits the game winning 3

HenPrivilege · 05-07-10, 10:44 PM

Not ever, but today, Mets -1.5

ngates815 · 05-07-10, 10:59 PM

Don't recall my luckiest...

Unluckiest. Had a 8 teamer for 50 bucks that paid out 3700. Lost it on the Fresno St vs Illinois football game this past fall. Last play of game TD by Fresno and they go for 2 and the win. Throw the pass on the 2pt conversion, hits off both the DB and the receiver, bounces back toward the line of scrimmage and a lineman catches it, and plows thru 2 people and Fresno wins. I was going crazy. The announcers kept saying that if it hit the receiver first and a lineman caught it, that it didn't count. but apparently that wasn't the rule.

ThaTopMoron · 05-09-10, 02:33 AM

im a rookie so this just happened in the LA vs OKC series...game 6 at OKC

i have 2k on the Lakers ML to win 1,600...last seconds down 1 Kobe misses his shot and Gasol snuck in and threw it in for the win with .5 seconds left! i went completely nuts.

a close 2nd is the Cavs Celtics game 1, I had Cavs for the +7 and the Cavs were up 5 in the last seconds and LeBron was left open and he nailed a 3 final score 101 - 93 Cavs cover!!! but that was only for $200

virus450 · 05-09-10, 02:36 AM

no luck

Cuse0323 · 05-09-10, 02:36 AM

Probably the same as yours, Sunde. Had a grand on the Dodgers and thought it was long gone, but that error saved the day.

eidolon · 05-09-10, 04:12 AM

trifecta on the kentucky derby

Domestic · 05-09-10, 05:40 AM

Accidentally placed a 3k wager on Lakers to win the Western Conference last year (Long story). Ended up winning, thank goodness.

kazuc · 05-09-10, 06:18 AM

For me it was some miracle Kansas OT victory in the 1980's. All I can remember about it was tearing up my ticket in a Vegas hotel room, since there was no chance Kansas could cover. But somehow they came back at the very end, and ended up covering in OT. This might have been when Manning was a freshman...

Patrick McIrish · 05-09-10, 06:29 AM

Lucky wins? No such thing for gamblers. When we win it's skill, when we lose it's bad luck. We're always on the right side, only time luck comes into play is when it's bad.
