    Biggest bet you ever made?
    Mine was an NFC playoff game this year, NYG at TB. Was on G-men for $2100 to win over 3k and i hit it! i won over 10k this year in NFL playoffs.

    My biggest loss was in soccer, took shitty Feyenoord Rotterdam in soccer two years ago, $1500 to win $300, they were a 1.20 quote at home and were 12-1-0 at home vs Den Haag who was 0-1-11 on road.

    Den Haag won 0-2. I Couldnt beleive it.

              $13k on Spurs vs. Hornets game 7. No way were the Spurs going to lose to bunch of upstart punks.

              $5k on Giants SB last year.... $5k on Steelers SB few years ago. Just rode these two throughout the playoffs and made tons.

                  Gold, you are the only honest one on the forums. Everyone else coming in saying "Oh yea, I won my 6 biggest bets all for 15k"

                        I only make 80K a year (gross income) in my day job so I don't have the coin for 10 dime bets.

                        I bet a nickel on the Cardinals once and they lost.

                        That's my biggest wager.


                        <-------Lame but honest.

                        I have won a dime in a poker session before a few times.

                                    my biggest bet ended up being a blackjack hand at caesars 3yrs ago at my bachelor party........65k ......i was on fire and caught a run and won 14/15 straight hands and pretty much went all in on my 15th hand and caught a 10 with the dealer showing a bust card ( 5 ) ...i had no money left to double down and my buddis around the table ended up combining to put down about 28k of their own money to double down for less....after nearly 5min to figure all that dealer threw down a 9 for me to make 19
                                    ....then dealer pulls over another 5 for her to make 10 then a 2 and then a 7 for a big fat PUSH......never felt a sicker moment

                                    i ended up not playing next hand
                                    just walked away from table
                                    i couldnt bear to watch what if

                                        Around $500 a couple of times in the nfl last year before I knew a f*cking thing about handicapping...lost them both just like the majority of the games I played.

                                            Rutgers -2.5 two seasons ago @ south florida... Rutgers was handling them all game. Had it locked up... South Fla drives down the field for the final minutes. Gets 4th and goal pass interference call in the endzone. Horrendous call. (down by 8) Get a TD... Go for two, miss... RU wins by 2...

                                            it was close to 10k, maybe 9500... Worst night of my life , i'll never forget it!

                                            half a point. because of this game. I never give points less then 3 just take the ML... Not worth the heart break

                                              this is one of the biggest i had too.

                                              I guess I have bet 5 duguts in huge favorte ML's but do not consider that really, had NC ML in the first round for my whole balance.

                                                    £600 (or $1200) on Germany +0.5 against Turkey in that Semi Final. It wasn't even great value, but I thought it was free money. Damn Turks made me sweat for it.

                                                        Dollar is that bad, it has been for about a year now

                                                        £1 = $1.99 right now

                                                        or more precisely, 1 GBP = 1.99403 USD
