Most you've won

TheInquisitor

Screw thinkin about the bad times , lets think about the good times. First time i played in a poker tournament at college i won it and about E300 along with a ticket to another tournament!

Not that much in the scheme of things but memories!

Whats the most people have won?

20 Times 20 Times

I won 4000 blackjack at 4.13 am :-)

Devastator

My biggest win(odds) was 106/1 on the LDV Vans trophy few years ago, think it was 7 or 8 team acc :eek:

Boxfresh

The most I won was €1500 on a €40 freezeout poker tournament

mike65

Can't remember but my biggest return on stake was 150/1, 4 Champions League quater final games to draw I said - God knows why. Sadly I only had the one euro on it.

Warper

Won 18k winning the Cavan Open last year (poker) and around 10k on Barcelona winning the CL this year

qc3

Pindar trained by Barney Curley winning at Wolverhampton a few years ago. A tidy sum

Cremated

Guess there is two big one's for me,

had like 1 or 2 Euro left on my Bet365 account late last year,

and before I went out I just threw it all on a mad 12 team accumulator,

featured teams like Madrid (-1) and over 17 corners in some Argentinian league game, and some other team to get the most corners and really silly things,

and when I came home I had just over 11/1200 in my account, couldn't believe it came in, must have been 500/1 or so,

but another big one was a couple of months prior to that, I had a 5 Euro accumulator in Boyles, predicted all the correct results of the Premiership games that weekend,

and at half time none were really coming in, so I thought it was over, so later that night I checked the net and flicking through the results I was quite shocked, until I seen the last result I needed was Man City at home, and the page loaded and City won 1-0, with a goal in the 94th minute,

Stephen Ireland with a cracker I heard, go on STEVIE! ,

made just under 1k on it...

Headshot

400 euro

Won it with benni scoring the winner against fulham i think , i put 20 euro on him

UnitedIrishman

Put €20 on Egypt to win the African Nations cup at either 25/1 or 33/1 on Betfair two years ago.

Couldn't understand why they were so high after them winning the one before but was going to lay them off when they reached the latter stages anyways.

Ended up being away until the final and decided to just leave them be at that stage and luckily it came in.

jkmanc1974

Backed Like A Shot to win the 2003 Irish Dog Derby years ago at all prices, picked up a fair few quid for that!!

applehunter

Definately the most memorable when Vintage Tipple won the irish Oaks in 2003.:cool:

In terms of monetary value its up there.

Won much more playing poker but not as fun.:)

gary nevillevil

Had 25e on a 7 team accum on a champions league night - won just over 689euros

fonda

Had a euro e/w on Glover @175/1 and then a fiver e/w on Mickelson (cant remember the odds)
1st & 2nd place in a major is good goin I reckon

ecoli

Had 5 e on a 10 way accum 728e including 2 goals in injury time by shels to win 2-1 which was the last team i was waiting to come in

Trafford Lad

I had €20 on 11 teams in the 1st round of the World Cup back in 2006...absolutely crazy in hindsight and I'd never dream of more than 6 or 7 in an accum now, but it came off and I won around €1,200, I remember the last game I was waiting on was for the Ukraine to win and Shevchenko scored a penalty to win it.

soundsham

Got wind of Trappatoni becoming the new Irish manager through an Austrian Friend of my fathers, he was 25/1 at the time but the man was certain Giovanni wouldn't be renewing his contract in Austria with Red Bull Salzburg and had heard that Trapp had been in touch with people in the FAI (Liam Brady I'd assume?)

600 quid on that, went half and half with the father! Nice collection from mister powers the day he was appointed! Happy out!

They must have had a v. strong book at that stage.

3 weeks before he was actually appointed, his price plummeted from 150/1 to 25/1 into 8/13 in about 1 week, bookies got taken for a nice bit! Stick to my poker these days!

MichaelH24

Had a few very nice wins. 500 on Schelm at 11/2 to win his novice chase.
150 win double with Buckland Gold (13/2) and Titus Andronicus (3/1) in Sedgefield.

thirstywork

Master Billy Boy 66-1 50 pound e-w and he romped home.

jimbling

Biggest odds I ever won with was a horse at 200-1.... what was hilarious was it was only a 6way race. Not even sure what happened, everyone else must have fallen or something.
Only had €1 e/w on it but great stuff for just gambling while bored at work.

Biggest individual cash win was $7.5k for a $20 freezout.

IrishIrish

Biggest win was some poker tourny for $50, won it and got $12,000. Had come second in it a few weeks before and got $8,000. Think they were $35,000 or $50,000 gaurenteed prize pool.

Not many big winners when betting. Milon Baros to be top goal scorer in the euro's that time was about it. Think I got him at about 66/1.

ChocolateSauce

I bet 380 euro on 5/2 odds that Lisbon would fail (even though I voted yes). I was disappointed about the result, but had a nice lump of cash to soften the blow :pac:

Mr Benevolent

€990 on a 33/1 horsie. God knows how that happened.
