Whats the most money you ever won?

kfallon

As the title says, what's the most money you've ever won in one go be it on a scratch card, the lotto, a bet, a sweepstake, a draw, cards, slot machines, bingo etc

For me it was about 6 years ago, won about €2,000 from a €60 bet (one €30 single and €15 e/w double on two nags)

Anyone on here struck it big time and actually won the Lotto :eek:

I won €20 on a slot machine about six years ago. The one armed bandit type. I couldn't believe it when the fuckin machine kept spitting out money. I'm glad to say I took my €20 and left. I can see how people get hooked on gambling awful easy.

How many more times do people have to say that in every thread before it gets annoying?

Yahew

Me ma won about €110M a few year back.

Kadongy

€750 from €10 on Greece each way at 50-1 for the European Cup the time they won it.

In the same week I earned 1400 I think it was from two jobs. I had been unemployed for several weeks before that, so it was nice.

I won £100 on a slot machine on the ferry to Holyhead.

I had 20p on me was waiting to play the Robocop arcade game so I put 10p in to get rid of it really.

The shock I got when I won the main jackpot and it spat out 100 pound coins!

I could barely keep my shorts up with the amount of shrapnel I had in the pockets.

I also found $400 on the floor of a Vegas casino but I didn't really "win" that :pac:

Would you mind me asking your screen name on PPP? Just curious as to whether you actually did or didn't win

Thats not true at all. If you were walking down the road and saw a wad of cash would you walk past it ignoring it, or would you pick it up?

keano_afc

IR£371 on a football accumulator. The last match on it was the Monday evening game, had an agonising wait for the game and then the winner came in the last minute. James Beattie, Southampton 1-0 West Ham. Was bloody delighted. Paddy Power refused to pay out then as they were trying to say that the "2" I wrote on the sheet for an away win was too much like a "1". Took me 3 days and much complaining to head office before they paid me.

karl tyrrell

Quite a bit but I wasn't paying, I was still on a staff tariff from a previous job *cough* that I held 3 years earlier *cough*

admiralofthefleet

i took €700 off a bookie in leopardstown a while ago in one bet

Radiotower

Won £900 in bookies picking 3 numbers from 6 on sat night lotto. First time I ever done it, hence picking from 6 numbers not 7. Went in to put 20p on it cos the guy I lived with was telling me about it (about 10year ago) but the bookie had wrote on the bottom of the slip "Minimun £2 Bet". Suppose I had the last laugh.. Have won a few times since but always picking out of 7 on less odds.
