    Online:
    €15,126.80 return on a €10 acca on Gillingham, Rochdale, Wycombe, Plymouth, Blackpool, Bury, Colchester and Oxford! September 2015.

    Shop:
    €1,380 return for a €6 reverse tricast on Cheltenham Friday 2017. A drunken late bet on (I think) the second last race on whatever the late meeting was in the UK that day. Clawed back my losses for the week :)

    If I'd won the €15k in the shop, how would they have paid me? It would hardly be in cash, would it? And if paying by cheque, would they look for ID etc?

    I won €9k on a €10 bet once. Managed to get the much tried PL 10 game accumulator bet. Nobody else I know has managed to get it. Mind you I have probably lost most of that win since trying similar type long odds bets.

    Once I won £500 in live betting on Redbet. I've checked reviews about Redbet on https://www.bookmakeradvisor.com/uk/bonus/redbet/, as it turned out it offers all the sports markets to bet on with many other gambling options so I decided to give it a try. Now I'm a big fan of sports betting. It was so exciting, I've never won before.

    Ah, no worries!

    I did win 10,000 cash from a credit union drawn which I was a member during my college days... my account was so old they didn't even have a phone number for me...

    Posted a letter of congratulations to my (parents address) asking me get in touch. Worked out I has been in the draw for 4 years at 52 euro per year so I guess 208 euro returned 10g.

    Uruguay v Ghana in the world cup. I had lost well over 1,000 already during the tournament. And I went chasing it. Ended up recovering a few hundred.
    But anyway next it was a treble with 900 on it and the last part of it was Uruguay to qualify and I watched it with a few people who knew about the bet, it was the one where Suarez handled a shot and then ghana had a missed peno and then a shootout.
    I won 1800 but I remember shaking like a leaf during the shootout and making a tit of myself after celebrating.
    I said never again but ended up throwing another 500 on Spain to win the tournament which they did.
    And then 200 went on Nadal winning Wimbledon, even though my tennis knowledge wouldn't be great.
    By this stage I thought I was fairly smart.
    So Dublin played someone in hurling, think it was Tipp. Anyway, I got brave and put 700 on a Tipp +6 score. (maybe it was +5 or +7 I dont remember)
    I was cocky and told herself she could keep the winnings.
    We watched the game together, Dublin played really well and in the end if it was a +6 bet then it was a +6 result or whatever, but either way I lost the 700 by a point.

    That was me done. Lobbed 200 on Coutinho to stay at Liverpool and got it at 3/2 (which he did in that window) but never bet again.

    I have a sort of "I'm a genius" streak about me with football so I'm best staying away from it. If you think you can beat a load of fairly mean maths wizards then you're an idiot imo.
    Even last week Man Utd (Im a Liverpool fan) seemed a great bet at 9/4 at old trafford. But the draw is always huge in these games.

    Man City to win domestic treble and Barca to win champs league. Big odds and not a bad shout.

    People often wonder why lotto winners turn up for work again the next day, but I think it makes sense in this instance. Do nothing rash and just let the fact you're a lottery winner sink in for a while.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,069 ✭✭✭ebbsy


    €6,000 on the 49s last year. Did it 3 times in the last 18 months in fact. €2 euro bet for lunch and tea 7 number draw every day.

    Does anyone know, or ever heard, of someone who missed out on the top PLUS prizes by choosing not to purchase the PLUS option? Are there stats available anywhere to see how many times these prizes would have been won but weren't?
