Most money you've ever won?

Was big into poker a few years back while in college. Played and won a lot online and the single biggest was a tournament I won with about 400 or so people in it. Lasted about 4-5 hours and finished at around 4.30am, but for the $2,500, it was worth it.

Oh boy I bet you were madder at not being rich than happy at being better off!

I won a small cake in a primary school raffle. I never win anything :pac:

Won 2500 on the lotto in paddy power. Four numbers on the national lottery would have probably got me a scratch card.

Won €600 in a casino one night. Just bet a tenner and built it from there. Nice one!

I never won anything big in the lotto sense but I do count myself lucky because I sold all my property end 07/ earl 08 after getting some advice from an inside banker who happend to be a freind of a freind. I can still remember, at a family wedding in july 2007 and he told us to sell EVERYTHING we have in terms of property (buy to let stuff etc) and I did, THANK GOD. If I had waited a few more weeks I would have been up **** creek with every one else.
Actaully, Just rememered I won 300 pounds in a raffle years ago!
