Lost $150 on a single hand at poker once. 10c/20c table started with $30 and built it up to just under $200. 8 seater I'm small blind with 45 suited two callers and I raised, big blind and one caller folds other guy calls. Flop A23 I bet, he raises, I re-raise, he calls. Turn K I bet, he goes all in, I called. He's got AK for two pair and the cunt rivers another K for a full house. Was fucking spewing and ended up shifting the rest soon after.

Turned a fiver into £200 then into £25 playing 3 card poker online too in less than 20minutes.

Biggest win was about £150 on a coupon. Tims did me out of £2.5k drawing with ICT last season on a £5 12 fold.

Think coupon wise I've won about 650.

Lost about 300 over the course of Cheltenham last year tho Laugh

Don't really bet anymore. Stuck a 25 a week cap on my accounts and I'm very rarely in the casino. Sounds daft but I just hate sitting at a table with other people etc. Just like sitting on the digital machines no getting judged when I go all in and lose.

400 grand at a casino Greggy

In Korean Won, so actually about 250 quid at the time. I`ve never actually won at the bookies, just a handful of small bets that never paid off and I haven`t place a bet of any kind in about two years. My biggest loss was 20 quid on a horse that finished last Warnock

Won £1200 on a score and win accumulator
Lost doesn't tend to be more than £10 a bet although possibly £20-30 a weekend if it's a poor weekend.

Won around £1500 from £15 on an 8-team accumulator, biggest win by far as I rarely ever win, at all.

Biggest loss in one go would be around £100 on an accumulator but closer to £200 in the casino after a night out.

I shouldn't really gamble Warnock

Won 300 odd quid on a 9/2 and 16/1 five pound double on the horses in the Ladbrokes, Nicholson Sq.

Lost $1500 at the roulette table in Vegas trying to double up.   Sob  

Watched it for ages, and after tonnes o reds in a row I made my move.  100 on black.  Red.  200 on black.  Red.  FFS.  400 on black. Aye, you guessed it.  Had taken out a 1000 at the beginning of the night as my limit.  Rushed to cashie but only back in time to see it come up black.  Fuck off!!!.  I chased it again, after swapping tables and betting on red following 5 blacks in a row.  Came up 0.  What an absolute cretin.  1500 to get 100, that never came.  Special

Like Floyd I was also up after the beattie semi, think I had Hearts and Arsenal IIRC. Got cracking odds for the hearts win and came out to the pub with about £250 of a sweetener in my pocket.

Favourite wins have been the chesney come back game when he was 35/1 first scorer, along with the skacel hat trick 80/1 ridiculousness against St Mirren. Great times.

Most I’ve ever won in a casino was about £3,500

Not long after I started seeing the current mrs needed to get my passport done at short notice as it was expiring just after I went on holiday and I was due to go away with work after so booked a one day appointment on a Saturday morning and had a night in Glasgow on the Friday. Went for dinner then a wee walk about and jumped into one of the casinos, 5 minutes in just fucking about on the slots and get a feature come up to get 10 free spins after a couple 3 diamonds came on the win line. Not having a clue I see a mini bonus for £660 and feel well chuffed the the win line goes over £700 and still counting so then I noticed the maxi bonus of £2,800! 

Fucked about for a few more hours and left there with the £3,500

Been a few times since and won a few times for a few hundred but no big losses, when the Forth Road Bridge was shut we’d go for a night in Edinburgh then stay in the casino until they close then get the first train home in the morning

Biggest win is probably a few hundred quid.

Biggest loss not too bad but they probably add up. Went through a small phase of putting on very big bets for a small but highly probable return, on very stupid matches (some random russian lower league or womens football in austria) Eek

Not that into it tbh. Have sacked betting completely and instead of any bets i would put on, I just chuck the stake into freetrade and buy a share.

I made an account with Betvictor in January just for the free bets offer they had. Got a free tenner to use on the roulette. Took £850 from it and closed the account Laugh

Yep, was bingo. Think you got far more credits than what you paid for, and then anything you won was withdrawable right away.

I ended up with about a fiver, but was one number away from some random £2500 jackpot that popped up halfway through a game Sob
