What’s The Most Money You Have Made Gambling?

minimus

Casino gambling? Keno games? Sports? Etc.... I like slots and keno since it’s mindless. All sucker games but I won 1400 on slots and 1000 on keno. Lost more though. 🥵

I had a serious gambling problem 35 years ago. I would gamble on baseball, football and horse racing. The day before my wedding I went to the horse racing track and lost about $300. Weeks before that I lost $2500 on 3 football games. I didn't have the money and had to have my best friend get me a bank loan under his name. I eventually paid it off.

Sometimes I would be careless and leave losing horse race tickets in my car. My brother would borrow my car to take my mom and a group out in field service. They would discover the tickets and ask whose gambling tickets they belonged to. I would lie and blame it on my friend.

The most I ever won in one day was $2600 at the race track. I won a trifecta...4,3,9. I thought that after those winnings, gambling would be easy. I soon found out it wasn't. Sometimes I would lose my whole weeks paycheck in one day. On my wedding day I told myself that I had a gambling sickness and that I needed to stop. I haven't gambled since.

I won $500 with a mega millions ticket. I was one number away from $1,000,000. At the time I needed a new sofa and I had the money set aside to buy it. I used my winnings to buy a $500 nicer sofa than I had originally planned and I happen to be sitting on it now.

ive only ever done the national lottery--£3 each week. won a few £10's which convinced me the winnings werent worth the stress and anxiety each week. Ive not bought any tickets for 15? years now.

ive never bet on a horse--football team--never entered a casino--never had the money to waste.

I must admit gambling can get out of hand as it can be an addiction that can easily get out of control .

Having said that I still play the lottery / Keno and I go in a tipping competition with the races every saturday at the local bowls club.

The wife likes to play the pokies sometimes. over the years she has won 5 -6 thousand dollars on a number of occasions .You have to remember she has a set amount to play with when she plays over a long period of time but a win is a lot of cash all at once.

The most I have ever won was on Keno a 7 number jackpot of 13600 dollars.but I have often won 1800$ ,640$ playing 5 and 6 numbers .

I admit you do have to control your spending and keep to a budget or yo can go off the rails.,it does take discipline.

I lost 25cents on slots. Made $4, and $40 on lotto. No telling how much I spent, but I buy only 1 ticket, or when the powerball is a third gazillion I will buy one.

Everyone talks about how much they win at Vegas but I notice the casinos are still in business.

I won 6200.00 at a crap table one time. Probably lost that much over time as well.

The most I ever saw someone win at one time was when two identical twin brothers were playing the "Dont's" at a crap table and they were cleaning the houses' clock. They were up 1.1M.

Was fun to watch.
