Jeremy 0 Posted December 17, 2006 $50 entrance fee to play fantasy football. If that doesn't count, next highest is $5 on the superbowl with a classmate in high school. I lost. If you think I'm matching wits with a group of people (sports bookies) who know more about each team and their players than the coaches of those teams, you're nuts.

Yer mom 2 Posted December 17, 2006 last night i got drunk and made a bet with a bookie out of miami that the washington redskins would cover their 9 1/2 point spread against the new orleans saints for $ 7,500 Im not sure I believe you. I've been sports betting for years and the largest bet I ever placed was $5,000 and you can imagine I obviously had a decent bankroll to place a wager of that size. So your either rich already, or completely retarted. And am I mistaken or are you a chick? Seems unreasonable to think a chick would place a bet of that size with strong possibility of not having great handicapping skills? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tarheel Boy 0 Posted December 17, 2006 $200. Whatever year FSU played Virginia Tech for the national championship I took the Noles giving up 7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
De Novo 0 Posted December 17, 2006 $1,500 on the Ravens to cover in the playoffs 4 or 5 years ago against the Titans. That didn't quite work out as planned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TommyGavin 788 Posted December 18, 2006 $1000 Browns/Ravens. I was in Baltimore, Gree Turtle @Fells Point. Won by 1/2 point Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeshushu 51 Posted December 18, 2006 $500.00 for the Cowboys to beat the Bills in one of the super bowls. I think Cowboys were favored by 10 and I was sweating it out at half time. I think the Bills were ahead until the Cowboys woke up but then I was sweating a garbage TD by the Bills at the end of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TommyGavin 788 Posted December 18, 2006 Also I "buy" a $1000 super bowl box every year - won 12 years ago - STILL UP!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted December 18, 2006 last night i got drunk and made a bet with a bookie out of miami that the washington redskins would cover their 9 1/2 point spread against the new orleans saints for $ 7,500 First off, the 'skins were getting 9.5 points this week against NO. If you are going to make a bet, you should know that you are either giving points (need to cover) or getting points. I would prefer not to say what the largest bet that I have made is, but I have placed bets that are 7 figures. Of course, that is more believable than your alias, so what the hell?

Lionsjunkie 1 Posted December 18, 2006 Lost 9K on the Wings about 10 years ago in the playoffs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phillybear 364 Posted December 18, 2006 Won around 11 grand on the Cowboys when they won and covered vs Green Bay on a Monday Night, the night Chris Boniol kicked 7 FGs to account for all of Dallas's points. Won about 8 grand on the Eagles, when they were a home dog in the playoffs to Detroit during the Rodney Peete, Ricky Watters tenure. I finished off a ton of winning parlays and reverses with the Eagles. Two biggest bets I ever made. Haven't bet over a grand on anything else. And nowadays, a one unit bet = $100 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is the biggest bunch of bullshiot. First off, I don't know many bookies that would just take a $7,500 bet from a first time player. Next, I highly doubt losing $7,500 on a bet wouldn't have been a big deal to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
