Let's share our biggest winning odd.

Last month I won a bet with 7.5 odd.
I bet on Tennis against Rafael Nadal.  ;D ;D ;D

Good call, I don't know what matches is that, but it seems that Nadal is way past his prime already and again, not sure if he is retiring already. For me though, years ago I beat on a NBA game at a tie and if I'm not mistaken, the odds that time in sportsbet.io is 9.x I can only remember one team which is the Bucks. I don't know what I chooses tie in that game, maybe it was a hunch or I think it's going to be a close game after-all.

Eventually the Bucks won in OT, but obviously, it's a bet that I can't forget.  :)

Heresy!!

Sorry, my patriotic streak comes out.

I remember that I was very close to win a bet with a 18.0 odd once. It was a pass between two players that should've ended in a goal. The pass happened several times at different moments of the game, but none of them ended in goal, even if in several occasions they were very close to. I thought to bet 50€ in order to get 900€. I finally let myself be carried away by reason and bet 10€ for 180€, still not bad, which I lost, but I remember that it made the game more exciting.

Well mine wasn't all that long as I can basically remember even watching the game. Mine was 8.49 odd given to united in the FA cup finals although I was just flexing it and taught not to stake the game with a huge amount so I bet the game which just 3$ and it gave me a winning of around 25$ in all of which the value was around 35000thousand Nigerian naira, it was really fun watching the game and seeing how united beautifully sealed up that win too although for the time city scored the consolation goals I was a bit pumped thinking they might actually draw the game.

Recently, this one, a boxing match between Spence and Crawford, here. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5447634.msg62621169#msg62621169/) It was almost 10.00x odds for Crawford to win in between rounds 7-9.

And I put a lot of money there so as I boxing fan, I'm happy to see my bet hitting and winning that huge odds.

For sure though there are many members here that might hit more than that in a single bet they are just shy to show it here, or maybe they can't remember it anymore.

I have used $10 to win around $76 before. I have forgotten the exact odd but it was a big win for me. Not the money but the odd is what I meant as big.

But if it is casino, I have used $20 to win over $250 before in a spin game. That is more than 10x. But this is not about casinos but sports.

My biggest wining odd was 30odd which I won recently with $2 I never expected it though. Gambling can be funny sometimes when you play with a bigger amount it seams the game don't play easily but when you reduce the rate of your stake then it wins. Sometimes I wounder if gambling only need a lower amount to be possible to win. At times I play $10 with 4odd sometimes I play $15 With 3 odd yet it wouldn't even play, but sometimes when I play $1 game, it easily plays. So gambling can be quite funny.

That was a long time ago. But as far as I remember, I placed a $1 bet on one football match and won almost $6. Maybe it wasn't a big win but I rarely win that big.

I already thought that the team could win easily. But because I was too afraid of losing, I didn't bet much money. Luckily, I won even though it wasn't a big win.

Placing bets on sports matches requires caution. We can't be too confident about winning. That is why we can only place bets with money we can afford to lose. By doing that, we can avoid big losses if we lose.

I can't recall the exact highest odds i've won overall, but one of the highest I can remember is around 4.50~ odds.

It all started from tailing someone's bet builder from one of the betting groups i'm in because it looked convincing with the stats he provided.

I also posted it somewhere in another thread, but I couldn't find it anymore due to the broken images.

Wow, that’s a great bet, I must say. 7.5 as odds means you really took a high risk to win that bet. If you don’t mind sharing, then what was the bet amount? I highly doubt that it will be more than 100 USD. If you ask me, then I am a person who doesn’t like to take high risks and bet out of the league. Before placing any bets, I do thorough research on the playground, the playing conditions, and the players. So if I remember correctly, then the maximum odds with which I have won will not be more than 2.5x. I know it’s not so big, but still, I was shaking continuously while the game was on.

The most recent one was the day Crystal Palace won over Liverpool and that same day Arsenal lost to Aston Villa at home. Everything happened like a movie.
That Sunday afternoon I just had the feeling to bet against Arsenal and Liverpool. It was like I knew they'll both drop points. Since I wasn't so sure, I double chance Crystal Palace and played Aston Villa to win.
The double chance on Crystal Palace was about 4.6 odd while Aston Villa to win Arsenal was 10 odds.
The bet was ridiculous, but I usually make these ridiculous bets every now and then.
At the end of the day, both Crystal Palace and Aston Villa won and I started regretting why I didn't give Crystal Palace a straight win since their odds were about 14 to win.

I have several of these like 4.00 I remember a win by KO in UFC.  If you bet just winners and losers in this sport, you only get the chance to win 30% rooting for the favorite fighter. But betting on the method of winning can get you higher odds to win.

There are risker bets like which round will the fighter win but this is too much to speculate unless they are heavy-weight fighters which usually just end in less than 3 rounds.

As for me when placing a bet I don't fear odd for odds are just number severely I have seen team with bigger odd winning smaller odd though I have won a game that has big odd in it but the recent one I won was the just concluded English FA cup final between Manchester City and Manchester United which Manchester United was have 5.80 odd and I decided to single to single it in the favor of Manchester United because I wasn't looking at there odd for football can be funny and I placed Manchester United to win the match and they won.

Well I can't recall any big odd winning for me although for now am piping low abit on the sportsbetting section and I think am doing more of virtual games although it's way risky than the normal sportsbetting games but it's really sooting and relaxing especially if you are just playing the games for fun. For most of the virtual games I have played (soccer) my normal stakes are base on only huge odds with little staking power like 1-5$ and for most times I have won alot of the big odds like from 7-14odds depending on the particular time the system decides to play it.

The biggest on a single match i have won is a 9 odd, i won in a football fixture  where the home team was given 9 odds to win the away team who was given 1.95 odd but then the away team had a red card and the home team was able to utilize the advantage and won by two goals before the end of the game, that ahs been my highest win on a single game since i started gamble but then occasionally i have won two and three odds on a single game when i make a GG pick and sometimes number of goals picks as well too, this has been the odd range that's really seem high that i have been able to win inmost recent times.

Winning big odds sometimes is actually really interesting but its never a thing that  gets to occur too often, it usually comes up once in awhile but you will have to be really observant to understand when to place such bets on such games knowing how high your chances can be with such games but then you most definitely going to be lucky one of these day if only you keep trying because generally gambling is a game of luck and you never can be too sure of when you are definitely going to get lucky and definitely win.

Anything over 2.00 odds is less than a 50% chance to win. That being said, I remember a few years back when the Golden State Warriors were down by 20-25 points and I bet on them at halftime. I don't remember the exact odd, but somewhere around 6.00. It was a big gamble IMO but with Klay and Steph and the way they can get on a streak shooting 3 pointers, it was worth the gamble. Long story short, the bet won and I became a Warriors fan after that.

It's good as you win that games but how much do you wager on that odd? The figures you wager determines the amount you win, so can you also share with us how much you wager on the 7.5 odd?
However you winning that big odd is not something new in the gamble world, there are many big odds in the world of gamble and the performance of every players/team determines the odd too. But sometimes it looks like the odds are being manipulated by the odd makers, and that's why they sometimes gives the bigger odds to the team or players that their performance are good and when you did not check their past match and their head to heads you win he able to know the ones that doing well and the ones that's not. That's why most times it's good to check.
Sometimes that's how it is, gamble is a gamble of chance and luck, a gambler sometimes gets the chance to win and that's what we call luck. Some gamblers don't bet on high odds because it's either they believes that they games with small odds are the sure ones.

I got 2 good stories.

In 2009 there was a match between Federer and Tsonga. Federer had the lead in the 3rd set being up 5:1. I played on betfair and bought 500:1 odds on Tsonga ( even saw 800:1 at one point ) , unfortunately only with 2euro. Well, Tsonga won the match in the tie break and I was angry with myself not betting at least like 5euro, haha.

Another good odds I got was last year when I bet 20$ on Germany to win the basketball world cup, with odds of 41:1 . And as it happens, Germany won. This was only a fun bet though, also because I thought Germany has a legitimate chance to go far and maybe I can cash out at some point. Well, cash out was never offered so obviously I just let it play out then, successfully.  ;D

You are a luck guy, I learned that tennis is very easy to win than soccer. In soccer I have win a huge amount but it has been long since I won that amount and now that am too busy with school, I don't give too much attention to gambling for now.

People bet differently and some people might win will small odd or higher odds and at last they come up with something reasonable or positive, so therefore I believe that you can win with any odd base on the amount you use to stake, so anyone who is staking with higher amount with low odd can win big amount, so not everyone can recall the odd he or she uses to win a large amount of funds, at least you will win based on what you feel like using to stake your bet, so any big amount of winning comes from big amount of staking, so your winning is been determined by the amount you use for bet.

Exactly. Some games just come with higher odds, trying to channel the minds of people to the other side. Most gamblers believe that the lower the odds, the higher the chances of winning the game, and the higher the odds, the lower the chance of winning, so by going for smaller odds, they can stake big money and hope to make a profit from the winning, which most times turns out the opposite way.
 
I just prefer to place my bet most times based on my analysis, especially on football. With the help of the team's previous performances, I can easily make my bet without minding the odds, even if they are on the higher side.

I've gotten 20x for combining some esport bets during a tournament. It was just a lucky bet because I didn't know all the teams and obviously I won it based on chance. But in my home league I sometimes more frequently try 10x parlay bets and have a decent history with them. Do far I have more than 10% success rate but I expect it will balance out eventually in the longer run. I also play sometimes larger multipliers with a few spare cents but I've never hit it to be honest.

Winning up to 20x is a pretty good gambling journey because not everyone can get that opportunity. Imagine when you use $1000 in capital, the profits you get should be very large. Maybe we can make a profit again in the Bundesliga, La Liga and English League football matches which will start next season. So far in this competition we can predict a little easier to determine which team will be the winner.

Nice one brother, since no one is going for the lost odd but I'll say the lost odd and the winning. Last week I almost won 70odd but I was lucky yesterday, won 95odd, I never believed my eyes.

20x odd. I was starting on betting and it was a boxing match on a casino i haven't used for a long time anymore. It was a match that looked like it could be boring to watch live. And if i had bet on either of the fighters odds would have been really low, so i decided to make things more interesting. I have to say i was really surprised i won. I think it was only $5 bet though. I can't remeber who the fighters were, only that they were men. It was a long time ago.

But it was pure luck, and combination bets have served me better.

unfortunately in my case my biggest win on a simple bet was on a bet with an odd of 4.00, I never managed to get a single bet of more than 5.00, maybe it's because I don't take risks when I look at a game in which the underdog has a high odds and has good chances of winning, probably the majority of people who have been successful in single bets with high odds are people who keep betting on the underdogs, and it is a big risk that these people take when they keep betting only on the underdog. I prefer to place multibet bets with large odds, I see it being more advantageous compared to placing single bets with large odds

Nice & standard odd. my biggest odd wad 100 odd on past world cup.  it was surprising match and surprising odd When I placed the bet I accepted that I would lose  Because I bet at times on teams that were sure to lose. But they luckily go to the match and meanwhile I also have a good fortune.  I won a $20 bet there at 100 odds. That was my biggest win from a football game. Apart from the World Cup I rarely bet on football so I haven't won any big odds since then

From what I remember, it was the previous fight of John Riel Casimero (Boxer).
Although the odds is not high because fight is really favored to John Riel Casimero, I just bet even odds will not give me high wins, what I did is I increase my bet so I can win bigger especially I am really positive that John Riel Casimero will win in that fight, then I won.

I still remember that IPL match where I bet on a team that had no chance of winning. The odds of that team winning were very low, so I bet a relatively small amount of money and got a lot of money as a result. I always remember the outcome of that match when gambling and I still try to wait for the unexpected outcome in some matches and take that opportunity.

As for sports betting, it was the odds on hockey and the World Cup in 2018, then I saw one very weak team and when it played against average teams, I bet on the winnings of these average teams or even weaker ones. So the biggest coefficient was about 3.5, I was very pleased with this. In general, I think that large odds are good and I like to bet on them more than on any nonsense like x1.2 or x1.5.

And if we take other games, then it was in some slot games with gin, there was about x20, but I definitely can’t remember the exact number. Now I play slots extremely rarely, because sports betting has become more interesting for me.

I also played poker, but there were no huge winnings, especially since it is difficult to remember exactly how many times I multiplied my buy-in by winning the tournament, but this happened several times.

In order to find the odds, you can just divide your winning amount to the bet amount you have used. I did a calculation and got a 7.6 number. On your casino game, the odd there is 12.5, which are higher than your sports bet. I can see that most of us here only got a small odd because to me, my definition of high odds are like over 500x, although I already saw one before here in our forum. It was a parlay bet.

I don't wonder because getting them is also very hard and it can take us a lot of trials and errors which is also equals to more expenses and this is not fun anymore. Gambling is not a way to make money anyway but it's a place to get entertained.

I have not been lucky to win the unregular odds anyway. I think I will try increasing the risk for odds because you can't win big like that if you don't aim and bet on those high odds. There have been some high odds that I predicted to win and it finally happened that way but it was just a prediction without betting on it.  ;D

Such an opportunity doesn't always happen more often; there might be such a game with very high odds, and the chances of the option they give her to play that way are almost equal to zero.
 
The best is to not only wait to see such opportunities present themselves, but you can also be using other games to improve your prediction skills.

That way, you can be able to detect when some sportsbook providers are trying to use low and high odds to divert the gamblers attention from what it could have initially been to what option they want them to play; at the end of the day, they indirectly produce more losers for that particular game.

Well, although it is a fact that you will earn more or win a lot of money in one bet if you increase the odds, of course the amount you will lose will also be huge, but it depends on you. If you know you can handle it, why not? And also, if you are good at predicting or betting in a match, there might be a chance that you will win big. This is just a reminder that if you push through it, you will never regret it and chase your losses because it might be the start of you being greedy and eager to win big in order to recover your losses. Anyway, for me, my biggest odds that I placed in a single bet were 20x, and luckily I won it, but I never do it again because the anxiety and fear while waiting for the result of the match are too much and I can't take it.

I'm really all the luck type when taking those kind of risks on one game, I would hardly even dare to pick those kind of odds in a multiple selection neither would I dare to pick them in singles, my biggest win odd in one single selection was a draw and it was 4 odds, It was my first time it happened and since then rarely.

12.6 if I remembered it correctly, in bet builder also in fiat based gambling site. Unfortunately, I did not bet that much because of the high odds but I am still haappy that I've earned a decent profit. There were also odds reaching 56 and up in my experience but I am often missing an inch from winning.
There are ways to handle it; lessen the amount to bet and increase the odds of winning, but in a way that winning is still feasible. Sometimes odds are high because losing has just a higher tendency. So if you would be too greedy of earning big in an instant through high bets and high odds, well, goodluck 'coz I don't have plans of doing the same thing. Eitherway you should be embracing the idea that losing is more certain so be careful embracing that much of a risk.

Am mostly associated with football clubs betting which is also known as soccer, thou not everyone that likes betting on singles but as for me I consider betting on singles as one of the best betting strategy as it requires only single game and not a multiple of it which at most times gives less opportunity of winning compared to single, but one of the disadvantage of betting on single is that it requires staking with a more higher amount for you to see a good return as winning, my biggest winning odd on single match was 5odd, it was actually on a live betting, were the club that has less chances of winning the game had the first goal and the winning odd for the other club increased from 2odd to5odd were by they stand a better chance of winning the match on seeing this I have to click the bottom and finally the game ended by  1 goal goes to 2 and I won.

Congratulations to you my friend, but I must say that you risked big, and for you to have won it big, you deserve it. But I will not call myself a coward even as I couldn't replicate your high winning record or have some similar winnings close to it. In my conclusion on what happened, since it is a single winning, it is clear even before mentioning it that you had betted against the most popular star ( Rafael Nadal) that is the only reason why the odds are that big in a single winning. But my friend, I am different from you and try to be as conservative as I can. For this, I only analyzed my stars/teams positively and picked my options due to popularity and based on old and current performances, so I wouldn't have chosen against the popularity which handed you that huge odds.

For this, the highest odd I've ever hit was about 2.7. Like I always say, I am a conservative bettor who also considers my psychology and the management of my gambling portfolio above anything else. I do not allow my feelings or negative temptation of the bigger old to shift my ground on my style of betting and I intend to keep it that way to avoid issues. Someone like you may win this kind of bet once in a way, but I tell you, I win my bets regularly by sticking to my ideology.

I don't bet with such huge odd and I rarely do it if I do. But the most recent win that I've got is with the Dallas Mavericks against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Most odds of it were like only 2.5+ depending on the book maker if you bet for the Mavericks. Although it is them that are on advantage having that almost sweep record.

Still, bookmakers have honored the homecourt advantage of the Timberwolves but, they still lost.

I thought I am the only one facing this as that has been my experience after playing a game I thought that base on the odd it will play I decided to use 15 dollars so that the change can be if something as the accumulated odd from the selected game is 40 the game cut but the one I play with one dollar which the amount can't even give me good subscription card as the off is very infinitesimal come play I come dey regret why I did not use a reasonable amount to play it, that is why gambling most time is considered game if luck as most situation is unpredictable, but it take some experience to put into account what I experience with that game against next playing of game.

For this year, it was the same game multiplier for me. I forgot the exact odds but it's somewhere between x20-x30. I just input all the obvious stats for each star and roleplayer that I know who is getting a lot of minutes of playtime. I was not even surprised that I could win it because I expected everything to hit each stat I input. From rebounds to points, I know each player can somehow reach it.

Then last time I bet on the tennis games too. I made a long parlay and when I saw an x8 cash-out option, I took it without even thinking twice. I was lucky because my next pick was a loss and the time I cashed it out was when they were tied. It was the right timing it was so satisfying when you see the results going south after you cash out.

That was quiet a huge odd as its really rare to having to be able to win such odd at a time on a single game except you get lucky of which i think in your case you were lucky because sometimes you may be very skilled and yet you will be unable to win such odd even on an accumulator, so winning it on a single game is actually a huge one as its not see happening quiet often. The trial you always make with few cent is a good one after all gambling is a game of luck, just one day you may eventually get to win and be really lucky at it. The fact that you use just a few cent to engage in several trial sounds like good money management.

Gambling responsible has always been the advice experienced gamblers and even the casino mostly give out to its customers because they know that is the only way to stay in the game long enough because if you are gambling recklessly you may get bankrupt Sonner than you have taught but trying whit a few cent gives you the leverage to still gamble for long but your wins may not be really huge when you get one because the stake as well isn't big.

I don't have much experience on sports betting because I don't bet much on sports betting. Blackjack is one of my favorite games and I play it most of the time. If I talk about sports betting then I won from here at most maybe 6-7 Odd on a single bet. But in Blackjack I have won up to 40 odd because of flush cards. this was the biggest odd win in my gambling life on a single bet. I posted a story a long time ago about how I lost my loaned money playing blackjack. Since then I have reduced the amount of gambling so I don't have a winning record more then 30 odd recently.

That is quite a nice and lucky game if it was a sports prediction. Now for a regular sports betting in most casinos, to be able to win $76 from a $10 stake the gambler would have to place that stake on a bet with about 7.6 odds . Conventionally if you observe regular sports betting you would notice that bigger Odds are usually very risky based on the fact that the depend more on luck than the ability of the gambler to analyze the game. Most of the time the bigger the odds or multiplier, the thinner the chances of winning based on a normal probability from more of a mathematical perspective.
Besides making bets on huge odds can be tempting sometimes because a win is damn too profitable depending on the large size of your stake and likewise losing such a bet can also be very painful.

I think that Madrid will play the final in a very safe way, that is to say, they will focus on attacking, they will not let Dortmund breathe and as soon as they get 1, 2 or 3 goals I imagine that they will close up in defence, as they did against Man City and that is something that is allowed. Personally, I have always said one thing, if we start to see how many strategies can be carried out for a final, it is useless, you have to have 2 strategies at most and one is for when you are winning and the other if you are losing. I am not going to say that Madrid is going to win by a landslide, because you only have to look at the example of Leverkusen against Atalanta.

As you say there are opportunities that will not always come but when those opportunities do come we have to take advantage of those opportunities. Sometimes if we don't take advantage of the opportunity, we will later regret why we didn't do that. In gambling, if an opportunity comes to us where we have a chance of winning the jackpot, we feel that we should take the risk and take advantage of that opportunity.
