what is the largest sports bet you have ever placed, and what was the result

[Outhue]

I don't have any large bets on sports because it's still gambling and I know why I need to only risk what I can afford to lose, either sports or roulette you need to risk what you can afford to lose, if the money you are risking first whenever you lose it them you shouldn't be gambling, you should be building ways to make more money until you get to a spot where gambling no longer hurts.

What kind of hurt can come to you when you are making thousands of dollars in a month and you are risking $100 or $300 every week on gambling? Also gambling money needs to come straight from your entertainment budget, not your savings or mortgage payment.

I use very low amount on gambling and I don't gamble more than two times in a week, and if good amount of money is made in that week I can gamble three times in that week, the amount is too small for me to remember the results but I do know that I lost most of the time.

bonus question: did that experience cause you to play more or less? and do you still bet?

Well the largest sports bet I have ever placed was boxing for $20. I won because I placed bets on every Naoya Inoue fights. 😁 That experience actually is not a cause why I play more, it is just that I trust the capability of the player. Of course, I will still place bets if I had the chance or has extra money, why not? 😁

I'm not someone who belongs here probably because in all the time I've been playing especially in sportsbooks, I've never even played with more than $10 in each bet made but I tend to gamble a lot every week especially in soccer.
But regardless I think it's a good thing for me because at the end of the day it satisfies my desire to bet on matches that happen in several sports including soccer and e-sports because I also love games so I always try to bet even if it's not much but I'm comfortable with it.

As for how much you bet I think this also depends on your strength in financial stability and I don't want to burn a lot of money within a week or 2 weeks so with this I try to bet with a small amount but for a longer period because in the end what I am aiming for is also not about winning big at once but playing based on my mood when I lose a bet when the bet I created is not more than $10 then I am also not too burdened with it.

That's an easy win bet. I remember this fight also gave me a big win. You know wouldn't really hit big if you just chose the high odds with a small amount to bet.
So you also picked Inoue by KO because the odds as far as I can remember were 2.10 which means that $20 turned $40+ after the fight.

It pays when you know the athlete that you can foresee what he might do to end the fight.  The harder the prediction the higher the odds, if some brave soul predicted Naoya will KO Futon in round 8, he'd be the real McCoy.

I don't think I've ever bet large amounts, even though the match was my favorite club.

The main reason I do sports betting is just to add to the sensation and excitement of watching a match. And on the other hand, I also quite enjoy doing match analysis to just hone my skills and instincts. I only bet the amount I am prepared to lose. Because I don't want the excitement I get when watching matches and betting to end in regret. Because I couldn't bear the defeat I experienced.

When placing bets, we must be prepared to lose, not ready to win. However, if you have more courage to bet a high amount, and are ready to bear the loss. That's fine. as long as before you start betting, you have carried out a thorough analysis. Because if it is done without prior analysis, it is not courage but recklessness.

So that means you are only playing on small odds? I don't like this because when I lose, I can also lose huge. Usually, I gamble on high odds using small amount of money/bets. Even if we don't gamble often, we can still win huge once our luck kicks in and we hit that huge multiplier we are always hunting on. If we gamble rarely, I think it's fine to use a slightly higher amount. You are not obligated though.

You can still stick on your regular routine if your goal is to reduced your gambling habit or to quit gambling soon because you are once an addict. The last thing that you said is true, but if I only want to have fun, I can do that better in casino games.

The important thing is that if I place a bet on sports betting, I can only place a betting amount that I can afford. Even though I am confident in my analysis, I still don't place a bet that is too high because I am always alert to the course of the match. Moreover, I'm also not very good at analyzing matches so by placing appropriate bets, even if I lose, I don't lose a lot of money. But if I win, the amount of money I get won't be too much.

I also don't chase winnings in betting on sports betting. But indeed casino games can provide fun because we play immediately and don't wait like in sports betting. Well, everything has to be adjusted to the capital we have so that we don't gamble excessively.

When I placed 120 dollars( that is my week of day job pay) in a basketball match that I believe and confidently knew will win because that is a game between Chicago Bulls and LA Lakers back  in the years but i was fool enough to not see it coming and I lose, never that I bet more than 20 dollars again, never in my life up to now lol.

I start learning that gambling is a gambling and no one can assure us anything  , that bet is against my office mate though He shared me a week of lunch because of my losing to him lol.

[bitbollo]

once I placed a very high amount for my wallet...  (bigger 5K euro less 10K).
Also considering that it was placed on a single point of a final set.... a very big risk... since it doesn't allow any edge or cashout. I was pretty sure of the result and it ended in a win.
I made a "monster" profit in less than 5 minutes.

This event made me play less, in terms of frequency and total amount of money to gamble...
It was not the first time that I have placed an amount so high... in other situation I had also a lost... but it's part of gambling, anyone who tells you that wins everytime is telling a big lie

I don't actually place big amount in a single bet because my method is using small of money to target big amount. As you know,  it is one thing to make rule and another to keep them. So, once in a while there there is this temptation yo try something new like a new approach for a different outcome.

In one of my time of trying something new, I decided to stake big amount on selected games I considered safe. Consequently,  I staked $50 targeting to win $500. Unfortunately the game failed and I was deeply pained. Since then I have not tried playing with big amount again.

You've done well in your gambling approach by only putting small amounts, that's very good, but I don't really understand what you mean that you are targeting large amounts using only small money for fishing, it's quite difficult to achieve such big results if you only use a small budget, although basically it might be possible if you are really lucky, but certainly I think it takes a long time with several trials. But yeah forget it maybe you can just be patient to wait for the luck to come, no problem.

If you have a rule that you think is the best then go for it, I see that you are one of those gamblers who is responsible enough to only put a small amount, because it means that you take a small risk, and if the final result does not match then the amount of loss you experience may not upset you. If you are tired of small budget amounts that can't give you a big win then I don't think it's the right way if you choose to increase the budget amount, because basically gambling is just an activity for profit, so a large budget amount will not fully become a big win, and that means you better go back to your original rules with a small budget amount, that's better. 

it appears as though you're the one that's making the thing more complex than it already is for @adultcrypto. I guess what he did isn't different from what an average gamblers does on a regular bases. While you have your limit that you normally wouldn't want to go above, it's just normal to at some point try something big and check if luck will shine on you or not. If he had probably won while he tried his luck, our conversation would have taken a different time and it's possible that you might be currently looking at it as a good gambling approach.

Gambling is a game of luck that involves that you make some crazy decisions at some point without always trying to be too smart. You won't always win on all the bets you place and regardless of wether you're betting with a smaller amount or a bigger one, it wouldn't make a big  difference which time luck will really shine on you and that's one reason why you will observe that most matured gamblers would occasionally stake above there usual lilit and hope that it pays off well. But while you're doing this it's necessary you put it at the back of your mind that anything can go wrong. Play with an amount you're certain that it you loose it, you will still be fine along the line and I guess even after the dude lost the money, it probably didn't affect him that much and that's why he had to just decide he won't be gambling with such amount and didn't resort to taker a worse off decision that could be disastrous to his mental health.

I'm sure those of us in the community have a lot of experience with sports betting, whether betting with a large or small bankroll. conversely, so does defeat. we have extensive experience when it comes to sports betting, whatever the league. For me, not much has changed in terms of my betting principles. For now, especially after the last World Cup ended, I'm not too intense about betting big enough money. However, it all depends on how the match goes. team, and the opportunities we have. Everything is always a consideration for me personally, so only certain moments do I bet with a fairly large bankroll.

Well, I had some moments in sports betting on the world cup in Qatar. Some matches were good from the group phase to the next stage, there were some that gave me a lot of wins.  almost always if I bet with a large enough bankroll, just for a single bet. except, when there are several matches that provide a quite tempting picture of the chances of winning. some of them were during the matches Germany vs Japan, Portugal vs Morocco, the odds available were quite large for the Underdog team. The results were quite satisfying, I even bet on Argentina in the final. Well, for now I'm just betting what I can, not too much and no need to force it. as for everything else, I can bet multibet with any bankroll I want. that is, I don't bet too much. Anyway, tip, bet according to your abilities and can afford to lose. That way, we won't be too burdened when the results don't match expectations.

The highest bet was on sport bet and I could remembered vividly that I staked with upto  100k NGN and I was too sure of the bet making me to increase my wager without the knowledge that there was a little change of player. After I lost that in a local gambling site I was so much disappointed couple with the amount used to stake the bet, although then my risk level weren't high and it hurt me so badly but after I came encountered with that never feels bad like that again and I have always learned my lesson.

Well, I can’t really tell because I have different amount I have played because I am not playing with a big huge amount in gambling. I always mind mine gambling amount because I know it is just a rig and I’m being careful all the time so I can’t really point out, huge amount for myself because I understand the gambling word and I always choose to be careful to avoid some challenges ahead and gambling because it emotionally come if you enter gambling with all your energy without thinking back and look further because it is a very big problem at the end

[Peanutswar]

Most likely, i do sports betting on Football and Basketball, of course, fan will always support its favourite team, if you will include with the e-sports betting Dota 2, id prefer all time playing in the sports betting because of the background I know the teams and always want to have higher chance of wins, I do always match winners so there's a possibility that can do 50/50 chance of winning and just single ticket game only so I can watch the whole game before making another bet. One of my recent bet is on the match of Mavericks versus Boston this game is surely predictable who becomes the winner and I have the sequence of the game I will bet until Game 7 hope this won't fails me.

What was the largest bet I ever placed: I don’t intend to make that public, sorry.

What the result was: it was a in. I won on that bet and it was very refreshing and relaxing given that, I had almost lost close to that wager in the same day. How terrible was that!
So, it was typically a result of chasing my lose which is what no one should do. It defies gambling ethics and you find yourself gambling way more than you can afford to lose.

So I had lost a considerable amount of money on my previous bets and it was very unsettling for me, I wasn’t willing to let them go and I dared myself to taking yet another bet, doubled my stake and went for a 2 odd in the 1X2 market. It was a stake on Barcelona and I won.

Don’t try that though, one wrong move and your way up your head!

I also have this kind of phycology with gambling especially when you have put your hope on winning a particular bet but it failed. It is more painful when just a game stops you from winning jackpot and that is why I advise using cash out for the bet you are doubting. I started really changing my mind on huge stake when the last time, staking few games with high payroll still ended up in lose. So to be reasonable with the payroll and staking power takes you out from the bad filling of losing huge amount.
