How close have you ever been to winning a big amount/jackpot?

[Jating]

For the Lotto, nah, wasn't even close to getting at least 5 out of 6 numbers. The best that I can do when I'm playing lotto back then was like only 3 or 4 numbers. But that's it. But I haven't try online lotto though, might be different outcome but who knows.

And that's why the odds of hitting that jackpot is really huge, everything should be align, including your lucky star that night to be able to get it.

Best of luck in advance for those who are going to play. Maybe one of this day, I will also try to play on that platform and see how it goes.

When i saw this, the next thing that could get to my mind was those times i used to make sport bettings and have a combination of about 5 to 10 games and the winning amount will be so high beyond my imagination all because the games have some higher odds and the more the risk the higher the odds, but at the end of the matches, i game will always make a spoil of them all and the entire money would be loosed, i would have thought about cashing out but that same game i have confidence in is what will turn the table round that i loose everything, this is a very common experience with some of us that always like sport betting with more games selections.

If you read every line of this my post, you will know how close I was to win big so months back.
However, I don't put that in mind anymore because I believe it want yet my time to win such amount of money, maybe the joy of the win might make you because more addicted to gamble.
However, everyone have their gamble story to tell, more especially when it comes to the point they almost win big from their stake, I mostly bet on sports bet because that's my favorite games.
I haven't tried that lotto bet before because I believe its all about maths just like a post I saw today, but luck is the only thing that makes gamblers win in their bets.

I honestly do not know if we've had a discussion like this before on this board, but this is based on my personal experience while playing on L0tt0.com last night, I was just so close to hitting a x1000 while I was playing pick six game, which would have multiplied my initial bet amount by 1000 times.

But unfortunately, I ended up with a mere x10 because the numbers didn't align well.

Here is the shot below.



As you guys can see on the shot, I placed a bet on 490082, and the system played 480088, and according to the information in the shot below..



If my second number, which is 9, was also the same number the system played, it means that five of my numbers out of six, would have played and I would have made x1000, which Is the second to the highest jackpot being x2500.

It was a very close one for me, and I did spend more than 20 minutes staring at the outcome of this game, and wondering why just one single number had to spoil what would have been a jackpot win for men, and I did x10, instead of x1000  .

Lets discuss guys, how close have you ever been to winning a big about of money, a jackpot, maybe in sports betting or lotto, or any other game that has to do with numbers, online or offline, how close have you ever been to winning a big amount, and what was it that spoilt the win for you.?

The amount you had win from *1000 was very huge,if you had use the 1 dollars for the instant mean.This will multiple the winning amount to 1000 dollars which was the satisfied amount for the gambler.But it was based on the algorithm.The gambler will not withdrew the dollars as you mentioned it was end with the x10,the reason was the gambler get more greedy and continue to play the game.But he fail to understand the fact the luck was only one time not all the time.The greedy was made you to end with x10 from x1000.Nearly you had loss huge after the big win from the gmabling.The blunder one use to do buy the gambler was continuous games after the big win and try for the shot to make you the millionaire in one day.But the bad luck may get all your winning and you should withdrew after big win from gambling sites.

That’s too close, but still congratulations on your winning.
I personally have the same experience in lottery where I can have the chance of getting a big reward but ended up with nothing because of the last two digit that didn’t align with my bet, this could have been change my life but it didn’t happen at all for some reason, well luck will comes some time but its really rare to hit the jackpot.

[Johnyz]

Didn’t have the experience to be so close like this on winning the jackpot, lottery seems not in favor to me but I do have a small experience in bingo which is not that big and its just a local bingo game so I don’t consider it. Hitting the jackpot in Gambling is like one in a million, it’s hard to tell and hard to achieve so once you are able to hit the jackpot, you have to celebrate it because you’re lucky enough to win it.

I never buy lottery ticket so I never had been that close in winning a jackpot or huge amount in lottery.  I only play slots and dice and in those games I never win huge amount of money because I only bet at minimum.  Although I experienced winning more than 1000x of my bet, it is only around $100 - $200+ since  I only bet $0.1 - $0.2 and that amount is not huge compared to the huge winning reward of lottery games.

These are the kinds of experiences that you keep talking about and will find it difficult to forget because they are very painful, the near success experience. These kind of experience can make a gambler want to gamble more because they were so close to winning the last time and will believe  that if they gamble more they are close to winning. If no care is taken, It can turn a responsible gambler to an irresponsible one.

I've been opportuned to come very close to winning big in gambling few times and I can tell you that the feeling you get after coming too close to winning is something that shouldn't be experienced in the first place.
Sometime in 2016, I was very close to winning a bet of about $25,000 I staked in sports betting football precisely. My betting receipt contained 10 games of which the result of 9 of them  tallied with my prediction on the receipt but unfortunately for me, the last game of the was the one who's result didn't tally with what I predicted and it was very difficult for me to accept the outcome and move on

[Weawant]

The closet I have been to winning a big amount of money was on sports gambling few years back when I placed a bet and the bet slip had just seven games, they were random picks with big odds so I didn't consider it a game that could possibly turn out in my favour until about five of the game played and turned out wins.

I then have attention to following up the games because I least expected and now, I'm seeing that five out of seven were already won, so I followed up the remaining two and fortunately the first turned out a win, the second was on and I was following it up ,my pick was over 2.5 goals, and by the end of the first half, they have scored a go already so I was almost so sure I will be winning big that day but sadly by the end of the second half they could get only one more goals and that was how I lost the game.

Ahh, this is very confusing, for me personally, I even tried reading it several times to understand what you mean. Honestly, that's why I don't really like betting on the lottery. and it seems, you are a fan of the lottery game. But, after I tried several times to understand it, I started to understand a little about how it works. and apparently, each lottery will always be different in each country. In particular, local lotteries in each country are definitely different. That's why I have a little difficulty understanding the points of the bet you made.
Please understand, because I'm not a fan of lottery gambling.

But if we imagine, if the system number that comes out is 9. then, you have 5 correct numbers in your bet. and the reward is quite tempting, because it is multiplied by 1000x. Just imagine, if you only bet a few dollars. or one dollar, then the results are quite large compared to the capital we spend. But, there is something I don't understand a little, you guessed 4 numbers correctly. If the number 8 becomes 9, it means you guessed the 5 numbers correctly. Well, haven't you guessed the right 4 numbers? if so, you should get ×250. but, why only x10. However, there's a good chance I'm wrong, because I really don't know how this game works.

Despite all that, lottery is still too complicated for me and I'm not that interested. but if you succeed in breaking through with your guess, that is good luck for you. next time, I hope you have better luck than that. For me personally I prefer sports, it can be single bets or parlay options. As for the parlay option, 3 games is enough, 1x2 betting, with a bankroll that meets my standards. The result is no less interesting than lottery gambling.

I never buy lottery ticket so I never had been that close in winning a jackpot or huge amount in lottery.  I only play slots and dice and in those games I never win huge amount of money because I only bet at minimum.  Although I experienced winning more than 1000x of my bet, it is only around $100 - $200+ since  I only bet $0.1 - $0.2 and that amount is not huge compared to the huge winning reward of lottery games.

Same here, I have never had actually a good chance to bet a big multiplier because I mostly roll dices, play plinko and a little bit of blackjack. Not very into lotteries, besides those tickets I have gotten by meeting wagering requirement for Stake's weekly lottery and such.
Since my bankroll is relatively low and I don't want sessions to be too short, then I am kind of pushed to stay stuck to low multipliers and and low risk.

However, someday I would like to get an extra on my gambling budget and use it to take high multiplier dices, but using only a handful of cents.
After all, if we talk about gambling as a form of entertainment, we are supposed to seek for a gambling/risk setup which makes us feel entertained.

I not surprised by result like this and even though it is step very close to the jackpot then there is just one number that ruins it so that is game that does have random numbers in each output.
So far, the lottery is the only bet that is very difficult to achieve to get the jackpot, in fact incidents like what you are experiencing have happened repeatedly to gamblers.

Don't regret because the one number you were hoping for hasn't come yet and bring you the luck.
I had time to study how this type of betting works, but the human mind will never be able to penetrate the working system of random numbers in the lottery.

After all, everything depends on luck and when you don't have luck whatever number of bets you make and whatever strategy you use, it will be in vain.
Just assume you are unlucky and remember that you are not the only one who has experienced the same thing, many have got the numbers correctly but only made mistake in their position so they can't get the jackpot.

Hey komisariatku!

So just so everyone is clear- the game Fivestar4ever is talking about is Pick-Six on l0tt0.com. All the games on my site are instant play... It's not like a lottery, more like scratch off tickets and slots.

With that said, you pick 6 numbers or you can randomize it. You can bet up to 5 rows (each with 6 numbers) on each game. The winning 6 digit number (provably fair) is matched against the numbers you played. Matches are seen on the pay table (scroll down, middle tab)

To be honest, I've seen your site, but because I don't understand the concept and how to play, I didn't register on the lotto site. But since you came all the way to this thread to clear up any misunderstandings, I plan to sign up and learn how the lotto works.

Here is my latest big win!!! (and yes... I play on my own site )

It sounds funny, but it sounds like you enjoy the business and the game you have. Good luck to you and l0tt0.com

I am still too far from winning a lot of money or even the jackpot in many gambling games. To be close to a big win or jackpot requires great luck, which will only come to people who have that great luck. If we are not lucky, we will not be able to win any amount of money and we will not even be able to get even a small win. We must be aware that gambling requires luck in addition to skill and we can only play it and it's okay if we still hope that one day we can win a lot of money. But the important thing is that we can enjoy gambling as entertainment because who knows, it could bring us great luck.

Not even close, because the winnings obtained so far are still very normal winnings, but there was one parlay bet that used a free bet of $ 20 which almost gave me a win of more than $ 1000, if only one bet I chose did not lose, and that was a tennis match which is very close, only 1 game is missing for me to be able to win that $1000, and there are many more results from free bets that are lost because of just one match, and what is quite strange in my opinion is that the team or athlete performed well in the previous match but when I choose the team or These athletes all went the other way, so this taught me a lesson that there is no certainty of winning in sports betting, even if we bet on a team or athlete who hasn't lost because it could be the first loss after a winning streak.

That's pretty unfortunate and it is also a reminder of how luck matters in gambling because if you are not lucky enough, you will miss such opportunities even after going so close and I know how bad it feels after you see that you have missed an opportunity that could make a difference for you if you had hit it, but, what can be said or done, it's gambling at the end of the day, and we usually see that happening when we play slots where we miss jackpots with just a single item being misplaced after the spin.

I remember once I was playing HI-LO, and there was a jackpot if one had the outcome 9999 after choosing HI, and the outcome of my bet was 9998 which would have hit the jackpot if the last number was 9 as well, but, I wasn't lucky enough to hit it, it felt bad but I moved on, with a heavy heart.

I myself have been gambling for a long time but have never felt a jackpot or big win, and there is a friend of mine who does not know anything about gambling he saw me gambling and finally he understood then because he was curious he made a deposit to gamble and not for long he got the jackpot, I who have never felt a jackpot but only small wins that I always get. Here I think right with luck that gives a big win (jackpot).
Not everyone can get the jackpot easily and I have felt this, it's hard if we are the ones who are not lucky. Even beginners who are new to gambling can get a jackpot if great luck is on their side. So don't be surprised by the big win (jackpot) they get, it's because their luck helps them to get a big win.

I guess it's beginner's luck that often comes to those who have never gambled at all so it can make them continue gambling another day. And I think that's what ultimately makes many novice gamblers spend their time gambling without realizing that they have turned into someone who often gambles. We may only be able to see them get big wins when they start gambling, but we can't get big wins like them because our luck is different from theirs. And because we are more experienced than them, we also have to remind them not to chase big wins and start teaching them about self-control because if not, they will end up becoming addicted to gambling and it will be difficult to cure.

Didn’t have the experience to be so close like this on winning the jackpot, lottery seems not in favor to me but I do have a small experience in bingo which is not that big and its just a local bingo game so I don’t consider it. Hitting the jackpot in Gambling is like one in a million, it’s hard to tell and hard to achieve so once you are able to hit the jackpot, you have to celebrate it because you’re lucky enough to win it.

When it comes to winning, I think I'm not fortunate in terms of playing gambling because I haven't experience winning just like in simple betting games like color game and card games but I've experience the "so close in winning" everytime I play so I guess the favor is not for me and that's okay because I'm doing it for fun only and I know there's someone out there who really needs the prize than me.
