What is the highest amount of money you've ever bet in a single game?

[darkangel11]

The highest bet I made was with all my friends so it was a collective bet, long time ago. It was FIFA 2010 and we bet on Spain in the final match and won. Each of us dropped close to $100 into the pool and there were 4 of us, so it was a large bet for all of us. We were students back then so that kind of money was what we'd be spending o 2 weeks worth of food. We were pretty happy but in total, looking from today's perspective, it wasn't a big bet. I don't bet like that anymore, I'm happy with $20 nowadays, even though I have 100 times more money than I had in 2010 and that $20 is probably what I'm ready to lose.

Hi guys, I don't know if something like this have been discussed here in the past, a thread a I previously commented on made me curious about this, so I decided to ask here.

It's a pretty forward and simple question, which is...
1. What is the highest amount of money you've bet on a single game in the past?

The highest that I've had recently was around $199 I know for some it isn't much.

2. Did you win or lose that game?

I did lose that round it was on a crash game and the round ended at x0

3. Was it an amount you were actually ready to comfortably lose?

I would be lying if I say yes, but honestly it started with a $30 and I would go all in each time that I would bet, to the point that it got to $199 and it was my last round I was actually going to cash it out, I just decided to play one last game since the previous rounds ended with small multiplier I thought that it would be safe to bet and cash out with small multiplier too but the round ended with x0.

To answer your question, the highest amount of money that I have bet on a single game in the past $100. This bet was on slot games in 2023. Basically, trying out a new online casino being promoted on the forum. Yes, I won or 4x my bet. It was a happy day for me. And I sure spent the money on something vey profitable.

To answer the third question, I already knew the drill. I gambled with money that I could afford to lose and even after I had won. I didn't gamble again for close to 3 to 4 weeks. Because gambling during that period felt like using bits of the money won there again. This was how I thought about it.

$3000? You really the big man bro, If you win, but unfortunately you lose 

I would be embarrassed if I had to tell you about my biggest bet because I have never bet big in a single game. My biggest bet was only $100, but at first it was only $50. I wanted to end my gambling session because it was late and I was sleepy, I bet my entire balance on blackjack around $50 and I won, next I was all-in once again and planned to withdraw my balance if I won, I bet all-in $100 and of course I lost. I couldn't sleep thinking about the loss, so I decided to deposit another $50 and go all in, but I lost again. Finally I turned off the phone and went to sleep

Lol that's one intense story you got there, it sounds like one of the main red flag and warning sign was that you were losing track of time and feeling tired but you still decided to continue gambling, that's one big red flag that things were getting out of control and failing to acknowledge these red flags would lead you to jeopardy.
Although I can understand why it was hard for you to sleep after such an experience because I've been there before. It's easy to get caught up in the emotion of gambling and it's even easier to get carried away with chasing losses.
But there are so many red flags and it's easy to see them when they come, except you let your  emotions cloud your judgement, and when that happens, it'll be hard to make any sensible decisions.

My biggest bet in one game was $250, but that was the buy freespin bonus feature on a slot machine, I bought the freespin bonus on buffalo king megaways slot machine after I got maxwin from $20 buy bonus freespin. I was just curious what it would be like to buy a bonus feature with a big stake, so I did, and it was only a one-time purchase. I don't remember how much the free spins were but if I'm not mistaken I got about 80% of my buy in so it wasn't too bad and I was pretty happy with it.

[Unbunplease]

I don't think you should risk more than $100 at the beginning of the game. The higher the stakes, the more likely you are to lose your bank quickly. That's why I bet a little - up to 100 dollars. And then the size of my bets depends on the success of my strategy and how much I managed to win. So, you will go further, you will go farther

300 usd I think? It was pretty recent since back then I think the max bets I did was $100 or $200 as the biggest. It was with the 2023 World's quarterfinals with GenG vs BiliBili. Voted for GenG, ended up losing 2-3. I was so sad about the loss back then that I didn't really bet afterwards even though T1 had a pretty solid and amazing run throughout the quarters and semis, could've recouped some of my losses if I tried to bet them winning on the finals.

Definitely not an amount I was comfortable losing. I guess it came to be as a reward since there was a pretty hefty bonus at my work at the time so I was like, hell, why not. Blew it all at once lmao.

I couldn't recall the exact amount, but I know the highest amount i've risked in a single bet was around the hundreds ($200-$500) and it was for an esports match. It reached that point because my bankroll grew so much after a perfect week with only a few losses. My bet won, and it was close as the team was only slight favorites by the bookies.

It's an amount that i'm not prepared to lose, and I only pulled that risky move because it was mostly made up of my wins. There's always that confidence building up once you start winning a lot and it pushed me to place one of the biggest bets that could've made a big hole in my bankroll.

Once and at that time it happened because I was emotional while playing dice, and at that time I was not married and I was fighting with my girlfriend.
I used $75 to play dice and at that time I played in an emotional state because I always remembered the fight that happened with my girlfriend while playing, and from $75 I won around $600 if I'm not mistaken. And strangely these emotions can play a role in my dice game and I win more often than I lose and I also always double my bets. And when I remembered his hurtful words, I became more emotional and when my winnings reached almost $600, I went all in and ended up losing it all.
And for me now, losing $20-$30 in gambling is a big deal for me. Because nowadays I only bet a few dollars on the weekend just for fun after 5 days of tiring work. There is another reason because I already have a family that I have to prioritize, and currently I only gamble when there is an urge to gamble by spending a few dollars on the weekend.

1. $500 on Gates of Olympus (Buying bonus).
2. Lose few times and won once which cover the previous losses.
3. Yes, because the money I use to make that bets came from profit, I managed to make $2,500+ profit from few tens dollar deposit.

After that time I never made any bigger bet, because there is no more luck for me to win big from small deposit. Betting more than $50 in one bet is just above my betting limit. I'll only able to bet over $50 when I won big from my small deposit as I will never bet more than that from my initial deposit.

[Agbamoni]

The highest amount i have ever used in gambling was about $4. Back then was 2000 naira in gambling am not certain though but it was withing this rang that i used. I was not earning much because i was still a student. So, i took out some money from my monthly upkeep sent to me by my parents to gamble. Although that was the period i started gambling after my friend introduced me into football betting.

I lost in that game. But i didn't feel bad at all. Since i understood before time that i may win or lose. Definitely 2000 naira wasn't an amount i could lose without thinking about it later. That amount was enough to buy some textbooks and feeding for some days back then. However, i was comfortable losing it because at that period i had enough at my disposal.

My highest bet in a game, where I bet in an NBA finals 2017 where the match is against GSW and Cleveland, I bet approximately $300 dollars on the side of GSW because, based on their plays, they more likely have higher chances of winning, and the game was too thrilling because of the game and also because I bet a huge amount of money, and yes, luckily I won because GSW is the champion of that NBA finals that year. It is my first and last time I will bet such an amount in a single game, and how much am I willing to bet right now? Only $100–$200 is my limit, my lowest and highest amount that I could bet on. I may have won the higher amount I bet, but still, the feeling of anxiety and worrying is not what I like. I would rather bet another huge amount if I'm sure about the outcome of the match.

If counted in one session, the most I used to gamble was more than $500 in the past and yes, of course I lost hahaha, it was very annoying and felt quite lost because I was carried away by the atmosphere and emotions that wanted to win and return the money I had lost the first $300 and realized again after losing more because of the abisi.

Yes if you count the day, maybe more than 1000 dollars on that day, yes the regret is quite deep because with that amount of money in my country can already buy a motorcycle to take a walk LOL, maybe if I use that money to buy SHIB, I am today a Milliarder. LOL

It was really stressing to lose on game after putting in more key time to prepare the basic odds. The space is broad, you know that means, there's enough money to go round, exactly more reason why we shouldn't get involvement in problems or physical fights, I do my best to avoid these problems but they just keep appearing on my screen and you know I'm helpless in this situation. When we single-handedly fund our betting account, we just become more careful with the system because even the slightest opportunities does bring problem.

[Hirose UK]

Each gambler will have their own source of income and of course the amount of income for each gambler will always be different, after all, each gambler will have their own needs too.
Regarding gambling, there will always be limit or nominal amount of money that is intended for gambling, we will never be able to find more dominant similarity in context like this.
There are those who really have fresh money to gamble in large amounts and can increase it to any amount, there are also those who only limit the amount of money to relatively small amount.
And the most important thing is that we can accept that the money intended for gambling must be lost, this is must for every gambler.

It's a pretty forward and simple question, which is...
1. What is the highest amount of money you've bet on a single game in the past?

I myself used to be gambler who was quite careless because I was always trying to chase victory, but the amount of money bet in one match or game was no more than $30 to $50.
But if we talk about longer period of time in each betting session, it will be bigger because in each game or each match there is an increase in the amount I make.

Win or lose, it is clear that losing will only be the most guaranteed result so that in every gambling session there will always be a greater number of losses, this is why I have made mistakes quite often in the past by trying to recover losses and increase bets.

If it is the amount of money that I have spent and have really lost, then like it or not I have to be ready to accept that it will be lost, only when the amount is too large there is desire to be able to get back the money that has been lost.

I believe I'm understanding where you're coming from. Seems the risk of losing money isn't the only problem but also the mental stress and anxiety that accompanies gambling, especially when you're losing, sometimes you can't help but feel like you're being targeted or taken advantage of.
Even the ads that bombards your phone from a gambling site while you're gambling, makes it even difficult for you to enjoy the game, and it's almost impossible to focus on the fun and excitement when you're feeling stressed out by these experience.

let me answer a few of your questions

•I don't remember the biggest amount I ever bet in one game but I remember recently I often bet around $ 100 on each spin in roulette games and also in sports betting but at that time I was lucky so I continued to bet the same amount the same.
•of course win, as I said before I bet $100 like I was on a lucky streak for several sessions and finally I lost again even though my winnings had reached almost $700+ but ended up losing half of the winnings.
•yep, of course I have given a definite budget for betting every week and the budget actually just the remainder of last week's budget which was a small win and I add to the following week's budget until the budget for gambling becomes more.

whatever I say, this just about experience, not giving examples or advice to anyone and remain a responsible gambler, bet with money you can afford to lose and most importantly, don't be tempted by big wins.

[michellee]

Using more than $100 to place a bet in a single game or more is not a good idea. We should place a bet using the money we can afford. But if you think you can afford to lose more than $100, you can do that. But don't regret it if you lose all of the money in a short time.

1. $1 is the highest amount of money I've used to bet on a single game in the past.
2. I can only reach my break even using that bet amount.
3. Right now, I can only afford to use less than $0.3 to lose.

I can't afford to use a big amount to gamble because I often lose in gambling games.

Betting is risky, we have to make sure there's enough reasons for our profits and losses. I was very interested in gambling but it turns out it comes with repercussions, losing streaks was the results and I wasn't ready to start crying over my heavy losses. The huge money gambled on a single game was $500 bucks from my end. I wasn't afraid because confidence surrounded me and there's no how you would tell me that Chelsea will lose against Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League final, though City dominated the game fulltime but always failed to win.

1. What is the highest amount of money you've bet on a single game in the past?

My highest amount of money that use to bet on a single game is 375$. It’s almost equivalent to 75% of my monthly salary at work.

2. Did you win or lose that game?

Luckily I win this bet with 250$ profit. I made a thread for this bet before due to the intense experience that I feel that time. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5471636.msg63053425#msg63053425

3. Was it an amount you were actually ready to comfortably lose?

Around 1$ to 5$ is my comfortable amount. Any amount above that will make me enter to serious mode when betting. The last time I lose around 100$ makes me tilted to betting using the highest amount of bet that I mention on Q1. I rarely bet using significant amount but I always do hardcore whenever I’m on dire situation.
