Dare you admit the most you Won or Lost on a single horse.

Or the most you Won or Lost in a single day.

Won £85 without laying oout a penny on the bet.  Quite a few years ago ( EVERYTHING seems to be "quite a few years ago these days!) was doing uniformed security in a hospitality tent at Wincanton .... the punters were getting well oiled and one stagggers up to me and says if I name a horse in the next race he'd put a bet on for me. What I know about horses can be written in arabic on a gnat's foreskin --- anyway, I picked at random from the card ... don't know what he put on it to win .... and it won !!!!!  He split with me 50/50 and I was £85 better off  ( plus the fortune they overpaid me for the day !! )  :D

I once won £8.3 million on the lottery....................but lost it all at a Monte Carlo casino ...............the same night.
That is how I came to be driving a Vauxhall Omega.....
If only I hadn't gone to the Casino that night ..............with those five sexy dolly birds........Still we all make mistakes. ::) ::) :y :y :y

Most I've won was £3000 a few years ago on a tri-cast (predicting 1st, 2nd, 3rd in a race)

Most I've lost in a day is £94

A couple of years ago I was doing a get rich quick betting scheme. Basically you doubled your bet each time you lost, I had £750 on a horse after losing quite a few times, luckily it won and i've only ever had a few quid on the National since ::)

I dont bet usually, except if i go horse racing or to the dogs.
Tho i did loose £12 today on the National...

I usually plan on loosing about £200 if i go horse racing or £100 if i goto the dogs.

I usually loose  ;D But if i come home with loosing less then its been a better day/night out than its already been  :)

I dont go very often......I just look at it as a day/evening out  :y

Dont know the most i have won.....but i think i came home with about £150 more than i went with once.

goodwood last yr i went with 500 came home with about 250 and thats after winning 240 in 1 race, booked again for july, cant wait.
then at lingfield 2 yrs ago i lost about 450 1 day and won about 700 the next week. i dont gamble unless i go to a race meet. which is rare now. i dont play fruit machines either.
