Daily reminder to not fall for OPs tactics. He tried getting me to place bets for him, so he clearly does not have the funds himself. All of his posts are pure fiction. He even tried to convince me that he knew a member of Djokovic’ crew personally  Grin

~ I will post some of my losses soon. I placed a $400 bet on 1616 odds for a $646,000 return. It was 20 legs and I lost on the very first leg when Stan Wawrinka lost a tennis match as a heavy favourite. The remaining 19 legs won which was depressing but I got over it after a few days.

Your stories make me think about resuming activity in multi betting. I remember several years ago I already practiced multi bets, but because of high risks and constant losses I gave it up. Of course I can't afford making bets of $300-400, but once a month I can try my fortune for $100-150.

Do you analyze all upcoming matches yourself or do you use someone else's information?

I like your story because is it on point and not like the usual storytellers that would want you to go extra ordinary miles to later eat from you. Well you have a prompt explanation which is an eye opening for us to always based out gambling or bets on future game because that is when the urge or emotion will not intrude because it is not a current game that you will be looking for how to surely make a winning with the least attempt. I was once playing like this until I stopped and starting betting on fast money I will bet and get result within 2 to 3 days intervals.

Apart from birth and death, nothing else is written on the forehead of the human being.  Fate changes based on human actions. If one wants to win at gambling then only his luck cannot win him like if you want to go somewhere then you must have to get into a car and drive it to the destination. but if you just get in the car and don't drive then the closed car will never reach your destination. In this case your luck will not help you. Similarly, to win in gambling, you must first understand gambling well and become an expert, only then you will be able to make accurate predictions and win big amounts. In that case you can make your own destiny
The definition of luck doesn't just come without trying to do something hard, so luck in gambling will come when you are sure of making the right predictions and analysis to choose the potential for a team/fighter to win sports betting, but luck in another definition is that the gambler gets to win the jackpot without predicted beforehand and just casually chose to play the bet for entertainment and then luck was on his side to get the big bet. So luck at the second level is not achieved for everyone but luck at the first level will favor anyone who has the expertise and experience to determine bets based on research and choose bets from a high chance ratio of winning.

@OP do I get it right that if a single bet failed your entire bet would have failed? That is obviously case correct? Apart from the UFC fight that was voided, how do you handle your emotions when it comes down to the last couple of choices you made? 19 is such an insane number of bets. 7 would be crazy already if you hit them all as we know that often times one team surprises you in a bad way. 19, I can tell you I would swallow some sleeping pills before the last two games start. But I guess at some point you could hedge your bets in a reasonably, couldn't you? Congratulations!

Yep, that's correct. If even a single leg lost I would have lost the entire bet.

I try to bet with no emotion, once I place the bet it is out of my control so I don't worry. The only time I was concerned was the Los Angeles Dodgers future. They were down 3-1 against a very strong team and they came back to win the series 4-3.

Your result is very impressive!you have won a very good sum and I admire you.That's what it means to approach the game with a serious analysis of all events.I most often just bet on the victory of the team without additional conditions,but your result is very motivating to get involved in sports events much more.

I will also say that OP is very lucky because some do this and don't get that luck to win, it's only when we have good results about gambling we come onboard to motivate others in other to encourage them they could also make it through, i just don't know why winning isn't a consistent thing like how many gamblers do loose when they gambles, but the two altogether blend the perfect match for the gambling experience, we loose to win and also win and loose sometimes.
Thats how gambling works and thats how as it should be.If you are winning then consider yourself that lucky and we know that gambling is for fun and winning is really just a bonus.It is really just that unsual for someone to make small amounts into huge big hits and this is why this type or kind of condition could really make most of people do become impulsive towards their gambling habit or decisions.
Some could stop and make use of those winning amounts on the right and sensible way but most of the time people would really be spending up those money back into the casino or whatever
they are dealing with.Why? because they would really be hoping to get even more which it isnt surprising for most people would be having this kind of approach.

Damn, not sure how I'm just now seeing this post.  Well first off, congratulations on winning such a massive amount of money.  Not enough to quit work or anything, but certainly enough to fund a good chunk of your retirement as well as buy yourself some nice things like perhaps a new home and car.  I only wish I had made the same bet.  You must have beat some insane odds though, I mean turning 300 into 400k + is just insane.  Congrats.

op you are a genius.  You managed to make a correct prediction so you won such a big jackpot. congratulations to you for this. But since you have won such a big prize, learn to save it.  Remember freedom is harder to defend than to gain

Legendary parlay hit op. Personally, I am a big fan of parlays and my biggest win was around $1500 so far by wagering just a couple of cents. Luck sided with you in a big way and choosing Sportsbet was smart.

However, I disagree with your statement about how you feel it's close to impossible winning from casino games. There are tons and tons of examples out there that prove that the probability of winning big from casino games is just slightly lower than sports betting.

Luck is the most important factor in casino games and sports betting.

You're right when you say luck is the most important factor in both casino and sports betting but I guarantee if you placed 100 $1 bets on casino and 100 $1 bets on sports the latter would be more profitable.

Another factor is an average sports match lasts around two hours so if you watch the match live like I do and don't place any other bets you only lose that one wager. How many spins or bets can you place on slots/casinos in a two hour period?
I've played both slots/casinos and sports for close to a decade and in my personal experience sports is much more profitable and it isn't even close.

Perhaps you will have a desire to start a thread here on the forum where you would share your current bets and predictions for matches, I think it was interesting for many who are involved in sports betting but do not really understand the current state and potential of teams.

That would be very lovely if the OP will indeed share some of his early predictions on a certain game on a certain sports. Not just us but I bet there would be a lot of bettors on this forum who would love to see your early picks/predictions, we never know, we might agree with it and place the same bets like the OP does. Having that huge victory is no ordinary luck, for me, that can be called as a once in a lifetime experience.

It seems like you have gone through a lot of trials and errors to make your betting journey successful. That was such an inspiring story and based on what you experienced, we can conclude that having enough knowledge of our choice of sports would be an advantage especially if we don't bet based on our emotions. It's necessary that we like and we have complete understanding of certain sports before betting and risking our funds. That was a good and impressive strategy.

Outcomes will be surely different depending on your luck in the first place whether your bet would last a few games or would it be gone in an instant. You can only spin multiple times if you would be able to manage your capital efficiently and as long as you are being lucky to win some atleast. In sportsbetting indeed it would be time consuming to watch a full game or fight, but the logic behind this, is simply player's preference on what he/she enjoys more. Maybe you came to the conclusion that one is more profitable because of what happened in a certain period of time you were playing which does not happen on a daily basis and to most of the players.Both are simply profitable and only varies depending on one's luck. period.

Great wins. Congrats OP from those. They're huge!

By the way, I'm more interested that sportsbet.io has an identical business name to the casino you're playing at, sportsbet.com. I thought both of these are just the same, but when I check, it seems that they aren't.
I'm intrigued to know if it is legal to have similar business name with other businesses in similar platform, the only difference between was their top-level domain, .io & .com. Anyone here that has knowledge about it?

I hope all gamblers are like you, you are very lucky, just real talk. If I look at the history of your gambling story, I can say that this is not a barber's story, but a true story. If I was one of the friends you offered who didn't listen to you, for sure I would feel regret and envy you.

         But a friend of yours was also lucky to bet 100$ and now it is also a big help to him and he is also very grateful to you for believing in and trusting you. Congratulations as well as those who have posted here before on the topic you have created.
Of course, all gamblers want to feel like he who has won that big win. But sadly, we don't have as good luck as him and can only win occasionally. Supposedly after his friends could see what he got, they immediately followed and copied what he bet because he had proven that he had managed to win several times with big wins.

I think his lucky friend who bet $100 will get hooked and ask him what other bets he made because he wants to follow suit and win a lot of money. And hopefully, OP can win big again on the next bet.

Hahaha, it's just that we don't have the same luck as OP, it's just bad luck most of the time but we're happy and we don't feel bad about it even if we lose.

I just hope we have a friend like him who is good at betting like he plays. Gamblers who win big gambling prizes are really envious, to be honest it's only 20k$ I'm so happy to experience that, that's why I only win small amounts gambling.
Yeah, right. We can only imagine if we managed to win as much money as @OP. But that's okay, I think we can win it one day Grin

You can try to find friends like him from your social media accounts and maybe there is a friend of yours who often plays gambling but he doesn't tell it to your other friends. Or the OP could just share the stakes he placed so we can try them too hahaha

Yeah as a gambler, we all wish that we can earn a massive profit like the OP but unfortunately, we are not blessed to experience it. Most of the times we are only losing and if there are times we are lucky, we can only bring home a small amount of profits with us but that was still better than nothing at all.

I think it also has to do with the guts and the greed to continue pushing for more. His other friends are still winning and even if they didn't win big as the OP, I don't think they will ever regret. They will in fact be proud of their selves because they can be able to win on their own. Not unlike to others out there who are only good at depending on someone's ability.

I categorically disagree with you. No matter how well you know about sports betting, how likely is it that such a multi-bet will give you a win?
The probability of winning is very low, no matter how well prepared you are.

But I'm still happy for you and your big win! Grin
If you've read the previous $1.14 million loss thread after the opposing team came back with a new strategy to snatch victory then the conclusion is that no bet prediction can be expected to win, not all odds will work but luck matters most in gambling. This review thread is different because the OP made a million dollar win but I hope he should be careful for his next bet and consider all the downsides before losing everything.
