I know there's a lot of sports bettors here that are hoping they will hit a big time win in a short time, since we all want to have a life changing win but these people below are just so lucky.

It's 25 people in the list, but I will go with the top 10 for the sake of discussion only.

https://www.thepunterspage.com/biggest-sports-betting-wins/
1. Billy Walters – a successful $3.5 million bet
2. Vegas Dave – $2.5 million on a $140,000 bet
3. Steve Whiteley – £1.5 million on a £2 bet
4. Fred Craggs – £1 million on a £0.50 bet
5. Mike Futter – £800,000 on betting his own horse
6. James Adducci – $1.2 million on an $85,000 bet
7. Charles Barkley – $800,000 on a $500,000 bet
8. Anonymous punter – £585,000 on an £0.80 bet
9. Darren Yates – £550,000 on a £62 bet
10. Mick Gibbs – £500,000 on a £0.30 bet

Those that are in bold text are the kind of wins we like to achieve, with a little capital , we can turn our money into a huge amount.

How would you do that guys? do you consistently bet on parlay with big odds?

I have experienced being lucky in gambling when i was young,winning a Bingo Jackpot at the age of 17(actually it was illegal here to gamble at that age but since i have a friend in that outlet he allows me to buy cards)

from 4 dollars for 6 cards i have won more than 2,000 dollars and at that age?that is already a huge amount.

what I'm telling here is luck really comes once in a lifetime chances so when it comes lets treasure the moment and spend the money in rightful way.

what i did for the winning ?i pain my 2 semester in college and my parents are very proud of me.

I do bet but not often. I am not the kind of person that place a big bet on anything. I am afraid of losing but seeing people on the list with corresponding amount of winning is quite surprising for me. I can't believe that it is possible to earn that kind of amount through betting only. Maybe they win often than lose.

It is possible but very rare that it will happen. So if you are not lucky enough, you will not get that kind of winnings. But in sports betting, the chance is relatively high as compared to gambling games which are based on luck. Because if you are a fan of a particular sport and it is like you live and breathe with that sport, I believe you have good odds of winning.

You need extreme luck if you want to win big money from small bet, but if you are building your bankroll and bet on games where chances are good then you just need to be consistent in order to win most of the time. Apparently, gamblers loses more than they win but there are also gamblers who are exceptional than they can win in the long run, so that should be the target, it's not impossible so it can be achieve.

Losing $1 a thousand times in a hope to win $1k vs losing $1000 in a bet hope to win $2k is the same thing. The fact that you bet once a large amount of money doesn't improve your odds. There's no game where chances are better, except sports gambling where there is skill involved obviously.

well I think it's enough to experience losses like that it's better you try to do other games because in my opinion when you experience losses up to $1000 it's already very much and when you use that much capital for trading then you can get a lot of profit, gambling should can learn the gap first and as much as possible should be able to get a profit.

The Brisbane Broncos lost 46 - 8 last night making five losses from six starts to the season. People are now talking about there being some fixing going on, but regardless, I saw odds of 40:1 for them to win. Anyone rolling their wagers over week to week would end up with a big payout at the end of the season especially if the odds stretch out to 100+:1

I am not sure that if they can consistently win most of the time as we know, that those games will need to have luck. Besides that, they need to have a good source that can help them choose the right team. If they can select the right team, that will help to get the chance to win. But they can not always expect to win from every match because sometimes, the situations will not happen as what they expect.

Definitely all can do the to analyze on how to select a better team of chances in winning. There are considerations to make of course and that is how the team plays vs. other team plays. In comparison you can expect how a team could be advantage on their plays to which could give you insight on betting. The selections of a team before betting should also consider past games analyzing their weaknesses and stregths and to find out which team would really go out and become successful in winning.

We can get all of those parts of the analysis from many trusting sources that we can use to add more information about each team. If we can get the right info, we can have the opportunity to choose the teams, and that can help us to have a chance to win. We can have statistics of every player in the teams, which will use to check if their teams can be the winner or not. After we have the potential teams which can win, the next thing that we need to do is determine how much money we will use to place the bet.

These guys like the one in the list who bet big time does not rely on luck, they rely on their skills and they are confident that they can win.
Personally that is my principle when I am gambling in sports betting, this game can be won if you have the skills, therefore developing that skills for you to become successful is necessary.

So if you'll ask me, I'd rather be consistent in winning and be a professional gambler than hitting one time big win which might still lose again in gambling.
When you are consistent, you make consistent money in gambling as well, so that's the benefit.

I am sure they have skills to gamble because they can analyze each team who will show. They can gather so much information from many sources, which can help them get the right teams. Yes, I believe that some of them can become successful in sports betting because they have all the things needed to win the money.

I agree that we should consistent in gambling as you say because that will give us more chances to win, and we can also have an opportunity to be a professional gambler in the future. But we need to be careful because gambling still dangerous.

Losing $1 a thousand times in a hope to win $1k vs losing $1000 in a bet hope to win $2k is the same thing.

Same thing if you look at the numbers, but not if you consider how you feel when you lose.
Imagine losing $1k in single bet, I think that hurts, but losing $1 usd, I think I can sleep with that, besides, not all of us are big bettors, most of us bet small and aim big because we don't really have the capacity to bet or risk that big.

No dream is too big and no dreamer is too small

Quote from: leea-1334 on July 24, 2020, 08:06:27 AM

Sportsbet.io like to share those "small bet into big ones", they just shared one recently with a guy who bet on 10 outcomes including the Arsenal win over Manchester City if I am not mistaken it was 3000x. They give something like 15% or 30% boost to many multis, so I guess people really love it. Nice to bet $1 and get that much!

The boost was really very attractive, that's why I like their site and sometimes I also do some parlay on live betting and it adds up the excitement.
I even go beyond 3000 total odds on my parlay, but I never got too lucky, maybe my time will come and the winner you shared was very lucky, I'm sure he was already betting parlays before and his time has just come.

I just now read the whole article and I was amazed to read that there are others in this list who actually wagered small amount and won. I will call them lucky ones as rarely it happens that someone wins a huge amount by just wagering a few pence.

This is better if true. But the Large wins (millions of dollars) for one small bet is abit too extreme in my opinion. I see similar opportunities(in local fiat) on national television lotto or as text messages... and I'm beginning to think that the rewards should be split to more people... especially if they bettors are not that rich.

Do you think the article was not true? The chance was low but the way they get that huge win was not just they wagered only a penny then win, that's not the case. They win because they bet maybe automatically and we never know how many times they bet before they hit that jackpot.

Not really, these things are supposed to happen that is why they made such huge amount with few dollar bets.Gambling is not a donation program so we can't expect much people to get the benefits from that money if this was imposed then people will really lose their interest on playing such games.The huge reward amount is the real reason why people still bet on it.

The number 10 is just pure luck. With odds of 1,666,666/1, if I'm on his situation I will not expect for too much on it. Just see the odds. That is even lower than your chances of winning in a lottery I think but still he is quite lucky enough to get the prize Cheesy

.

What kind of event can give such a high multiplier?
It's like predicting who score a goal, and the exact minute of the goal happened. I don't think it can give x1,666,666 multiplier though. Sadly, I lost my worldcup bet slip, IIRC it only gave x100,000ish.

If you keep betting, you will probably win, that's the only thing you have to do.

The probability of winning even if you bet every day for years straight is so low you will most likely end up losing everything you've gambled rather than winning anything at all. Besides luck, there's not much you can do to improve your chances - maybe sports betting like you're playing, but even there you still have a luck factor in the game..

Yups andd that is what those winners got,they have won because of extreme luck,imagine this is once in a billion chance and they are the one who got the jackpot?

we are all hoping but none has the opportunity,But those listed are the winner.

wish next names to be listed ,our names will reflect .

True, but having an inkling that someone (or something) is going to win is sometimes the driving motivation behind placing a bet with a remarkably high return.

e.g. The Brisbane Broncos Rugby League team have lost five of their last six games, and there's no confidence they will win tonight either. Do I bet on a seemingly sure thing (not winning), or take a risk they will win a game? Either way the longer they loose, the higher the odds become which makes it more worth while placing a small bet for a big return.

Wowww. Those are indeed lucky. Usually, big wins happen when you wagered big amount also. And you're right that winning big by wagering small does not happen always. I, myself, like to wager just small amounts only. I mean, amount that I can afford to lose. But, I don't win huge amount yet. Well, who knows? I might be included in that list in the future. Grin

If you keep betting, you will probably win, that's the only thing you have to do.
These people especially on the parlay winners, they are not good enough, you know what they need? they just need to be lucky enough.

I'm betting in sports so not because I am inspired with what I see, but because I am ambitious and I love thrill of betting a parlay, although chance are lower compared to straight up betting.

Luck is indeed the major thing needed when you do like to win up these parlays but you can just make random bets and do take desperation bets since you do like to hit up the pot.

Luck wont work out if a gambler do have that kind of mindset.Its always been suggested to have a better grasp on what you are doing on making up selections on teams or players

which is pretty norm for sportbetting though.
