Maybe if the loss part is still a sore subject just refrain from posting anything about that, I am just curious to see what people will say.

If you'd like to, please comment the most you have ever won gambling, please describe what you bet on, for how much, and the winnings (for fun tell the story).

I'd like to know how it changed your life (if that was the case), what did you do with your winnings? Would you have done anything differently now looking back? Do the same for the losses if you choose to.

As gamblers we have to accept that losing is a part of the game therefore we have to be comfortable talking about our losses as we meant learn something from the story that'll help us to become a responsible gambler as there's something that always makes us to lose when gambling. It could be addiction or greediness therefore we shouldn't avoid talking about our losses. I have had my biggest lost when I lost $800 from multiple bets in a day, I was revenging my previous losses when it happened.

My biggest winnings was when I won over $3000 from playing sport betting, I picked different teams from different leagues to increase my odds and I used $50 to play the game and it gives me $3000. I have had similar wins but this amount on the day I won means alot to me as I needed money that time and just gambled without any hopes and I was lucky to have won the amount and it was used for my expenses.

I won a huge jackpot (Max Win) on a slot, but when I calculated my total deposits, it did not recover my losses from all those deposits.

You might think that a huge jackpot is life changing, but first calculate how much you gambled in total and then subtract your win from that. You might find that you are way in the red, when you look at the bigger picture.

I've lost about $1k in a single night when I was still nee in online gambling.  It was with roulette which is a pure luck game. I was frustrated that time which made me bet continuously and ended up with nothing, was also equivalent with my 1 month salary back then which really made me struggle and became a lesson. I took a break from gambling and moved with sportsbetting. My biggest profit is $3k I guess, and that's for more than two months of having quite of a good win-lose ratio with my bets but I'm still happy with it. If we would look in a deeper context, you could really lose big amount in an instant and will more often win smaller amount that what you have lost. Luck is not something we have control of. Up until now, I am limiting the amount I am engaging in gambling to avoid the unwanted outcome. Winning is surely difficult therefore to be preventive of loss is important by means of self discipline and regulation. You could be lucky indeed and we don't have the same fate.

I have a friend of mine who won $50k in a single night with slots. Also a family friend who won the lottery with big reward. It is really envious however we know how gambling works. Not because other people won big amount, it will be guaranteed to all of us already. It depends on your luck, but pushing it won't be of any help.

Wow! 1k loss and 3k winnings, thats pretty good! Hopefully some of that luck from your friends will rub off on you! If you have been on a gambling streak it is always a good idea to step back for a time and reassess yourself, especially if you are depending on the income to live. I hope you win big buddy!

First, I'd like to say that I don't gamble frequently and I play sport betting mostly. I can't remember the exact year but it was my newbie days as a gambler. I played 4 matches draw with $3, it turned out green, and I won about $350. As an inexperienced gambler, I started gambling recklessly and I lost everything to the bookies. I'm not proud of it and I don't feel bad about it because I learnt my lessons and I'm a now a better gambler.

The maximum amount that I have won has been 160usd in dice, but the maximum amount that I have lost has been like 300usd in the same game , after that loss is when I started to see the things of the loos casino with another way of thinking, I started looking for more ways to play, strategies, I saw a lot of strategies, I started reading more articles, I saw a lot of bitcointalk threads about games, from the Ann threads, very Few users give very detailed strategies, and that's what What I was looking for most, there are few players and there are many who Speak , Perhaps the experiences of some are of much use to others.

My experience is clear, I have lost more than I have won, I have not seen another correct way to win nor have I seen another way to be able to do things better, it is always difficult to win in caissons, there is no way to Let's be very profitable, only in sports Betting and those who know, I don't know much about sports in a technical way, I am guided by what others bet en masse.

I actually don't remember how many wins and losses I had while gambling, but if I look at the statistics on my gambling account, my wins are much less than my losses, so I think there's nothing interesting to share, after all I'm just a small gambler so it's hard To tell you about the wins I got, it doesn't look like much like other gamblers, I actually only make gambling a game for me to have fun, not to make money, so I never thought about remembering my losses and wins while gambling.

But there is a little story not long ago I won $200 and it was big enough for me my gambling winnings, I happened to get free money from a gambling site and then I bet all the money with a multiplier of 2.00x hitting several times in the Crash game so I could get more My win came from $25 free money from a gambling site, but for me the win didn't mean anything that I aimed for and wanted, I just played according to my belief and self-confidence, nothing more than that, so I got the win and besides the money free money won't make me chase losses even if I lose, so I wouldn't be a brave gambler if it weren't for free money from gambling sites.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills
Still remember the biggest win in sports betting with 10+ multibets (not going to mention the betting numbers) which is obviously higher odds then the chances of winning are greater, you can say lucky because the multibet was won because I know it will be very rarely won by anyone unless he is an analyst in football.

The slot has won a large amount but this is not too often more lost in the slot but the game here is always addictive if you lose continuously.

I don't keep track of how much I've earned from gambling, but I feel like I've lost more than I've won, which isn't a record that's required because I know gambling should be fun.

I can't remember how much I've won or lost, when it comes to gambling, they're temporary memories to me that's not worth storing in your mind to reminisce from time to time, it's a really good memory to win but you're gambling so that win probably isn't enough to offset the losses so as to create some sort of balance. Losing? That's definitely not worth remembering because doing so would lead me to regret and and frustrating feelings that I should've just stayed down and not gambled the money, there's also the fact that I might also be doing lots of hindsights about that lost money and I don't like that, but if I can estimate and guess with the factor of my luck, it could be a possibility that I might be not win a lot of money in a game but most likely have lost a lot, just like any casual gamblers out there.

There are a lot of topics about losses and wins in gambling. If you just explore the forum more, you will see that there are even repetitive topics about gambling being the reason for losing money. Well,  there's nothing to expect in gambling; there are no winners in gambling, except for those who are really lucky or just luck sided them at some point in their lives. 

In terms of losses in my entire gambling, I can't say as I don't remember it, but maybe a loss in a day. I experience losing a total of $500 in just one day, and after that, I don't let myself waste that kind of money, so I learn to control and limit myself. And for the win, maybe my highest win that I can't forget is approximately $2000, which is a really huge amount that helps me a lot in terms of investing.

Getting the best wins can improve our lives because we can use the big winnings well. But it depends on how well we can use the winning money because many gamblers who win a lot of money need to remember to allocate their winnings to their living needs.
If I get that big win, I will allocate it to all the needs to improve my life. I can start a business or several with the winnings, providing more income for me.
But most gamblers rarely get big wins and only gamblers with great luck can have that chance. We don't need to chase big wins because that is very difficult.

Lightning network is good with small amount of BTC
I think most of us here have lost so much in gambling all throughout the years that they are playing. And no amount of winnings will ever recoup that lost, unless you win the lottery.
You will be a good gambler. Or let me say you would have become a good gambler by now. Most of us are not making profit but losing to gambling sites and that is just what it is. People that know this know that they should avoid using huge amount of money to gamble and not to depend on gambling as a means of daily/weekly or monthly income. Since I have been gambling, I lose than win.

As for me: The most i've ever won gambling is also the most i've ever lost gambling! Because it all happened at the same exact time. I actually have and old thread telling this story that I will dig up and post the link: Here.

I think most of us here have lost so much in gambling all throughout the years that they are playing. And no amount of winnings will ever recoup that lost, unless you win the lottery. I known someone who won big in the casinos, like close to $200,000, but he tell me the story that he had been gambling since mid 90's. So he has been in this game for so long that even if he had won that amount, if he had to total everything, he will still be negative.

And we all know a saying that everyone losses in gambling and that's true.

So even if we say that we have won this "X" amount, I still think that if we can calculate it throughout, still a big L. And sometimes me and my friends will joke that with the money that we lost in the casinos, we could have own one of those pillars standing there,  Grin.

If it is my highest lost on a game or on a sit, I have lost $150 in my local currency, and I would not forget that day because the money was meant for something important in my life, but I used it to gamble and after losing the money, I have to face the consequences of my action, which was a regrettable one. I was thinking that I could double the money unknown to me that gambling is not like what I think it is.

My wins are also small, and I don't think that I have been lucky enough to win an amount that I can keep the memories in my head. However, small wins should also be appreciated, and since I am not gambli g anymore to double my money, whatever amount that I win, I am cool with it, and if I don't win, no big deal.

x1500 was my highest multiplier but I bet in a small amount only.
x170 was my highest win in slots. After that, I did not bet on slots again because I was too scared that the game would get back what I won.  Grin

Highest loss, hmm this is not easy to remember but an accumulated loss is a big amount. I would not even say it because I just feel stupid about all the mistakes that I've made especially at the times when I got so eager to get my revenge while chasing my losses and pressed the bet button in Plinko rapidly. The Plinko balls rained down like heavy rain. One of my biggest regrets because I know RTP doesn't work like that. Afterward, I didn't do that anymore, trying to control my anger whenever I was on a losing streak. Or, I'd rather switch games and see to it that the risk is lower so that maybe I could win back my losses.

Basically I am a football gambler, I've lost most times as much as I've won most times. My losses obviously will be way higher than the number of times have won, that's gambling for me. However the number of times I've lost gambling have been so frustrating and sometimes painful, but yet I still try to manage my losses and strategy my next betting slip, because consistency and strategy makes you win big in gambling and am testimony to that.

There is one good thing about gambling,  there is no doubt about if the fact that sometimes we encounter losses and it sorely painful, however sometimes our staking powers are not always much but trust me, when you get a big win, it can actually cover for the times you've lost.

I myself always gamble on slots, therefore only in this gambling game did I lose and win, but clearly I lost more than I won. but that doesn't matter because we should be able to accept the fact that the home side has a big advantage. I have experienced both big wins and big losses and what is unique is that it happened in one day. Maybe it was because there was such a strong fact of luck in slot gambling that it was able to turn my situation around that day.

At 10pm I almost lost more than $500 of gambling, and at that time I really lost control of myself, when I lost I didn't give up and continued gambling by depositing money again and again up to $500. and at that time I was still losing, in desperation I borrowed money from a friend by borrowing $50, miraculously luck was on my side where that $50 made me win $4000, I didn't believe it but it was true, without thinking I immediately cash in those winnings. and learn from experience that gambling should not be done excessively, what I did was excessive, it's just that in the end luck was on my side, but of course this is not recommended because everyone's share of luck is different.

I don't know for sure what type of gambling I win the most, whether it's sports betting or other games, but for now I win sports bets more often and that's only in single bets. However, if the question is in which game did I ever get a big win, then I still remember it was a type of slot game because I won the maximum win at that time. But apart from the biggest wins, slot games are also the games that beat me the most. It's like that, when we are faster and lose more, then we will get a bigger win from the game, the win is commensurate with the risk. Lol

To be honest, I never thought I was making a profit, because if I saw that the winnings were our money that we had lost, or in other words they just returned our money. but the difference is that we make a small deposit every month, but when we win it can be the amount of money we spend over a year, for example. Maybe we have different views on this, but so far I feel the way I said above. However if I were asked what kind of big win I would like to get, then perhaps stopping would be the biggest win for an active gambler.

Gambling haven't take significant amount of money from me, and I plan to keep it this way, I don't worry myself too much about when I should win or how much I have spent on gambling, it is not a must, because the amount I risk on gambling is even up to the amount that I could start remembering everytime and maybe make me feel unrest.

I have won in the past, and it felt so good but it doesn't make me want to increase how much I will like to risk on gambling some day, I still strongly remember my rules and regulations when gambling, no matter how much I win it won't make me go crazy and start believing that gambling do have something to offer me.

Winning and taking my leave instantly is the best strategy that I like, gambling doesn't care about you, if you like lose everything you have, it's unforgiving to those who don't like themselves, I like myself and I am not ready to get wrecked because of gambling.

You don't really need to see such thread, because fatal losses are more frequent than best win. out of a %100 gambling, %90 are loss while %10 are winning.

[/quotes
I totally agree to this but to me I don't think I keep record of my losses than wins because mostly what I bear in mind is to recover my losses and with that I don't keep counts of them as I put up a positivity mindset on how to make a big win.
Because I feel by so doing you'll recover your losses,most times I loose more than I win so since I adopted this policy of me not keeping track of the losses I make big wins..
Nevertheless whenever I find my self in such situations of having more loss,I reduce or limits my habits of gambling for a while and see how I can work modalities to better wins when I visit again.
