spudski Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 What's the most you've won, from the least amount of outlay? Woke up this morning to a nice surprise. From last night's games. 11 teams to win, 42p (the balance left in my account) @ 982.9/1 boosted. Total £413.24 That's probably the most from the least outlay for me. Have won more in the past, but not with such a small outlay. Anyone better that? Or winthem on a regular basis? 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjak Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 So u won £413.24 from a 42 pence bet ?.............so you honestly state, hand on heart.....that this is true? If so, well done.........because i regularly turn the amount of around £413.24 into 42 pence with no trouble at all! 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 I don’t bet big, I’m a 10p accumulator type better. I once had a £60-odd win on a 2 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses coupon. Had a £60-odd win on a £5 free bet on Liverpool / Man City 2-2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 I almost won a couple of grand for a quid on a results forecast acca many years ago. The one result that let me down was Rangers losing 1-0 at home to Hamilton who hadn`t won for months and not scored for weeks. A couple of grand was quite a lot back then too - mid 80s I think.

Feral Williams Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Cashed out at £237 on a £1 bet in jan about 80 mins in to the games (all 3pm kick offs) - a minute later Swansea scored v QPR and I’d have won FA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, well done.........because i regularly turn the amount of around £413.24 into 42 pence with no trouble at all! Hand on heart...honest mate. I very rarely bet using my own money. Every day I get free games to play on my William Hill account. Free spins, bonus drop, scratch, etc. Most days I will win anything from 20p to a tenner. From free games. I put that money won on accumulators. They very rarely come in, but last night's did. I also won in the past, from a free bet, 4 x £25 bets...which I did 4 accumulators. 1 came in, another I cashed out. Both totalled approx £1400. I did my usual free spins today and won £10.80. I did a £5 ew double on West Bilboa and Noble Yates. Won £39. So I'm betting with free money and winning. So from £10.42 free money... yesterday and today brought in £452. I had another accumulator today, only a few quid, which was looking really good, but Sheff Wed let me down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 I do an occasional both teams to score accumulator. My daughter got me into it she had been doing 8 games for a £1 bet for about half the season, the first go I had I won £98. That was the season before COVID, since then I have had one other win of £72 when 7 of the games came in and the last one was abandoned with about 6 minutes to go when it was 1-0. I think I play so infrequently, I must be still up, my wife on the other hand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsofclay Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 My favourite accumulator, when I bet, is both teams to score. I prefer that because one can still win big money and the bet stays alive until the very end of the game. Whereas if one is doing a results accumulator there's always one or two out of say the dozen where it goes wildly wrong so if one has put Norwich to win at QPR and with twenty minutes to go it's 4-0 to QPR it's highly unlikely that'll get turned around, whereas focusing on both sides to score it could be 6-0 to QPR going into added time but there's always a chance Norwich will get a consolation goal right up until the last kick. Mainly do that when I am at home on a Saturday afternoon, but that's rarely the case. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elruliri Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 I had a Xmas bet years ago having a Xmas £100 bonus from work. Cardiff were playing Stockport on a Friday night. Cardiff were on a bad run so were 11/10. Stupidly I put in a 5 match accumulator with them in it for another £100. I remember that I had us to draw with Luton and Liverpool v Everton to draw the last match to win the bet, this was on a Sunday. I must of kicked and headed everything in that game. I ended up winning £7800. A few days before Christmas, brilliant. I bet a tenner on 4 draws one Sunday and won a grand. I've had the odd couple of grand and 500 quid but don't really do it anymore. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today i had a treble on Barnsley ... L Orient... and Burnley. I failed to notice that Kompany put out a shadow side, and not their regular eleven ?!! Research is the key, and i lost £40 because i failed to do some...Ha!. Good luck with your future bets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hardly call myself a punter mate ..as it's pocket change often, or like I said, money won from free games. If I have time, I will look at form and position in league. That's my basic premise. Generally it's gut feelings. I usually put between 10 and 12 teams in the accumulator. I probably spend 10 mins having morning coffee doing it. Then forget until next morning.

Pickle Rick Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 (edited) I was a stoppage time goal away from winning over £13k from a £1 bet back when Yeovil made it to the Championship on the open day of the season. Even had them to beat Millwall away and they did. The stoppage time goal came from a Leeds equaliser if I remember correctly. This was checked while walking back to my car after watching City and I don’t think cash out was an option, hence why I didn’t check in-game. It was a 14 game accumulator!

ralphindevon Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 I’ve had such a terrible run on football betting lately, I rarely bother. Not that I bet large amounts. Last week me lumping on Cornick to score first and he scored second sums up my luck at the moment. I did open a Virgin bet account before Cheltenham and have drawn money back out of it every week since, most of it on horses though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slartibartfast Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 Niot football but still pretty lucky today..........put £50EW on the National winner @10's but the really lucky bit was last night I meant to put £40 on a horse at Tampa Bay (USA), but I cocked up and put it on a horse for today (same venue, same time) SP turned out to be 13/2, couldn't even cash out as it was in America, so I forgot about it.......................and, you've guessed it, it won! Don't get many days like that ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob k Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 (edited) I’ve been close a few times but never hit the jackpot with Football, probably £2-300 is my biggest win. I did win £315 yesterday off a £2.50 bet for Corach Rambler to win the ultima and the National. Edited April 16, 2023 by Rob k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richwwtk Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 Won about £6K off a £1 bet for 6 draws many years ago. It was pre Internet so the days when you went into the bookies to use the match day coupon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
