Biggest amount of money ever staked/bet

About 18 million in chips that would have taken me from around $3500 to $7000 in a poker tournament finish, sadly I've won about $6 since..
 
In the 2006 world cup i put £2 bet on a 12 or 14 team accumaltor, few draws and the rest wins.

They all came in before the last match, Argentina v Holland, i had Argentina to win. They drew 0-0 and i was this close to £3,000

My largest amount bet was £200 on a horse,
was about 30 years ago (more than a weeks wage then).
It won the photo finish at 11/10.
Was shitting myself,it took ages to confirm in those days.
Told myself then "never again".

Biggest win was last July at Glorious Goodwood,
£12,995.50 for a £27 stake.
4 winners @ 9/2,8/1,9/1 and 16/1.

my biggest stake.....2007,at work we were running for the Ebor trophy,everything had gone right leading up,he was in great shape and we knew we had a very good chance..
so i put my holiday savings for that year on him £500 ew at 4/1.......
Jamie went to work on him and we came home with the Ebor and i had a good holiday that year:)

As a bookie,,,, I once took 2 £10k cash bets off the same guy 6/4 & 2/1 horses,, both fell.

I have paid out a £47500 from a £2 football coupon 15 teams all won, and I have paid out £28000 from a 20p Lucky 31 at cheltenham a few yrs ago all 5 winners big prices, the guy wanted all cash and walked out with it in a carrier bag(fucking loon)
 
£6K England v Switzerland friendly. England 2/7. We won 2-1. Gelson Fernandes hit the bar in the last minute. Shit myself. Also had 2 £500's on City 3-1 v Blackburn, collected at 14/1 both times. That said, I have lost far more than I have ever won. Don't gamble kids, it will ruin you.
