What's the most you've won at a Casino?

[spydersingh]

This isn't a "how big is your cock" competition, but was out this weekend with mates and one of them won £25k from playing Roulette! He only put in about £400 to start as well! That was probably the most I've seen won in one go in a UK Casino.

Leads to the question, what's the most you or have seen won at a Casino?

[Puggit]

Turned £10 in to £70 at Blackjack once...

Not a lot of cash, but a good return.

[Robatr0n]

$50 at roulette!

I've managed about an 800% return at best in one night. I only gamble drunk though, if i play sober i lose badly.

Never seen anyone win it particularly big. Seen a guy do 50,000 in a go at roulette once, he lost the lot and then promptly did it again.

£140 back from £20 on Roulette, all spent on expensive cocktails.

effing hell, thats a great night out.... 25k in your sky rocket !!

Best i did was poker... won 5k from 2 buy ins at 500 each.... But i almost always lose everything when i gamble, hence why i don't !!

$1200 from a 25c slot machine, although I'd stuck about 10 dollars in by then!

When I went to Vegas I made a rule that I would 'play small' and only bet small amounts, and just play for fun. I managed to turn $50 into £250 over 4 days, but on the last day I sat at a table for a few hours just for the free drinks and lost it all

I spent 12 hours in the grovsenor casino in Bristol and lost £800, before taking £50 cash on my credit card and left with £5,500. It was the last time I went but when I get drunk I still think about going, but don't go as it's dangerous!

i play online poker and every now and then withdraw £50 of winnings, taken over 2 years to win £200 though!

[BigBen]

A few hundred dollars I should think, but usually very very drunk by the end of the evening so difficult to keep accurate accounts.

In Nice earlier this year for the monaco grand prix I turned 100 euro into 5k in about 1hr 20 mins playing blackjack. I was pretty hammered and took some risks I wouldnt normally have taken. The big win came about when I had just won about 1000euro and I wanted to take a break so put a 5 euro chip down to gather myself. The croupier was pretty rude and said that the minimum was 10 euro. I asked what the max was ( I ws riled) and was told 500 Euro, so I thought, sod you and went for that( too much JD and coke) I got 2 8's ( typical) against the dealers 5, so I split, got another one, split again. the dealer bust and I was in the money ! This was the biggest of a few wins that evening.

went to the jewellers the following morning and blitzed the lot on a Panerai!

Mate went into Gala Casino (Cardiff) a few months ago, and turned the free £10 bet for registering into £100 on roulette. Not an amazing amount, but not bad considering he didn't have to risk any of his own cash.

I myself lost £50 that night, my mate did the decent thing and paid for most of my drinks for the rest of the night.

I did end up about £40 last year when playing after a night on the tiles. I, like many others, never seem to win when sober.

I'm going to Vegas in November and have managed to pull all the money together from playing blackjack in two nights (a month apart) - £680 altogether from £40 to begin each time. The second time I won £300 from £40. I decided to call it a night and had a drink and a bite to eat. My mates carried on afterwards and after watching them for ten minutes, I thought £20 won't hurt and kept playing. I cashed in £450 at the end of the night so I left rather happy. The problem now is I'm in line for a good dicking over so I reckon I'll be coming back from Vegas without a pot to piss in!

My mate (who I'm going to Vegas with) was in there the other week. He was arse-holed and was almost falling asleep at the table. Somehow he managed to keep awake and keep playing. From less than £100 he cashed in £1,500. He was so pissed he had to be helped into a taxi and went to sleep immediately. The next morning he could only find £350 of it!

Took £50 to play with in Vegas, left with £250. That made me happy. Not playing very often, though - Gambling is rather addicitve.
