I like this one. Once you get up to a decent balance, you can have massive swings of several thousand dollars either way each day.

First year of betting I had no idea what I was doing. Lost 5,000 like nothing betting baseball. I was very good at figuring out hockey though. Not sure why. Have no clue now though. Anyway.......$300 into 40,000. Exclusively on hockey. Stareted of 21-2 run. Once I built it up to a couple thousand I was unstoppable. Then I got stupid. Started betting basketball using tout picks. Thinking abot it now I want to puke. Got up to 70,000. Then lost alot of it before I went back to hockey. Ended up with 20,000 to end the season. Took out half and then shortly after the disaster with ESB happened

People get streaks. Usually lose it back. Or take out a bunch....lose what's left and redeposit. In the long run or even over a shorter period people will lose it one way or the other. But since you have zero clue you can't even imagine doubling it

Years ago, at the beginnings of internet gambling, there was one software provider that actually allowed it's providers to configure a +EV blackjack game,
AND it let you know when it was shuffling the deck, so you could count cards.

Different sites had slightly different rules, but most of them had surrender, and single deck.

I turned a $1K deposit into $40K. I was obviously on a hot streak. I lost something like $5-8K back, and then cashed out. They delayed a bit
paying me, claiming they had to check to logs to make sure I wasn't using a robot, but they eventually paid in full.

The software was Unified Gaming, you can find references around the internet to people who took advantage of this +EV game:

Needless to say, Unified Gaming didn't last long as an online software provider.

Good old days.

Your $5.00 into $3,000 is more ludicrous than $100 into $21,000. Basic math, aren't you in finance? Or fantasy, maybe you meant fantasy

tanner12oz · Jan 7, 2019

$5ish up over $100 on horses on twinspires. Show bets and doubles if I recall. Lost it all back of course but made for an entertaining day
