Who has won the most money?

[clippedgull]

£900 on London winning the Olympic Vote.

I saw the betting drifting, but bet on the Beckham factor, thanks David

 

[gripper stebson]

$1000 playing a Poker machine in Vegas.

Pressed the button and up came the J,Q,K,A and 3 of Clubs. This meant a win of about $60 for the flush.

Went for it (against my nature completely!) and held the J,Q,K and A and wouldn't you bloody know it the 10 of Clubs came in!!!!

Machine starting flashing and playing music. A girl in a bunny girl outfit then strolled over and said

"Courtesy of The Luxor sir"

...and handed me 10 hundred dollar bils on a silver tray. All sounds a bit far fetched but it happened!! My mate tried to persuade me to put a few hundred of it in the million dollar roulette machines. I didn't, and paid for me hols with the money.

Apparently (I may be wrong) the chances of a Royal Flush are about 2,000,000/1 so a grand is pretty poor for a 50 cent bet!!
