I was reading some old posts about gambling and figured this might be a good question to ask here, especially for the old-timers,  those who were already around during the early days.

I hope when you share your story, it won’t be something you regret too much.  Grin
We're not talking about your biggest wins here, but your biggest single bet, and maybe include a little background too, like how much that amount was worth at the time and why you were willing (or able) to risk it.

I’ll start with mine. Back in 2016, I remember placing a max bet of 0.1 BTC. I don’t recall the exact price of Bitcoin at that time, but looking at today’s price, that’s around $12,000. No way I’d ever do a single bet that size now.  Grin

But it was one of those moments I’d probably tell my kids about someday… especially if Bitcoin ever hits $1 million per coin.
I've not actually spent any BTC gambling before. It's kind of something I don't really think I would do. Every bitcoin I own and buy is very special to me because they are more like an investment for me. I one time won on a casino and got the bitcoin deposited directly there.. I transferred them out and left just little fractions of satoshi.. but eventually I lost them to crash game lol.. the fact is we don't want to be spending our bitcoin on gambling.  I mostly gamble using my local faith currency since it's much easier to deposit through my local bank..
