It's possible.  I once bet 3k on a game when I probably only had about 10 to my name; not that it matters but I lost.  That said I can believe someone who has a few hundred k would bet that much. I've seen people at the casino betting 10k a hand of BJ, so why not 3k on a game. Remember there are a lot of rich people out there 1/100 Americans are millionaires it stands to reason that some posting on here are that 1%.

Don't like sharing the Info??? Unless their rigged up w/ Tim Donaghy or some other Mafia bullshit w/ the refs on the take who gives a fuck about divulging the info....I guess they might not use a website to find certain info, but IMO that's what covers is great for. You find others who disagree w/ your view and maybe awaken you to a certain aspect you missed in your handicapping. I don't get the argument that information hurts a bet

$500 is a lot of money.

I agree that a lot on here say they are betting more than they are, but the real question is "why do you care?" ...who gives a shit what they are betting.

Seriously does anybody here have a local?  If you do. Have a conversation with the guy.  My local routinely tells great stories of guys getting slammed for 15 to 20k a night and vice versa nearly every night.

I think many of you look it at through your eyes and not of the enormously large betting public.  Esp. college kids. 

God knows nearly 20 yrs. ago when I was in school I would never believe that people bet the amounts they do on games.  I felt like a big shot betting 100 a game back then. 

Pretty funny when you look back at it, my local doesn't even meet up with his clients unless the account is 5000 in one direction or the other.  Back in college I remember getting excited for picking up 200 or 300.

So I guess because some yahoo is willing to bet an insane amount on what amounts to be close to coin-flip is suppose to impress me?  Fuck no, I would've treated a $2 prop as much as I've studied a $50 side bet. Just pick the winners....

Do you know why your "friend" does not bet any more than $500 at a time... BECAUSE HE IS SO RICH MONEY MEANS NOTHING TO HIM!!!!!!! He is just doing it to have action... just like people who only bet $10 because that's what the spend to have action and some fun. $500 to him... is like $10 to most... no? Think about what your trying to tell us.... he has more money then God... but yet won't bet more than $500? Why do you think this is? Is he afraid of losing $500? So please... what's your point? You make no sense. Just think about what your saying.

thats why the real and best cappers on this site don't say how much they are betting, but they use UNITS.    the only people who really care about amounts are just losers who want a quick win or don't know shit for themselves

has anyone ever heard dont beleive every thing you read, basically who cares , i handicap my own games , but i read post on covers everyday, theres an old saying your onl;y as goodas your info, and for me public preception is info for me, if you follow posters after a little bit you'll sift through the bullshit and figure out who's full of it and who's not

and as for you not believing someone has 3k on a game if they do or dont so what but 3k is not hard to beleive i jus laid 3k on phillies last nite to win 1868

olball you must be a young kid or something. There certainly are gamblers that bet that high because they have the money.

In some gambling establishments the limit on side bets on football is as high as 20,000 dollars and on money lines 5,000 dollars...yes I said dollars and not pesos...lol

Don't you think wealthy people gamble?...if you don't c'mon grow up kid and welcome to the real world!!

How about this thought...

DOES IT REALLY MATTER HOW MUCH YOU BET????

GET THE PLAY CORRECT AND COLLECT YOUR $$$$$$$

$25, $50, $1000, $2,000,000 who cares

you guys need to worry about getting your play correct rather than what you bet....pretty simple...

I was playing Mini Baccarat at my local casino about 3 weeks ago - I saw a woman go through almost 15K in about 2 hours at the MB table I was sitting it at.

It was sick.
