Thought I’d share the story of my biggest win, since this thread’s all about those moments. Last summer at Belmont, I spotted a longshot—12-1 odds on a horse called Midnight Run. Most bettors ignored it, but I’d been digging into the data: the horse had a new jockey, solid training times, and the track conditions favored its running style. I crunched the numbers, saw value, and placed a $50 win bet. When Midnight Run surged past the favorite in the final stretch, I was screaming. Payout? $650. Not life-changing, but the thrill of nailing that analysis was unreal. Anyone else hit a longshot by trusting their homework?
