    My apologies if this is in the wrong forum.

    I'm curious to read the single biggest win TR ever recorded in the annals of VMB. It would be so interesting and entertaining to read such a wild and epic blow by blow account.

    I know Bronco, CaptainJack, and I have posted six figure win TRs, but I think the biggest is either one of Shifter's recent reports or the wild run JDVegas had last year (spring, I think). I know others have mentioned even bigger wins, but I am not sure if they wrote up a full TR

    I thought Nate won about $600k Was up higher but gave some back. But my memory isn't the best.

    Yeah, I was not sure either. I think I recall TRs where he was up over seven figures during the trip, but I can't recall any that were winning trips by the end. I guess it depends on how the OP defines winning.

    And even though I am repeating myself, I again recommend JD's TR where he bought in for (I think) a few thousand and ended up the trip up six figures. One of the all time great runs posted on this Board and worth the read if you have not seen it

    Natedog had the single largest reported win on Roulette. Something like $760,000.

    Jdvegas' blackjack run was maybe not the biggest win ever on the board, but certainly up there. But easily the most exciting TR I've read on here, the way he described that magical night at the table. Plus with pictures, where you can see his bet size increasing throughout the session, definitely a must read.

    My biggest was $176k...but that wasn't Vegas, so I didn't post it here. I've had a few $40-50k trips, but that's about it for Vegas as I tend to take my foot off the gas once I get ahead comfortably. As a VP player I'm definitely not in the league of some of these table games players who can better parlay their big wins.

    Been a while since I read one of yours. For some reason I was thinking some of your vegas TRs were larger (not that $40k is anything to sneeze at)
