Wow!
I made the biggest bet of my life (500 bucks) about 30 years ago in a stakes at Belmont. The winner was a horse named State Dinner, but it was reported as being the longest time ever in NYRA history that it took to separate the photo. It was almost 30 minutes.
I was pretty sure that I'd win, but the anxiety it caused insured that I'd never again make such a large wager.
