"Okay, in a day, I would say last year, yeah, in a day, like I lost, I lost more than $200,000," Enokay confessed, leaving the interviewers visibly stunned and seeking further clarification.

Intrigued by the staggering amount, the show's host, Jay Foley, inquired whether Enokay had placed the entire $200,000 in a single bet or was an accumulation of multiple bets throughout the day.

However, according to him, he did not put all the amount on a single game but staked smaller amounts on different slips, totalling $200,000.

"No, so it wasn't $200,000 at a go, but the whole day, the slips I did in a day, yes," he clarified.

Despite the substantial loss, the University of Ghana student revealed that he could recoup the lost funds within a month or two through successful bets, sharing that he had won back more than $470,000 during that period.

"But I even won everything back, and I was posting live in-play games, and we won more than $470,000 that time and I stopped," Enokay explained.
