FanDuel bettor turns 25-cent bet into $23,673 win
It apparently just takes a quarter to win the payout of a lifetime.
A bettor at FanDuel Sportsbook bet on a big game for more than a dozen NBA and a few NFL players with a crazy 25-leg parlay.
The odds were nearly 100,000/1, coming in at +9469080, or an implied probability of about 0.00001.
The parlay won the bettor an unbelievable $23,673 off a single 25-cent gamble.
The bettor had 18 different NBA over picks, which included wagers on players’ point totals, three-pointers made, rebounds and assists.
They also added seven plays on last week’s “Thursday Night Football” game between the Steelers and Titans, which saw a close call for the bettor.
Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo needed to get over 2.5 catches and 25 receiving yards to keep the parlay alive, but by midway through the fourth quarter, he didn’t have a single reception.
On the final drive, Okonkwo caught three passes from quarterback Will Levis, just barely hitting the over.
There were a few near-misses over on the NBA side of the parlay as well.
Killian Hayes (10+ points), John Collins (4+ rebounds), Cade Cunningham (2+ three-pointers made) and Jordan Clarkson (2+ three-pointers made) all hit their over right on the dot.
