Gambler Mattress Mack who won biggest-ever sports bet on brink of winning another £4.5m
Mattress mogul Jim McIngvale won £65m in November. He recently bet $1.5m on TCU to beat Georgia in the College Football Playoff National Championship game. If his bet comes through, he will pocket himself a staggering £4.4m. He travels to Las Vegas or Louisiana to place his bets. His customers get refunds if their purchases are successful. The 71-year-old is passionate about his betting. It is illegal in Texas. Georgia are firm favourites going into the contest.
