I think he can really pick the sports bet right because he can win a huge amount of money. But don't forget, the luck factor is also with him so that can help him to get big wins. Maybe he knows a lot of things so he can pick the right team that will win. That's really amazing because not everyone can have the right choice. Maybe he is a time traveler from the future lol. But we also don't know whether the news is true or fake.

The big question is how many attempts he made at such a task, if he tried to do similar every week for last twenty years then well done but not as unlikely as first attempt from someone who entered results randomly.   I always appreciate the underdog bets but the low stake size suggests to me he is in this game often and is happy to give away the small amounts in hope of that bigger pay off, some luck and yep bit of brains to know where best to predict scoring.

74 cents worth for anyone wondering

Well, this is a hice hit with 74c bet! Surely this is not a hit from the first time! Something like this is tried from week to week, and so on for years! It's probably some passionate gambler who bets every week and he finally managed to hit the jackpot with one of his crazy parlays! And this is incredible parlay definitely, going for this odds is crazy, someone really needs to be a sports freak to pick all this game and predict the outcome! As OP quotted, to pick one draw game from all this games is something!

Congratulations to the winner, when I see such a nice hit, I get a desire to try something similar!

How can you explain such fortunate winning happening for real? It looks unlikely and unrealistic even for a Hollywood movie script!

This is explained by the fact that, quite simply, improbable events end up occurring, and extremely improbable ones as well. With so many people playing the lottery every week, it is normal that someone will end up winning.

Quote
A gambler turned a 60p bet into £157,865.59 this weekend when two Premier League teams came from behind. The punter correctly predicted all 16 results on Saturday in the Premier League and Championship at odds of over 263,109/1, and while the majority came in with relative ease, late comebacks were needed in two 3pm top-flight games.

Actually, I guess luck purely can't explain this event, there must be something else! Or are these fake news?

It can. You would see it differently if you had played millions of hands of (online) poker.

".. the odds of hitting a royal flush would be 4/2,598,960, which would work out to 1/649,740."

In other words, they are smaller than the jackpot in the news, and I, in the time I have been playing, have already seen it several times. The last time was one or two weeks ago and it didn't help me at all because the opponents had not anything and folded, I only got the blinds.

That guy must be can predict how much Bitcoin will worth on 2023 Roll Eyes

Predicting 16 match correctly without missed any single match is really insane, moreover he can predict which match will be draw. AFAIK bet on football isn't easy since draw is higher chance to happen, unlike boxing where draw is really hard or unlikely will happen. After getting huge payout, obviously he will keep betting with his money and he can just bet on favored clubs with huge money to earn easy money.

Being lucky, it is always possible . But i hope he didn't spent too much money in it before he achieved this record because mostly gambler that i know they become successful but the amount what they spent before winning is higher than what amount of rewards they received afterwards, wherein, after how many attempts. and that is because of addiction.

Imagine how hard this game, it's literally a game of luck . Cheesy

Its really impressive. This person might often bet and so because of his knowledge and experience, he managed to predict the results. Its not easy to predict 1 or 2, but he did it with 16? Thats really unbelievable.

Its not impossible to happen in reality, but its rare to witness for a  very lucky person.

I would say that is pure luck but we don't know how many tries he did before getting all of that in one go. I would say it's his time to have it and taste the victory of pure luck he really deserve it but that's just insane if you imagine though. It looks like you are betting on a lottery and after with so many tries that takes you almost forever you finally win the jackpot. That's what it feels when winning like a jackpot in a lottery but what would he do after winning all of that? Probably gonna bet and keep playing again but who cares if it makes them happy they should as long as they don't abuse it that would make them suffer at the end.

some people are calling this hit lucky, but it's not possible for him to be lucky, the guy must be someone who analyzes the games very well, he didn't choose games at random and won, I don't believe he would have done that and if he had done it random selection of games without doing any analysis of the game he would not have hit the games and won the bet, at least I say that because I like to make multi bets and from what I see in multi bets there is no such thing as luck, the person needs to analyze the games and choose the games that have the highest chance of hitting to be in the multi bet. congrats to this guy who hit all these games

Then it's possible that he can hit another jackpot again if he has great analysis and insight he can do it over and over again he can be a god of gambling if he can repeat that peat again, I believe luck also has a factor on his winning, I hope they interview the guy so we can have an insight on how he won that jackpot.

So are you suggesting that he may have fixed all 16 games ? or better yet he can be an undercover time traveler ?

Of course its luck unrealistic yes, but it happened so yeah one lucky guy.
I don't know, there are different hypothesis: fixed matches, time traveller, fake news, fate or supernatural influence which can't be understood or explained by the science... Wink

What most amazes me is that it's not like winning 16 times in a roll on dice, roulette or at any other gambling game. This gambler managed to pick the only correct draw result among 16 games and also predicted correctly a match which changed the result at his favour at 92 minutes of gameplay!

Pretty sure that's 60 pence as well which is 0.6 pounds.

You always see these crazy parlays because they are inevitably going to happen given a large enough sample size, but you're probably not going to see yourself hit one of these in your lifetime.

Heck, even Drake has hit numerous crazy parlays on Stake - but he bets so much that it is bound to happen.
Thank you. I was in doubt what "60p" could mean and presumed it should be "pound", but as you say, "pence" makes more sense. Changed the title of the thread taking your observation in account.

Imagine the sequence of events needed in order to deliver the results that would perfectly fit the predictions of this impressive lucky gambler.

Actually, I guess luck purely can't explain this event, there must be something else! Or are these fake news?
Honestly, reading this left me speechless. I don't know what analysis method the lucky winner used, it's crazy when all the guesses are right. That person is like having a time machine or a crystal ball that can see and read what will happen in the future. gambler with super crazy luck.

Theoretically, such a win is possible, so I see no reason why this could be fake news.
It seems that it is not known how many coupons this person filled in, so theoretically he could fill a lot of bet slips and this one combination just became lucky. This is truly unbelievable luck, but still possible.

It is not everyday that we can see a lucky person but yes, it is possible.
We don't need an explanation for this kind of winning, this is just combination of luck and knowledge of the bettor.
Remember, when it comes to sportsbetting, the more you know about sports, the higher your chance of getting the correct outcome.
But with a long list of bets, now, there's luck also on that. I can't even correctly answers those free bets offered by bookies.

I consider the knowledge of the game and praying for luck to play as the two big factors, the guy is betting too long that he developed an insight and he predicted something out of extraordinary something like what if because in the past kind of thing
something like this is inspiring it may be extraordinary but it does happen however rare it is, but if the same guy hit jackpot so similar to this, then its another story.

I have seen some major parlay wins in the past decade and you could even see in the cryptocurrency gambling sites where users post their winning bets by playing huge parlay and these are pure luck. For a time period i used to play the same method but i was never lucky for a huge parlay like that, either you see a huge upset and everything comes crashing. So these are once in a lifetime golden opportunities and i wish i will be hit by luck and fortune like they do  Cheesy.
This is something very lucky, because among the 16 matches only one match ended as a draw and this guy hasade the right prediction on the bet. This won't happen that easier, luck had played a big role in his winning. Being lucky with gambling happens, but the same out of sports betting isn't an easy thing considering the gameplay that can change in no time.

Probably he is study so hard about all the team participating on that league since he predict 16 matches accurately plus the draw which is surely insane.
Yeah yeah "he studied"

Probably he is study so hard about all the team participating on that league since he predict 16 matches accurately plus the draw which is surely insane. Luck play an important part to his parlay but we should also gives credit to his good analysis skills and not just pure luck because it’s very hard to become lucky on a 16 matches parlay without any idea on the teams you are betting with. I think he is doing this kind of parlay many times before he hit this one lucky bet.
