Topic: Million dollar win on $15 parlay whoa - page 3. (Read 1097 times)
Totally insane! it's the best that I've seen and that parlay wins that I usually saw were from my friends and those weren't really that much. This guy became an instant millionaire with the little bet that he did on a parlay. I'm not a fan of parlays but it's interesting to see people win such amounts especially if the bet isn't that lot. I guess I'll have myself look for other interesting wins such as this did have won through a parlay and with a very small amount.
Crazy story! To be honest, I know that many bookmakers have the maximum winnings that a player can get by making a multi bet, and I was very surprised when I read the news that the bettor hit the jackpot with 96,000 + odds placing a $ 15 bet and won 1.3 million.
As I understood from the article, this bettor wished to remain anonymous, sad, I would have looked with interest at his further behavior after receiving a win - whether he continued to play with crazy odds or would choose simpler games.
This is really unbelievable lol , 96,000 odds? WTF this is the highest Odds i ever saw in my entire gambling career.As I understood from the article, this bettor wished to remain anonymous, sad, I would have looked with interest at his further behavior after receiving a win - whether he continued to play with crazy odds or would choose simpler games.
But i will never have that guts to make this hold lol.

This is the most insane winning parlay I've ever seen. And with the last leg resting on a golf match that went deep into a playoff. Would have had a heart attack watching myself
Best parlay ypu ever won or seen a story on?

How could anyone be so lucky to predict all of them correctly.
I never have the guts to stack bets like that and walk away though in some ways its smart in an all or nothing kind of way, makes more sense then lottery betting does. I have heard of some super long shot multi bet playing off like this and it involved Golf predictions all turning out, I cant quite remember the exact details but I will look. This one is unique for involving so many sports, that knowledge must be quite rare in diversity.
How come everyone lost to underdog? Were they manipulated?
Hard to do that manipulation, if ever, for multiple games or sports at the same time. No such thing also that it will be intentionally manipulated for the sake of 1 bettor.
Just have to accept that is pure luck and hitting all those parlay bets with high odds is really damn good luck that will only happen for an average once or twice a year or even more just based on my observation.
I will admit I won't do that kind of betting so kudos to that guy. It's like throwing $15 every time I bet and in total, I've might be on a big loss right now.
Damn! That's the fucking beauty of parley. I had never seen such a big win for this tiny amount of bet. However, odd for the golf seem too high. How come everyone lost to underdog? Were they manipulated? I have no idea on golf match odd though as I never check out them. It seems unusual.
Manipulated or just pure win then no one can know and what is impressive here on how that gambler or guy able to know that those underdogs could beat up the favorites.?No one would anticipated that and this is indeed a lucky hit even with experience with parlays having 3 lines is already hard to win up even betting with the favorites.
It is just amazing on how far could you able to earn but of course it would be needing that extreme luck.
Yep think this just a pure luck thing, no way multiple championships wereanipulated so a $15 parlay ticket could hit. Sometimes people just hit the lottery and that's what this guy's slip was.

You are right there. The bet was placed on Betfair and we know that they are one of the top gambling markets in Europe so maybe they can accommodate that kind of limit and its winnings. And no one really expected that winnings as I will give a 1% chance (that kind of percentage is even higher) to hit all that legs.
Luckily, that bettor hits it and now enjoying his unexpected winnings. It's not about a $15 bet but it's a rare case to hit such odds in the history of sports betting.

I'm sure this bettor is gambling consistently with this parlay bet, you would not win if you are not too lucky and it so happened his time has already come.
Well, he gambled in a reputable website, so he gets his money, the question that came into my mind now, what if we win this big using our favorite crypto sportsbook here, will we not face a problem claiming that big winning?
I just ask this because although I have not experienced a problem yet, I read some scam accusation threads that a gambling site requires their document when they win big money.
If the gambling website in which you are playing is a reputable one then most likely you are not going to have problems with it, however we must remember the next, casinos do not like to lose and they like even less to lose big, so if you are cashing out those kind of wins then you need to make sure that you are always following their TOS.Well, he gambled in a reputable website, so he gets his money, the question that came into my mind now, what if we win this big using our favorite crypto sportsbook here, will we not face a problem claiming that big winning?

If you do not then they could use the TOS to not pay you and get away with it, also I think that KYC after a big win is acceptable and most likely it will be on the TOS already so it is basically inevitable if you happen to have a win as big as the one mentioned here.

Up this. Parlay is probably one of the hardest (if not the hardest) things to win from. It's like asking to find exactly $5 in the middle of nowhere when you're in need of exactly $5.
No I mean even among friends it's stupid if you play five rounds, you lose four of them and let's say a total of 80 bucks goes to waste. You win one with 20 bucks and tell everyone you won 20 bucks again this week. Just doesn't make sense to me, but who cares.
I even think it is pretty common that people only report their winnings and hide their losses. I had a friend who told me literally every weekend that he won a parlay but lost none. As I have a clue about betting and parlay betting, I know that's impossible for several weeks in a row. I asked him what his losses were and he always denied there were any... Come on, you don't just only win with parlay bets, there is just no way.
I mean it is kind of stupid to actually consider losses if you were thinking of gambling as simply for entertainment purposes. It's just like other games, would you really consider sharing your losses instead of your wins? Not really right? It's pretty normal that people actually only report winnings, not to mention the media. Losses literally make up almost the entirety of an ocean for example, nobody would actually enjoy listening to how someone lost ngl. Even as a method to convince someone to stop, it isn't really that effective.I think it has inspired me now, lol.. maybe I'll start putting huge parlay so one day I'll be able to make a fortune in gambling. They say no one wins in big parlay but that's the proof, when you are really lucky, nothing is impossible and I just can't imagine how the owner o the bet feels while watching the game., especially the last leg to settle.
Be careful though because parlay is a difficult one to win from, this person was just at the right place and right time and that he won this big. Remember that this isn't a thing that will happen to anyone, this might not even happen again for a really long time.No I mean even among friends it's stupid if you play five rounds, you lose four of them and let's say a total of 80 bucks goes to waste.

It is the typical bet that you wonder why? It is actually the fun of betting I think many are making this type of bets to see what it turns out, but I think the main thing is to do them in a bookmaker that has funds 
The most curious of these bets are those of golf, there is a lot of variance there currently, it is very difficult with the quality of good players that currently exist and there is no dominating player today that guarantees with his presence to win a tournament, in fact the The only one who I was seen with various possibilities was the rookie Viktor Hovland this guy is going to be the new star of Golf, remember that name.
On the other hand I had the opportunity to see that playoff game ( 8 ) Harris English, incredible ... as "·$%&%/ put this name on his parley, of all it is the most incredible.

I don't know who says you cannot win parlays because I usually make a lot of parlays and win some so although unlikely, you can always win. That said, don't get too inspired and lose all your bankroll to parlays because overall parlays will keep you in net loss, that's my experience with parlays at least. You may hit one big one but follow by 15-20 losses which eat up all the winnings you got.Even the game where England was required to beat Czech Republic was pretty scary actually and I felt the game might end up in a draw eventually because there was just 1 goal and it could have easily been neutralized by the Czech Republic at any moment.

Yeah, winning a $1.36 million payout from a bet which wagered only $15.50 is not going to happen for everyone. I mean it's similar to winning a casino bet with 100k odds and anyone who was played any kind of casino games like dice or slots knows it is near impossible to get that kind of win. Yes the guy was extremely lucky and good that he won the final leg which was as mentioned in the link, a 35-1 long shot.I think if I had such a bet on any sportsbook and the last leg was remaining, I might have placed a bet to counter the last bet or just take the cash out if that option was available that moment. I mean how can you watch the game when you see millions of dollars on the line, technically it's only 15 dollars but you know all other legs have won and it's the last one so you must hedge it somehow.

He should not think about getting the other lucky in the next playing gambling because that will not be the same as before.
Maybe that is the time for him to stop gambling
Maybe that is the time for him to stop gambling
We shouldn't say that. Let the guy enjoy his winnings. Whatever he does on that money, it's none of our business anymore.
More importantly, we shouldn't say for him to stop gambling. We aren't in the place to say that and that was interfering with his freedom of gambling.
Maybe let's just hope for the best for him.
If we can give him the advice to stop gambling, that will be good, especially if that is happening to our friends because gambling will not always help us win.
Yes, that is what we can do.
I wish we can be like him winning that game.

Question that comes into my mind about this huge winning "is this the only one bet he placed on that day or he placed so many bets with so many different combination for the parlay?". I guess he did place many parlay bets and he did it really often since his first day of his gambling journey. It is obvious that the winning bet is an awesome win no matter how many bets he placed and how much money he spent.
Haha I like that idea. Do we know whether he did not spent $1.2 million in order to win $1 million and made a total loss pf $200,000?
Like lottery, you play so many tickets you have to win the jackpot but you are ultimately left with empty hands. 
Quite funny but who knows right? we see his winnings but what else might behind that,
maybe he spend lots of money before having that lucky parlay.
That's for him to reveal, we don't know and it's none of our business anymore, let him enjoy this huge
amount of winning and wish that same luck will on its way to prosper our bets.
That's how gambling works, when lucks comes up it will bring decently!
