I Like Big Bets And I Cannot Lie

Normally, this weekly column ends with a look at big bets from the weekend that was. But this week, that’s where we’re going to start.

One high-roller apparently had nearly $1 million sitting around and played it as follows at Caesars:

• $316,000 Vikings -3.5 (-102) vs. Browns
• $300,000 Cowboys moneyline even money (+100) vs. Jets
• $330,000 Titans +7.5 vs. Cardinals

The Titans guess makes considerably sense, because the buyer made the wager in Tennessee, maybe simply wanting some pores and skin within the sport to assist the house group. The primary guess was extra distinctive, taking Minnesota to cowl in opposition to Cleveland in a sport performed in London.

Whatever the motivation, the Vikes made the client sweat profusely earlier than pulling out a 21-17 victory, masking by half a degree. Trailing 17-14, Minnesota gained on a landing with 25 seconds remaining.

So the massive bettor banked $309,803.92 in revenue (whole payout $625,803.92).

With that wager gained, the high-roller reloaded in Sunday’s conventional early window of 1 p.m. ET video games. Dallas noticed New York an early 3-0 lead, then scored the following 30 factors and coasted to a 37-22 victory.

That’s one other $300,000 in revenue (whole payout $600,000).

Then Tennessee capped it off in inconceivable trend, in Sunday’s late window of video games. The Titans had been down 21-6 early within the fourth quarter when Arizona operating again Emari Demercado ripped off what seemed to be a 72-yard landing run.

That might’ve put Tennessee in a possible insurmountable 28-6 gap, with 12:53 remaining.

Besides Demercado inexplicably let go of the ball simply earlier than crossing the objective line, pondering he was already in the long run zone. The ball then rolled out of bounds in the long run zone for a touchback.

So the Titans had life, and Cam Ward & Co. took benefit. Tennessee scored the ultimate 16 factors, capped by Joey Slye’s 29-yard subject objective as time expired, giving the Titans a 22-21 victory.

And giving the bettor one other $300,000 revenue (whole payout $630,000).

Whole all of it up, and the high-roller took down Caesars for $909,803.92 on the day.

Gorgeous.

Finish Round

Nationwide Tight Ends Day — sure, there’s such a factor now; there’s a day for all the pieces, in case you haven’t seen — is widely known on the fourth Sunday of October every year. However for one DraftKings Sportsbook buyer, the celebration began on the primary Sunday.

That’s a three-leg, player-prop parlay on first landing scorers, all tight ends. The bettor put all of 15 bucks on:

• Harold Fannin Jr. to score the first touchdown in the Browns’ London game vs. the Vikings
• Dallas Goedert to score the first TD in the Eagles’ home game vs. the Broncos
• Theo Johnson to score the first TD in the Giants’ road game vs. the Saints

Halfway by the primary quarter in London, Fannin put Cleveland up 7-0 on a 1-yard TD cross from Dillon Gabriel.

Denver and Philadelphia traded subject objectives within the first quarter. Then Goedert hit paydirt on a 2-yard cross from Jalen Hurts within the second quarter.

And Theo Johnson opened the scoring within the Giants-Saints tilt, on a 1-yard TD catch from Jaxson Dart within the first quarter.

These three TD passes added as much as a complete of simply 4 yards gained. But it surely doesn’t matter how a guess cashes; fairly, solely that the guess truly cashes.

The parlay had odds of +719900, or in easier-to-read phrases, 7199/1. Nonetheless, the client additionally utilized a 33% parlay enhance that DK provided, which hiked the percentages to about 9575/1.

Add all of it up, and that $15 {dollars} became a whopping $143,635.05. Don’t neglect the 5 cents.

Parlay Partay

The San Francisco 49ers’ gorgeous Thursday night time upset of the Los Angeles Rams was key to a FanDuel buyer cashing out 5 figures, on a modest $50 eight-leg parlay. Harm-riddled San Fran, an 8-point street underdog, rode Mac Jones to a 26-23 additional time victory.

The parlay included quite a lot of participant props, totally on the Niners, but in addition included San Francisco moneyline, which means San Fran needed to win the sport.

All eight legs received there, and with a 15% parlay enhance, did so at odds of +63250, or about 633/1. So the bettor bagged $31,625 in revenue (whole payout $31,675).

Right here’s Hoping You Had It

On the faculty gridiron, UCLA was off to an 0-4 begin this season, with coach DeShaun Foster getting fired after the third sport.

This previous weekend didn’t look promising for the Bruins. Penn State was coming to city, and the nationwide title contender had simply suffered a disappointing additional time house loss to Oregon.

Oddsmakers figured it might be a walkover, making the Nittany Lions 24.5-point favorites. However UCLA took a 10-0 first-quarter lead and stretched it out to 27-7 by halftime.

Then the Bruins held on for a 42-37 victory. When you’d had the foresight to take Bruins moneyline at +1500, a $100 guess would’ve offered $1,500.

Additionally within the Right here’s Hoping You Had It class: Buffalo Payments wideout Curtis Samuel was a +3500 lengthy shot to be the primary landing scorer in Sunday night time’s sport vs. the New England Patriots.

Surprisingly, neither group put up a landing within the first half. However about six minutes into the third quarter, Samuel delivered to offer the Payments a 10-6 lead.

When you’d put $100 on Samuel, then you definitely’d be sitting on $3,500 revenue. Heck, even 10 bucks would flip a tidy $350. That’s fairly good ROI.

I Like Massive Bets, Half II

Whereas the NFL and school soccer took a bundle of massive bets, the most important reported wager of the weekend was on the MLB playoffs. As was the case with a pair of million-dollar wagers final week, this seven-figure play landed at Borgata Sports activities, a BetMGM property in Atlantic Metropolis.

Sadly, just like the earlier two wagers — $1.8 million on Penn State moneyline vs. Oregon, and $1.3 million on Jets +3.5 vs. Dolphins — that $1.2 million play was an enormous donation to the home.

On Saturday, the bettor wanted a New York Yankees Recreation 1 win vs. the Toronto Blue Jays. However the high-roller received very a lot the other, because the Yanks received belted, 10-1.

However let’s end off on a optimistic notice, with a large school soccer winner.

Regardless of Clemson’s sudden 1-3 begin to the season, a Caesars Sports activities buyer determined to again Dabo Swinney & Co. in an enormous manner in opposition to Invoice Belichick and North Carolina.

The bettor put $275,000 on Clemson -14, on the street.

The Tigers lastly regarded just like the Tigers folks anticipated, whereas Belichick’s nightmare season continued. Clemson throttled North Carolina 38-10, and the bettor banked $250,000 revenue (whole payout $525,000).

As all the time, needless to say these high-rollers have the means to resist an enormous loss. All of us common on a regular basis Joes and Janes have to maintain it cheap. By no means guess greater than you possibly can afford to lose.
