Bettor settles for $70K rather than risk $764K parlay win​

LV Review Journal Subscription

A bettor who needed the Panthers to win the Stanley Cup and the Heat to win the NBA title to turn $41.25 into $763,835.33 cashed out the four-team parlay Monday for $70,429.98.

The Barstool Sportsbook bettor hit the first two legs of the parlay in April on the under (9) of an Orioles-Nationals game and Zizou Bergs (-134) over Patrick Kypson in a tennis match on the ATP Challenger Tour in Tallahassee, Florida.

The other two legs of the 18,517-to-1 long shot were on Miami to win it all at 80-1 and on Florida at 70-1.

After the Heat beat the Nuggets on Sunday night to even the NBA Finals at one game apiece, the gambler cashed out for more than $70,000.

The Golden Knights, who beat the Panthers 5-2 in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final, or Denver can help the bettor feel better about their decision to cash out by claiming the crown.

Wise move I think

Florida could pull it off but not sure about Florida

No brainer

Those buy outs suck. It's to bad he couldn't obtain some sort of loan through whatever means to make a real hedge.

What a strange parlay also...

I do like me some Bergs though...

 

[CHOPTALK]

Lol what a random first 2 legs of the parlay

I'd ride it out I think ? .... Fuck it

70k$ is alot of money but that 764k$ is just too much 2 leave on the table


Easy 4 me 2 say .... I don't have anyone offering me a 70k$ buyout ?

I figure you are already getting screwed on odds on the first bet
You got lucky to make it this far and then they screwed you on the buyout
So may as well get screwed a third time by parlaying Mia and Fla with a portion of the 70k.....
