Everyone is happy that college football is back, but one bettor was a little happier than most on Monday night after the Louisville-Ole Miss game went final.
A customer placed a $10 14-leg parlay on Aug. 24 at a WynnBet online sportsbook. All of the legs were Unders on Week 0 or Week 1 college football totals, beginning with the Under 62.5 in the UConn-Fresno State game on Saturday, Aug. 28. Fresno State won 45-0 and the game did indeed stay Under.

Twelve legs later, the bettor was sitting on a parlay that would pay out + 799357 if the Louisville-Ole Miss game stayed Under the high total of 75.5.
At halftime, the score was 26-0 Ole Miss and the game -- and total -- was seemingly in hand. But a high-scoring second half made the bettor sweat until the final minutes when Ole Miss converted a fourth down and then knelt out the clock.
Ole Miss won the game 43-24 and the bettor -- who reportedly did not hedge his bet at WynnBet -- was able to cash the improbable parlay.
What a start to the college football season.

Amazing , I can't pick 1 winner hno:

 

[carlitosway]

Amazing that he didn't hedge!

 

[exploited17]

Amazing that he didn't hedge!

I am sure he did at a different book

 

[sheabutter]

I am sure he did at a different book

Are you sure?
It says he didn't hedge.
And I believe the article not you.

Are you sure?

I believe the guy writing the article was told he didn't hedge. So that's what he reported.

I believe the guy holding the ticket probably claimed that he didn't hedge. But he 100% could have hedged at another book. I could see him wanting to look like a big shot gambler by claiming he didn't hedge. That's very plausible and believable.

who reportedly did not hedge his bet at WynnBet

Says at that specific book
Lets put it this way
The guy did hedge or he is a moron

 

[carlitosway]

Perhaps will get a better idea in the upcoming days with new info.

 

[SmallDaddy]

I am sure he did at a different book

10 dollar long shot parlay bettors generally dont have the means to hedge a lot of money.

Certainly doubtful that they can come up with any kinda cash on a short notice.

 

[SmallDaddy]

Were any of the games on a different day?

Coming up with a lot of money on the same day to hedge, is next to impossible unless you are a serious gambler with connections.

How many small bettors have that?

I agree. I was thinking the same thing. Not many have 50k laying around for a hedge. Especially if they are betting 14 game $10 parlays. Lol

 

[carlitosway]

Great valid points Daddy. A chip off the old block.

Sometimes people take shots. Doesn't mean he is a small bettor. Not saying he is betting big. But you could be right. Either way I was just stating. Seems like people are saying he did a good job not hedging. Always bad not to hedge if you can. Itis just a matter of how much

im sure the casino with the bet would allow him to hedge on credit using the ticket as collateral .
I see no reason why they would not allow that

 

[bigbet1234]

Why would they do that?

 

[CHOPTALK]

Why would they do that?

Why not ?
The ticket is as good as money .
Books like to hedge to .
I see no reason why the sports book would not allow him to buy back as much as he wants on the other side

 

[valium]

i am sure that all most every where that would be illegal for the sports book to do. no chance you could do that in Vegas. Against gaming rules.

You could be right I am just speculating .

But if Vegas sports books give credit markers to high rollers and that’s legal I don’t understand why they could not give credit in this case using collateral on a ticket as good as money

There really is no rule to break
Its a simple decision by the sports book if they want to allow this person to have credit .
They give tons of people credit .

So it’s only a decision on deciding if they want to give this guy x amount of credit to make a completely separate bet from the original using his parlay ticket as collateral
The gaming board would have no impact on this decision

 

[fredo777]

I respectfully disagree. I know quite a few sports book managers in Vegas. They for a fact would not accept a
hedge or bet on credit.
