Draftkings Parlay
DraftKings announced via Twitter that a bettor hit a smooth $24,707.07 on a $2 parlay. If that isn’t wild enough, it was the player’s first-ever bet with the sportsbook too.
- DraftKings prioritized OWNING their own backend technology via this merger with SBTech, making them the first, and only company in this space to own their risk and trading platform. This gives DraftKings a huge edge to the rest of the market. It forked up the cash to keep everything in house not only to provide a better customer experience, but.
- You can add up to 10 or more events and combine them into one parlay, but there as maximum total odd that DraftKings is prepared to accept for any bet. There isn’t an exact figure provided by DraftKings for this, but as a rule of thumb, anything parlay that would potentially provide returns of more than $100,000 will likely not be accepted.
The most incredible part of the nine-team parlay that jacked up the odds were the bettor’s predictions on the Saints, Lions, Vikings, and Browns all to win by 1-6 points. Following those bets were a few prop bets mixed in that consisted of Aaron Rodgers to throw for more than 2.5 touchdowns, Drew Lock throwing over 1.5 touchdowns, and Derek Carr to throw for over 259.5 total passing yards which he has done just once in his previous five games.

And it's certainly among the biggest ever placed with a U.S.

Every single gambler out there is looking at this parlay thinking “why not me?” Here I am just begging to break my recent 0-5 streak and this guy just comes waltzing into a new sportsbook account and walks away with $24k and change.

The truth is, nobody can predict something as wild as this and it’s the reason it is the headline story that it is now. I would love to ask this person whether or not they actually watched every one of their bets closely or just happened to check their account at the end of football Sunday and see an extra $24,000 in their account. I would like to think that covered the beers and chicken wing bill at whatever bar this bettor was watching the games at.
Good for them though right? It is like a beginner golfer making a hole in one during his first-ever golf round, you have to be happy for them, yet you are so mad it wasn’t you.
