Each week, there tend to be a few bet-a-little-to-win-a-lot parlays that get to the finish line and cash out for bettors. So far in NFL Week 7 odds, there’s either a dearth of winners, or the DraftKings and FanDuels of the world haven’t reported on them yet.
But at one sportsbook in Las Vegas, a bettor wagered a little more than a little and almost won a whole lot.
“Almost” being the operative word, as it often is in gambling.
Read on for more on that wager, along with other notable big plays from NFL Week 7 betting.
Lost Bet On Jets
On Sunday night, ahead of the New York Jets vs. Pittsburgh Steelers game, Station Sportsbooks in Vegas posted this on X:
The $5,000 five-leg parlay already had four winners. Georgia moneyline +170 was the semi-surprise of the bunch, as the Bulldogs topped Texas 30-15 on Saturday.
The ticket also had the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles on the moneyline, at even money and -170, respectively. So, like Georgia, the bettor needed those two teams to just win their games.
Kansas City stifled the San Francisco 49ers in a Super Bowl rematch, winning 28-18. And Philly pounded the New York Giants 28-3.
The bettor also needed the Detroit Lions-Minnesota Vikings game to have the Over/Under on total points go beyond 51. That happened in Detroit’s 31-29 victory.
All that remained: New York Jets moneyline -130 vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night.
Add up all those odds on a parlay, and you’ve got +2797. Or just shy of 28/1, for a potential profit of $139,840.40 and a total payout of $144,840.40.
But Aaron Rodgers & Co. weren’t up to the task. The Jets lost 37-15.
