Remarkable Bets: Bettor Transforms $200 into $290,000 with Six-Leg Parlay

A Shift in the Betting Landscape

In recent NBA playoffs, underdogs have achieved an amazing record, covering the spread and winning outright. In the early games of the second round, underdogs boasted a perfect 6-0 record, highlighting their surprising success.

The Indiana Pacers managed to clinch two victories against the Cleveland Cavaliers, while the New York Knicks shocked everyone by defeating the reigning champions, the Boston Celtics.

For those willing to bet on underdogs, the rewards have been substantial.

Remarkable Parlay Wins

A customer at FanDuel Sportsbook decided to test the waters with a mere $2 bet. This wager took the form of a four-team moneyline parlay consisting of:

Nuggets at +700 against the Thunder in Game 1
Pacers at +320 against the Cavaliers in Game 2
Warriors at +245 against the Timberwolves in Game 1
Knicks at +385 against the Celtics in Game 2

A thrilling last-second three-pointer from Aaron Gordon secured a Denver win, followed by Tyrese Haliburton clinching the second leg of the parlay with another three-pointer.

Despite a setback for the Warriors with Steph Curry exiting due to injury, they triumphed, and the Knicks executed a remarkable comeback for a final score of 91-90.
Total odds added up to an impressive +56121, meaning the bettor turned their $2 into $1,124.

Another Floorshaker

Another FanDuel customer successfully capitalized again with a different parlay:

Knicks at +300 against the Celtics in Game 1
Nuggets at +380 against the Thunder in Game 1
Pacers at +340 against the Cavs in Game 2
Warriors at +245 against the Timberwolves in Game 1

This parlay boasted odds of +20945, equating to approximately 290/1. Utilizing a $2 bonus bet allowed the customer to walk away with $580.91.

A Life-Changing Wager

Another bettor placed a six-leg moneyline parlay with a hefty $200 stake. The parlay’s odds were immense at +72599, nearly 726/1, which doubled to +145216 through a profit boost, leading to a $290,432 payout when all bets were won.

As the playoffs progress, excitement around these bets continues to escalate, bringing both significant winnings and consequent risks to those participating.
