Currently, if you place a bet on the Cincinnati Bengals to clinch the Super Bowl, the odds stand at +2100. This means for every $100 wagered, $2,100 would be earned if the Bengals emerge victorious.
However, one fortunate bettor has significantly better odds of +83000 due to a successful futures parlay at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Tournament of Bets
This bettor, known as @TheRealMrACL on X, is known for gifting his friends and family futures parlay tickets.
Recently, he placed a $25 futures parlay bet at FanDuel:
- Thunder +227 to win NBA Finals
- Panthers +907 to win the Stanley Cup
- Bengals +2418 to win the Super Bowl
This combination resulted in odds of +41500, but the boost from FanDuel doubled the odds to +83001 (about 830/1).
In the past week, the Thunder defeated Indiana 4-3 in the NBA Finals, and only Joe Burrow and the Bengals are left standing, with hopes of them securing the Lombardi Trophy next February.
If the Bengals deliver a win, the bettor could see his $25 ticket turn into $20,775.33.
Betting on Future Outcomes
In sports betting, the phrase “Bet a little to win a lot” is often echoed, yet occasionally, a bettor will risk a lot for a modest return. One such case involved a bet of $5,000 on Cooper Flagg for the first overall pick in the NBA Draft, with the bettor only gaining a meager $5 if the prediction comes to fruition.
Super Bowl Futures
There’s already notable betting activity related to Super Bowl odds. A customer at Caesars wagered $90 on the New Orleans Saints at +30000, reflecting long odds due to their current quarterback situation.
Yet, in the improbable event the Saints triumph, the payout could rise to $27,000.
In a standout wager from June 5, a BetMGM client placed an astounding $8 million bet on the Thunder -700 against the Pacers, gaining nearly $1.143 million after their Finals victory.
With substantial bets frequently made on intriguing parlay combinations, bettors are reminded to wager responsibly and never bet more than they can afford to lose.
