'This is outrageous': Punter turns $8 into $966,290 in Ryder Cup wager
Perhaps this gambler decided to take a shot on the lottery too?!
How often do you look down the timeline to see one of your mates post an accumulator that was closing to coming in, but didn't?
If only, they'll say. If only this person did this I would have been richer beyond my wildest dreams. If only. If only I had wheels I would be a bike. Tedious as they are, the house always wins.
But sometimes, there are bets that sneak through against all the odds. One such bet has emerged on social media of a punter nearly winning $966,290.
The $8 bet was cast at FDSportsbook on a 12-leg Ryder Cup parlay where they got every single match correct. Outrageous.
This is the sports bet of the year.

They predicted:
Rory McIlroy would beat Xander Schauffele
Patrick Cantlay would beat Shane Lowry
Bryson DeChambeau would beat Sergio Garcia
Viktor Hovland would tie versus Collin Morikawa
Dustin Johnson would beat Paul Casey
Brooks Koepka would beat Bernd Wiesberger
Ian Poulter would beat Tony Finau
Justin Thomas would beat Tyrrel Hatton
Lee Westwood would beat Harris English
Tommy Fleetwood would tie versus Jordan Spieth
Daniel Berger would beat Matthew Fitzpatrick
Seriously?! How did they manage that. There were some serious upsets at the Sunday singles. Hopefully this person will be sharing some bets with us in the future.
