Some dude/chick in Australia is down to last leg of a crazy parlay, check out what he/she gets paid
on a 15 dollar bet.....

Holy hell:scared

3rd Test 1st Innings High Bat (Aust v India): Steve Smith: $4.68 (+368) WON
Superbowl XLIX Winner: New England Patriots: $3.50 (+250) WON
2015 Aust Open Winner: Novak Djokovic: $2 (+100) WON
BBL Sydney Sixers High Bat: Michael Lumb: $4.06 (+306) WON
2015 US Masters Winner: Jordan Spieth: $13 (+1200) WON
2014/15 A-League Winner: Melbourne Victory $3.85 (+285) Pending

$15 US Dollars at 6,655.93-1 odds = $99,853.95 US Dollars payout (profit of $99,838.95)


How lucky did he get with the Superbowl win, wow:scared

The A-League soccer final is May 17th, Melbourne Victory are currently in 1st place and look to be
1st seed in the playoffs.

The Australian Sportsbook has offered the customer $30,138 US dollars to cash out now. Would you take it or let it ride?

One hell of a big payout for 15 dollars wagered:scared


So what would you do:shrug:

I would take the $30,138 US dollars.

No way I could handle a loss on the final leg, that would be brutal.

what are odds for his final bet at this time? I dont understand what those odds mean anyway, just trying to figure out if laying off is an option.

Current odds on Melbourne Victory to win it all are +185 to +195 range. There is one more game left in regular season then playoffs start, they are pretty much a lock to be 1st seed in playoffs, 2nd seed at worst.

Being retired, I'd try to squeeze another 10K out of their offer then probably cash out, grab my wife and travel the world for a month or two.

let it ride, it's just $15 you lose...


but really, what 3ppete said, ask more or let it ride because
i guess there aren't decent odds for Melbourne Victory to NOT win it...

if you can't hedge bet 100%, shit happens

Pretty simple, if the 30K is life-changing money for you then take it. Otherwise let it ride and maybe even hedge a little bit to guarantee a profit if/when Melbourne reaches the finals

Brisbane Roar have really been gelling lately. They might be too much. Tough not to hedge it the way Dmitri Petratos has been playing lately. Plus, pitch conditions that time of year might favor teams in better condition. I noticed in their last few games the Victory have been staggering around the 20 ft box on the pitch.

what are the taxes on the 30 grand:shrug::shrug::shrug::shrug::shrug:


Tax free in Aussy.

Just like in Canada.

No taxes paid on lottery winnings, horse racing winnings, casino winnings or sports wagering winnings.
