A bold wager carrying 200-to-1 odds made by an unnamed gambler was the talk of social media. Then the bet went bust.
That is the essence of a bold wager, carrying 200-to-1 odds, placed by an unnamed gambler. The wager, which rapidly made the rounds on social media on Monday, was placed in November, waaay before the NCAA’s selection committee identified all 68 teams that would compete in March Madness.
ESPN interviewed the bettor on Monday, but didn’t name that person. SuperBook director John Murray, in the same article, described the bettor to ESPN as “a well-known player who takes a lot of futures positions with us.” The wagerer also made a losing $1,500 bet on Michigan State at 40-1, ESPN reported.
Luke Pergande, co-founder of ticket exchange market PropSwap.com, a secondary sport-betting exchange, had this to say to about the wager to Philly.com, the Philadelphia Inquirer’s digital site: “It’s one of the best sports bets I’ve ever seen.”
