Absolute Madman's 15-Leg Point Spread Parlay Was Worth Six Figures Going Into MNF
A DraftKings bettor put $10 on a 15-leg point spread parlay at +1650477 odds. The first 14 legs hit. Monday Night Football was worth a life-changing payout.

Sometimes you hear about a bet so absurd, so monumentally insane, that you have to just sit back and appreciate the sheer audacity of it. This is one of those bets.
A DraftKings customer put $10 — ten fucking dollars — on a 15-leg point spread parlay covering every NFL game from Saturday afternoon through Monday night. The odds? +1650477. That's roughly 16,505-to-1. The potential payout was in the six figures.
And heading into Monday Night Football, this absolute psychopath had hit the first 14 legs.
The Quick Hit
- The bet: $10 on a 15-leg point spread parlay
- The odds: +1650477 (approximately 16,505/1)
- Status going into MNF: 14 of 15 legs hit
- The stakes: Six-figure payout riding on one game
Let's Talk About the Balls on This Bettor
Fifteen legs. Point spreads. Every game from Saturday through Monday. This isn't a casual bet — this is someone who looked at the entire NFL slate and said "I know exactly how every single game is going to go against the spread."
And they were right. Fourteen times in a row, the games played out exactly as this person predicted. Chiefs game? Hit. Eagles? Hit. Steelers? Hit. Every single underdog and favorite that needed to cover, covered.
Going into the 49ers-Colts game, this ticket was alive. One more cover, and this ten-dollar lottery ticket was worth life-changing money.
The Parlay Mentality
Look, we all know parlays are generally a bad idea from a pure expected value standpoint. The books love them because the juice compounds, and the more legs you add, the more the odds tilt in the house's favor.
But every once in a while, someone hits. And when they hit big, it reminds us all why we keep throwing these ridiculous tickets out there. It's not about the math. It's about the dream.
This bettor understood that. They didn't put $1,000 on this. They put $10. That's responsible degeneracy right there. You throw a Hamilton at the universe and see if the universe throws back a house.
Week 16's Parlay Madness
This wasn't even the only insane parlay action of the weekend. According to FOX Sports' Big Bets Report:
-
One bettor put $9 on a parlay of three games going to overtime — the Pelicans-Rockets, Mavs-Pistons, and Rams-Seahawks. All three went to OT, and at +111700 odds, the bettor won $10,053.
-
At Fanatics, a customer strung together a six-leg anytime touchdown parlay for $10 at +112513 odds. It hit by halftime.
-
A Caesars customer hit a six-leg, $25 parlay for $60,612.50 using a Super Parlay boost.
Week 16 was absolutely wild for parlay bettors. The variance gods were smiling down on the degenerates.
The Bottom Line
We may never know if that 15-leg parlay ultimately cashed — the 49ers dominated the Colts 48-27, so if the bettor had San Francisco covering, they're currently house shopping. If they had the Colts, well... 14 out of 15 is still a legendary run.
Either way, this ticket is a reminder of what makes sports betting so intoxicating. You can turn $10 into a story you'll tell for the rest of your life. Sometimes the crazy bets hit. And when they do, it's beautiful.
Keep firing those parlays, degenerates. Responsibly.
