College football Week 5 odds were all the rage, primarily because of the massive Georgia vs. Alabama showdown Saturday night.
If you had a hard time deciding between the two teams but still wanted some action, then perhaps a single-game touchdown parlay would’ve been a good avenue for you.
It certainly was for one DraftKings Sportsbook customer, who turned $100 into $27,100.
More on that and other notable parlay winners and major wagers from college football Week 5 and NFL Week 4 betting.
Touchdown Celebration
Among many offerings, DraftKings allows customers to parlay Anytime Touchdown scorers within a single game. As I like to remind people, parlays are a bookmaker’s best friend, whether single-game or multi-game or on player props, etc.
The more legs you add to your bet, the bigger the advantage for the sportsbooks. Parlays are what keep the lights on for sportsbooks.
Still, while keeping that in mind, it’s nice to celebrate these turn-a-little-into-a-lot wagers.
In the Georgia-Alabama tilt, one bettor put in a $100 four-leg Anytime TD parlay of Georgia wideout Arian Smith, Georgia running back Trevor Etienne, Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe and Alabama wideout Ryan Williams.
That parlay had odds of +18000 — or in more relatable form — 180/1. But the customer was also able to utilize a 50% odds boost. That pushed the odds to +27000, or 270/1.
All four players scored in Alabama’s wild 41-34 victory. Williams provided the thrilling capper to the four-leg parlay, scoring on a 75-yard pass play with 2:18 remaining, which ultimately gave ‘Bama the big win.
And ultimately gave that bettor a huge win. The $100 bet netted $27,000 in profit ($27,100 total payout).
Parlay Partay
An NFL bettor at DraftKings had an even better ROI with a $10 three-leg player-prop parlay:
