Navy is without doubt one of the nice surprises of the school soccer season. For that matter, so is Military, its fellow service academy.

The Midshipmen are 5-0 straight up (SU) and 4-1 towards the unfold (ATS), whereas the Black Knights are good on each counts at 5-0 SU and ATS.

However for our functions, let’s deal with Navy.�

Why? As a result of this previous weekend, the biggest reported guess — on both school soccer Week 6 odds or NFL Week 5 odds — landed on the Midshipmen.

Extra on that main wager and different notable parlay winners/large bets from school soccer Week 6 and NFL Week 5 betting.

Anchors Aweigh!

Navy opened as a 9-point highway favourite towards Air Power. By the point kickoff rolled round Saturday, the Midshipmen have been as much as -10.5.

However one excessive curler bought the perfect of the quantity, placing a whopping $215,000 on Navy -9. The quantity ended up not mattering in any respect, as Navy drilled Air Power 34-7 to simply win and canopy.�

So the client banked a revenue of $195,650 (whole payout $410,650).�

That’s fairly good ROI for just a few days’ wait.

Parlay Partay

How a couple of seven-leg same-game parlay for a nominal $40, that cashes out for $9,600 in revenue? That’s what one DraftKings Sportsbook buyer put collectively in Sunday’s Bears–Panthers recreation.�

All seven legs hit comparatively simply. The one semi-close parts: Panthers QB Andy Dalton didn’t throw an interception till 4 minutes into the third quarter, and Cole Kmet had 57 receiving yards, just some above the mandatory 50.

At Caesars Sports activities, a bettor put $64 on a nine-leg parlay of participant props for Thursday’s Buccaneers–Falcons recreation:

Chase McLaughlin Over 1.5 made area objectives
Kyle Pitts Over 30.5 receiving yards
Ray-Ray McCloud Over 3.5 receptions
Kirk Cousins Over 235.5 passing yards
Cade Otton Over 29.5 receiving yards
Drake London Over 5.5 receptions
Younghoe Koo Over 1.5 made area objectives
Darnell Mooney Over 46.5 receiving yards
Baker Mayfield Over 1.5 passing TDs

With all these Over performs, it labored out properly that the client bought a high-scoring recreation. Atlanta received 36-30 in additional time, and all 9 legs hit.�

In order that 64 bucks changed into a hefty $9,536.

A FanDuel Sportsbook buyer determined to maintain it extra cheap with a $25 two-leg parlay: Commanders operating again Brian Robinson Jr. to attain the primary TD of the sport vs. the Browns; and Ravens operating again Derrick Henry to attain the primary TD towards the Bengals.

Robinson and Henry discovered paydirt first of their respective video games. So a $25 guess at +3725 odds (37.25/1) profited a tidy $931.25 (whole payout $951.25).

And right here’s the Everyone And Your Mom Parlay from DraftKings, which greater than 44,000 prospects performed and received on, betting anytime landing scorers:�

At odds of +2416, a $100 guess would’ve profited $2,416.

Straight-Wager Success

How a couple of couple straight bets that popped, avoiding the potential anguish that parlays have a tendency to supply?

It took till the third quarter for both Dallas or Pittsburgh to attain a landing on Sunday night time. However when Steelers tight finish Connor Heyward broke by, it paid out large. A FanDuel buyer put $55 on Heyward +10000 (100/1) to attain the primary TD and profited a cool $5,500.�

A DraftKings buyer used a $250 bonus guess — a free trip — on an in-game wager of Falcons wideout Khadarel Hodge +1400 to attain a landing at any time. Because it turned out, Hodge made the game-winning 45-yard TD catch-and-run as Atlanta beat Tampa Bay 36-30 in additional time Thursday.

The bettor cashed out for $3,500.

I Like Large Bets And I Can’t Lie

Let’s wrap it up with some main wagers, of which there have been just a few this weekend at Caesars Sports activities:

$115,000 49ers -7 vs. Cardinals. San Fran suffers a shocking 24-23 upset loss. So the home saved this one.
$110,000 Bears -3.5 vs. Panthers. Chicago rolls 36-10, so the bettor earnings $100,000 (whole payout $210,000).
$110,000 Ravens -2.5 vs. Bengals. Baltimore wins 41-38 in additional time. Bettor earnings $100,000 (whole payout $210,000).
$110,000 Vikings -2.5 vs. Jets. Minnesota wins 23-17. Bettor earnings $100,000 (whole payout $110,000).
$110,000 Falcons -1.5 vs. Bucs. Atlanta wins 36-30 in OT. Bettor earnings $100,000 (whole payout $210,000).
$100,000 Ravens +850 to win the Tremendous Bowl. If Baltimore wins all of it, then the bettor earnings $850,000 (whole payout $950,000).
$90,000 Payments +950 to win the Tremendous Bowl. If Buffalo does so, then the bettor earnings $855,000 (whole payout $945,000).
$25,000 Syracuse moneyline +196 vs. UNLV. The Orange win 44-41 in additional time. Bettor pockets $49,000 in revenue ($74,000 whole payout).

Lastly, simply to remind you all that that is playing, and plenty of bets lose: In school soccer Week 6 odds at DraftKings, the most-bet participant yardage prop was on Boise State phenom Ashton Jeanty to hurry for 191 or extra yards vs. Utah State.

At halftime, Jeanty had 13 carries for a whopping 186 yards and three TDs. Bettors wanted him to get simply 5 extra yards within the second half, a digital lock, proper?

The issue: Boise State was already up 49-17. And when you don’t know already, I’ll guess you may guess what occurred.

Yep, Jeanty sat out the remainder of the sport. And all these 191-plus speeding yards tickets ended up within the trash.�

So at all times take into accout, by no means guess greater than you may afford to lose.
