Station Casinos bettor turns $50 into $135K on NCAA parlay
LV REVIEW JOURNAL SUBSCRIPTIONA Station Casinos Sports bettor turned $50 into $135,105 on Friday after hitting an eight-team parlay on the NCAA Tournament.
The gambler correctly picked five underdog winners on the money line, including Yale at 6-1, and three teams against the spread.
Here are the legs for the parlay, which was a 2,702-to-1 long shot:
— Utah State ML (+155), beat Texas Christian 88-72.
— James Madison ML (+195), beat Wisconsin 72-61.
— Yale ML (+600), beat Auburn 78-76.
— Grand Canyon (+195), beat Saint Mary’s 75-66.
— Connecticut (-27½, -110), beat Stetson 91-52.
— Houston (-24, -110), beat Longwood 86-46.
— Purdue (-26½, -110), beat Grambling 78-50.
— Northwestern ML (+150), beat Florida Atlantic 77-65 in overtime.
The bettor survived a few close calls along the way to the six-figure payday.
Yale, a 14½-point underdog, erased a 10-point deficit to Auburn midway through the second half and held on for the upset win after Samson Aletan made a key block during a wild scramble in the final seconds and K.D. Johnson missed a 3-pointer with one second left.
Northwestern recovered to beat Florida Atlantic in overtime after squandering a nine-point lead in the second half. Brooks Barnhizer’s driving layup tied it with nine seconds left in regulation, and Johnell Davis missed a 3-pointer for the the Owls with two seconds to play.
Purdue covered when Carson Barrett made a 3 with 37 seconds left for the final margin, and Tra’Michael Morton missed a 3 for Grambling with nine seconds left.
