Five monumental moments in the world of sports betting have left many in awe, with payouts ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. First, in 2000, a shrewd bettor placed a $20,000 wager on the Baltimore Ravens to win the Super Bowl at 22-1 odds, earning a $560,000 windfall. In 2015, a British punter, too, made a bold 5,000 to 1 shot on Leicester City to claim the Premier League title, pocketing a substantial £200,000. A 15-leg parlay bet for a staggering $105,000 payout by Taylor Poglia, the third-largest winner on this list, caught the attention of many. Next, Vegas Dave put his trust in the Kansas City Royals to win the World Series at 30 to 1 odds, earning a whopping $2.5 million. Last but not least, James Aducia, a newcomer to sports betting, made an 85,000-dollar bet on Tiger Woods to win the 2019 Masters at 14-1 odds, taking home an impressive $1.2 million. While these victories will be remembered for a long time, many more stories of daring bets and even more remarkable wins remain waiting to be written.
