someone hit a x3704 odds in sports betting.

But whether this is luck or it could be a really good gambler, although its obvious that its extreme luck, its still important to bet an amount you are not afraid to lose. Losing is more painful if you tend to chase your luck, but still end up losing the amount you aren't comfortable to lose.

I’m sure the bettor carefully analyzed the picks before combining them on a parlay ticket. These are not huge odds on every pick, but once combined they reached that number. So I believe he is good and lucky at the same time to pull off this huge win.

This parlay ticket inspired me. I should not just disregard parlays and conclude that they are only a waste of money. It is already in front of our eyes here, and for as low as $1, this could possibly give us the win we always wanted.

One thing I stopped doing is using other people's wins as fuel to keep chasing wins because the moment you let this get into your head you are going to start gambling desperately just because you want to achieve the same results as others but to win such odds is a function of luck and it's something that you cannot really force.

Honestly speaking am not easily moved by stuff like this, because most times things like this are like petrol that can easily push one into fire that is not prepared for.

 Personally, I don't pressure my self about people's winning because I always know how it is and moreover who knows how much he may have lost before being opportune to win that once. And sometimes if his being drived by greed he can even end up staking almost all or part of his winning just to see if he can still win more. Therefore, for the interest of those that really care. It's not proper for us as a gambler to be going restless or getting worked up over peoples success story because by doing so we wouldn't know when we will start going extra miles or crossing boundaries just to match up that same level of which we wouldn't be pleased by the outcome we may get in return.

I don't doubt that it's possible to win a lot with gambling; I just don't think it's very common. Here in Brazil, I've seen many people win the lottery, but I prefer to be cautious and not get carried away by these stories. This guy was very lucky.

Getting people to get carried away by their feelings is actually one of the oldest and most effective marketing and advertising strategies used within the gambling industry, specially lotteries.
Why do you think lotteries are so eager to make a show on the luck of their winners?
That is done with the intention to encourage as many people as possible to try to emulate the lucky success of those lottery winners.

I have even seen lotteries which pay for an special event and party, in which winners are giver their money in front of hundreds of people. They do that because it is profitable for them to get more people to play.
It is similar on casinos and bookies.

I would not be surprised if the case of this specific guy on facebooks started to be advertised by the casino itself, in order to invite people to join their website.

I don't know what you consider "huge odds" but looking at the picks, the lowest odds was 3.5 and the highest was 4.9. Even the lowest I consider to be "huge odds". 3.5 already signifies the team is a big underdog, which only has around 28% implied probability of winning.

Considering that all seven picks of them have odds 3.5 and above, there must be a lot of luck involved. But it also means the bettor has carefully selected those underdog picks.

On another note, gambling inspiration always comes from the exceptions rather than the rule.

Typically, such boastful posts do more harm than good to other users. Yes, on the one hand, it motivates other users to play, as they realize that winning the jackpot even with a small amount is possible. On the other hand, it creates false illusions and the belief that if someone has won the jackpot, they will too. At the same time, it's safe to say that more than 99% of people will never win the jackpot.

it looks almost unrealistic to win such a huge odds in sports betting. Unlike if the person was playing games like Aviator which can multiply within few seconds of your playing, sports betting does not work like that and therefore it becomes difficult to believe that will happen to someone. I am not disputing that what was said is not true or cannot happen but out of a hundred percent, it's chances of happening will be very slim based on my little experience with gambling so far.

For those who are in doubt that it is possible to win, maybe this can change their mind after seeing the evidence. I do not know the guy personally, but he has a Facebook account that you can verify, and I will share the link.

It will only encourage some people to be stupid as it will encourage them to also try it, but with higher amount of money. But if using just $1 every week to bet on higher parlay, that can still be seen as a good gambler.

It also shows that parlay is not really a waste of money if we just know how to limit our stake.

Anything you do for fun is not a waste of money even if you are losing in that thing, but it is giving you joy and not problem.

Occurrences like this might be rare but they are not unheard of and they are usually the bait for people who gambling entirely for the money they can make from it, hoping for the same results alot of people will try to recreate the same result without for a moment trying to  consider that things like this do not happen all the time, I do hope a winning like this one doesn't push this particular bettor to switch up their already established routine and start spending more on gambling with hopes of winning even more.

~He bet only 100 pesos, which is just a little over $1, and hit a huge jackpot. I know it is mostly about luck, but seeing that it is possible can somehow inspire us.

He's a cool guy. What can I say? If you bet a lot at a time - you lose all your money fast and then you don't have any to fund bets like this. It's that simple. Make small bets with huge odds and one day you'll find yourself on the place of this guy, winning with a tremendous multiplier. Gambling is not a rocket science. Just have fun with it.

Gamblers don't need to triggered by someone else's win, because I don't know person's strategy. Even though we often say that gambling depends on luck, sometimes your strategy matters a lot in gambling. A gambler cannot just rely on luck and hope to get a win in the long run. It will definitely turn against you if you don't help yourself and do what's necessary.

Parlays are pretty good when you're only risking what you can afford to lose, because there's always a chance of losing. So you should only gamble for fun and entertainment.
