    But before you call Mark “lucky”, consider the fact he cashed in a covers.com/articles/articles.aspx?theArt=323252.
    Wonder if he has even been paid that 52k from June? Wonder if this is real at all

    How could SBR still rate them D- if they did pay out a $50K+ request.

    Something sounds fishy.

    Well I gather "cashing" in means winning, not actually receiving the money.

    No way this guy is a heavy hitter.

    Just a guy that puts his entire bankroll in play over and over.

    Read the article. He'll be broke soon.

    Anyone really know the guy on any forum? It's a Covers article. Like I trust what they say. They'd rob your grandmother if they had a chance to.

    Hi! I just feel like laying 4k on a 5 team parlay please. garbage.

    So if he is an American resident. How does he cash out? Anything "above ground" would have to be filtered through the IRS correct. I would want that in straight cash. No way Im going to my bank with an overseas 150K check. Take the cash and *********** my way through life the next year or so..

    Someone should post a line how much of the 151k he ends up seeing in actual cash. If he sees 50 I will be shocked. Obviously I hope he sees it all, just not optimistic . This isn't pinnacle by a long shot

    This is a perfect example of what SBR should monitor and pass along the findings of, in order to help the posters understand the complexities of off shore gambling.

    SBR John, PLEASE make this happen.

    Guys in here need help, and direction.

    This is a home run for players as well as management if followed up on.

    Thanks in advance SBR.

    I agree maybe a PR move. I would hope so, because What a dumb ass rookie move betting that parlay at sportsbook. Jesus

    oy vey. i would be sweating it out if i won that much on sportsbook.com. I would transfer as much as possible each week to other books. A lot of books let you do this. not sure about that crap site

    wish i followed that philosophy. I had over 225 k in my accounts last spring and only cashed out about 100k. thought the king midas run would never end and got greedy. Funny i told myself once i get to 250k I'll take a break and cash it out but how can u stop when you are that on fire. A nice losing streak and betting way too much (10k per game) in chase mode was not fun. Since cashing out that 100k i spent over 25k partying/ vacations/ fancy dinners, bar tabs, etc. Was a wild summer. Not fun getting crushed this fall. Probably gave close 30k back and have the other 50k invested in the stock market. Even though i won that money still feels like im down. I can relate to this guy. Ive hit over 20 parlays that have paid over 10k, best 40k win. I'm a streaky gambler that would probably be around 50% if i grinded away on just straight bets. But i am very streaky and have a good feel for a lot of the leagues where going undefeated on the day happens from time to time and i usually have a parlay that pays me big if this happens. If the nets won tonight i would've made 15k on a 9 team parlay. I had chalked it up as a loss and went to hockey thinking the heat -2.5 bet was already sunk midway thru 3rd quarter and nets down 8. Was shocked to see the heat final win by 3 when my game ended and immediately scrolled to the nets boxscore only to be rooster teased. I'll be firing out more tomorrow and hope to get lucky.

    I don't believe this story one bit. Nobody would ever risk 4k on a 5 teammer. It's pathetic that Covers posted this garbage. Talk about reaching.
