In the world of sports betting, dreams can turn into life-changing moments with just a bit of luck, strategy, and the right platform to seize the opportunity. WagerWire is proud to spotlight an incredible story of one bettor’s journey: turning $0.85 into a $16,750 payday sale, while the buyer now has a shot at turning that into $147,500.
The Setup: $0.85 and a Dream
This bettor, @unitmetric on X , crafted a legendary 14-leg parlay with astronomical odds of +17353716 (+17 MILLION)—that’s 173,537 to 1! With 13 legs already hitting, the final leg of the bet now hinged on Ohio State Football winning the new expanded College Football Playoff Championship. A long shot, but a dream nonetheless.
The Sale: A Massive +19,706,488 ($16,750) Come-Up
While most WagerWire sales happen organically via user submissions on the platform, @unitmetric saw an intriguing post on our socials. WagerWire was already facilitating another monster Ohio State parlay: a $5000, 5-leg ticket that would win $395,000 (+7918), with OSU as the final leg. Inspired by this, @unitmetric reached out, revealing an even bigger parlay: 14 legs at +17353716 odds, with Ohio State as the last leg. And was looking to sell.
For weeks, Ohio State’s status as a championship favorite had been increasing, driving the value of the ticket higher. However, everything changed when Michigan shocked Ohio State in their home stadium on Thanksgiving weekend, which preceded a tough playoff draw. This created a pivotal moment for @unitmetric: take the guaranteed payout or ride the rollercoaster all the way to the championship game.
After weeks of negotiations and multiple offers from interested buyers, @unitmetric struck a deal with fellow bettor @Thecat123454. The final sale price? $16,750—an incredible profit for @unitmetric, who turned $0.85 into life-changing money. This sale represents staggering odds of +19706488 (19,706 to 1).
The Finish Line: All Eyes on Ohio State
Now, the pressure is on for @Thecat123454, who took over the ticket and will be rooting hard for Ohio State in Saturday’s College Football Playoff game against Tennessee. If the Buckeyes win, it’s still just the beginning—the buyer would need three more wins to secure a payout of $130,000+.
This story showcases the power and innovation behind WagerWire’s secondary marketplace. By enabling bettors to buy and sell active tickets, WagerWire empowers players to take control of their bets as real assets, making fair deals in an open market. It’s about more than just gambling—it’s about ownership, strategy, and life-changing opportunities.
