One Station Casinos Sportsbook bettor might have just hit one of the biggest long-shot bets of the 2023 NFL season.
According to a story from the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Monday, the bettor, who is anonymous, placed $250 on a 10-leg parlay for Week 6 in the NFL. Ahead of Monday Night Football's Cowboys vs. Chargers matchup, nine of the legs had already hit. All that was left was a Cowboys win by two or more points for the 799-1 bet to hit.
With the Cowboys defeating the Chargers, 20-17, the anonymous bettor allegedly won $199,750.

Aside from the Cowboys' tight win over the Chargers, the bettor's reported parlay was most in trouble when the Raiders were leading the Patriots, 19-17, with two minutes remaining. The parlay needed a Raiders win by three or more points. Las Vegas defenders Maxx Crosby and Bilal Nichols saved it when they sacked New England quarterback Mac Jones for a safety with 1:47 remaining in the fourth quarter.
