$5 Bet Could Be Worth $680K After Thursday's NFL Honors Awards Ceremony: Looking At The Players Involved, Why Bettor Wants To Cash Out
Portfolio Pulse from Chris Katje
Martwon Weaver placed a $5 bet with FanDuel, a Flutter Entertainment plc unit, on five NFL awards with a potential payout of $680,960. The bet, which now has a market value of around $200,870, cannot be cashed out traditionally. Weaver, facing financial hardships, seeks to sell the bet through WagerWire. The NFL Honors awards ceremony, airing on CBS and streaming on Paramount+, could make this one of FanDuel's biggest unlikely odds wins.
