Super Bowl 2019: Someone put a $1.5 million bet on the Rams to beat the Patriots
And get this: It's the same person who bet $1 million on the Eagles in Super Bowl LII
by Cody Benjamin


The New England Patriots are favored in the Super Bowl for the third year in a row, but that isn't stopping people from betting on the Los Angeles Rams.

It's especially not stopping the person who went all in on the Philadelphia Eagles a year ago with a $1 million wager.

As SB Nation reported Saturday, sportsbook operator William Hill has received another substantial bet from the same person responsible for the Eagles bet -- this time with a $1.5 million wager that the Rams will upset the Patriots on Sunday.

"The money-line wager came with a price of +120, which means [the bettor] would net $1.8 million" if Los Angeles wins, SB Nation's David Fucillo noted. "The Patriots had been getting 73 percent of the money-line wagering earlier this week. That number has now swung to 72 percent Rams. A $1.5 million wager will do that to the handle."

Who wins Patriots vs. Rams? And which side of the spread has all the value, making it a must-back? Visit SportsLine now to see which side of the spread you need to jump on, all from the computer model that has returned nearly $4,000 to $100 bettors over the past two seasons!

It's not the only big bet on the Rams' side entering Super Bowl LIII, which you can stream right here on CBSSports.com. According to Fucillo, South Point recently received its own $300,000 moneyline wager on the Rams.

The Patriots are currently 2.5-point favorites entering Sunday's showdown. They were also favored in Super Bowl LI and Super Bowl LII, the first of which they won against the Atlanta Falcons followed by last season's loss to the Eagles.

Talked about this in another thread too, but he also started with a million on game 1 winner of 2017 World Series and continued to do double or nothing for next 5 games and went perfect 6-0 and followed it up with that eagles bet. Quite the success rate

I can already see saints fans claiming he bet on the Rams 2 weeks ago and paid off the officials to guarantee his win.

I'm kind of a bit surprised that bettors are going in this direction in those numbers. Patriots at -2.5 is almost a pickem line. There are a lot of people that are confident in the outcome I guess.

Is it an "upset" with this thin of a point spread?

Betting the Rams to upset the Pats. He must have talked to the refs already.

#2 Refs get 10% of those earnings.

Surprised to hear them quote Fucillo. Known Rams hater, 49ers lover.
