Bettor turned $13 into $1 million on wild NASCAR parlay thanks to spot-on podcast analysis

When Nick Giffen and Jordan McAbee, hosts of the Stacking Dennys podcast, gave their betting analysis Wednesday for Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Daytona, they made sure to add these disclaimers:

“I’m not expecting these things to happen. I’m just betting them because the probability that it happens is greater than the odds we’re getting,” said Giffen, an analyst for Action Network.

“I can’t recommend any bets this week,” added McAbee of Fantasy Racing Online.

With that bit of information and a few of the hosts’ long-shot favorites, one loyal listener threw $13.49 on a four-leg parlay of top-10 finishers. And it actually cashed for a payout of $999,433.63!

The parlay included bets that Landon Cassill, Cody Ware, B.J. McLeod and David Ragan would all place in the top 10 for +7408700 odds. Cassill placed fourth, Ware sixth, McLeod seventh and Ragan ninth.

“When Jordan says Cassill always finishes and Rotodoc says Ware and McLeod are correlated. Thank you guys so much! Long long time listener and appreciate it so much. Life changing!” the bettor messaged Giffen (@Rotodoc on Twitter).

Rarely is being a loyal listener rewarded so handsomely. This was a bet that not even Giffen and McAbee made, though I’m sure they wish they had.
