RJ Bell, an oddsmaker who also provides betting lines to the Associated Press, claims that a mystery gambler made an $8 million bet on last night’s Game 6 and won. Bell says he picked the first five games of the Series before that to get to is current total. Which, after last night, stands at $14 million.
And he’s letting it ride tonight.
Here’s Bell’s tweet thread with the info. I imagine it could be someone pulling his leg, but we’re going to file this under “I’ll believe it until I hear otherwise because it’s just too good.”

Only betting history in Vegas = MONSTER bets in UFC. One source tells me he’s also undefeated on those bets!
One source swears this bettor is just a beard for a mysterious group. Others say pros would NOT bet the bad odds this guy is accepting.
