PHOTO: Somebody actually hit the jackpot after betting Germany would beat Brazil 7-1
You've got to be one bold gambler to put money on a 7-1 blowout of the World Cup hosts Brazil and pick a player to score who's not known for his offensive abilities.
But that's apparently what one gambler did before Germany dismantled the hosts in the semifinals of the World Cup.
A photo of the online betting slip popped up on Twitter. The unidentified gambler predicted the 7-1 scoreline and boldly put money on German midfielder Sami Khedira to score at anytime. Both came true and this person hit the jackpot.
SICKEST bet ever!! This guy won a fortune on Germany 7-1 and Khedira to score....unbelievable! #BRAvGER pic.twitter.com/uFMRPzt54B

He/she put $20 USD on the scoreline and scorer, which paid them a cool $46,380.00.
Goodness knows how much they made on other bets, assuming this wasn't their lone bet of the day.
