It was like an accident on the side of the highway… I couldn’t help but look. I saw this article on a man who put $132,300 dollars on India to win the 2011 Cricket World Cup at 3-1 odds. I’ve heard of some serious bets before so it’s not so much the dollar amount that scares me, but I just wanted to take a peak at what this Cricket World Cup was all about.

The Sportsbook in London said this was the largest single-day wager ever placed with them. They also said they are shitting their pants, praying India doesn’t win. India are the favorites as they are ranked tops in the world. Do top ranked teams always win tournaments like this? Usually not.

Either way, I know this isn’t thrilling, but I thought it was pretty funny. If the dude wins he takes home close to $400,000. I say we all put a grand on India! This guy knows something.
