NFL bad beat: BetMGM took a $100,000 bet on under 53.5 points for Chiefs-Texans. It ended at 54 points

The bettor who took under 53.5 for the NFL’s opening game had to feel pretty good for most of Thursday night.

And the last couple minutes had to be excruciating.

BetMGM had a $100,000 bet on the under for the Kansas City Chiefs-Houston Texans game on Thursday night. That bet would have won $90,909.10. There were 31 points through three quarters.

You already know how this story turns out.

A Tyreek Hill touchdown early in the fourth quarter wasn’t the best news for under bettors, but there were still just 38 points scored at that point.
