Sports gamblers looking for action have apparently found something to put their money on: table tennis.
I’m dead serious. Russian table tennis is one of the only sports going on in the world that have odds attached to it, and bettors are laying down their money on it … and some are cleaning up on it.
Per the Las Vegas Review-Journal, a gambler in Nevada threw down $100 on a 10-game parlay with William Hill’s app that was all on table tennis games, and the bettor nailed all 10 of the winners. That netted him a whopping $24,741.40.
This is wild stuff. And apparently the money coming in on table tennis is astounding:
