The best two words in sports are “Game 7,” especially for one bettor.
In a weekend where there were a whopping seven Game 7s between the NBA and NHL, Instagram user @stevexnugget decided to try his hand at a parlay involving each of them. According to a screenshot of his ticket obtained by DraftKings, he bet $60 on a moneyline parlay and correctly guessed the winner of each game for a payout of $4,322.99.
That’s five chalk picks: Hurricanes over Bruins, Oilers over Kings, Rangers over Penguins, Flames over Stars and Celtics over Bucks. And two upsets: Lightning over Maple Leafs and Mavericks over Suns.

This parlay also required a little patience, as it took place over two days. Three of the games were on Saturday, with the first starting at 4:30 p.m. ET, and the other four took place on Sunday beginning around 3:30 p.m. and not ending until well after midnight.
It was well worth the wait for Steve, who probably only wishes he put a little more on the parlay. Maybe he’ll go with $70 for the next round of Game 7s.
