Jim McIngvale also known as Mattress Mack is a very giving person but he also likes to have fun betting on sports. Especially his Houston Astros who are once again playing in the World Series up against the Philadelphia Phillies. The series is currently underway and it could go either way, but if the Houston Astros end up pulling off the victory that means Mattress Mack is going to be winning $75 million dollars! 

If Mattress Mack gets paid the $75 million for the Astros winning the World Series that will also mean he would be receiving the largest payout on a single legal sports bet in U.S. history. The huge bet has been in place since May when Mattress Mack put down $3 million with the Caesars Sportsbook at 10-to-1 odds. Obviously, that would bring him $30 million dollars off that one bet alone.

You Can’t Help but Cheer for Mattress Mack 

Beyond loving to gamble on his favorite teams Mattress Mack is always giving back like recently when he was giving away mattresses in Atlantic City to military personnel, veterans, and first responders. The guy helps out so many people without expecting anything in return, that’s just who he is as a person. 

Mattress Mack Has Multiple Bets on the Astros to Win the World Series 

Beyond the $3 million with Caesars Sportsbook, Mattress Mack also bet $2 million with BetMGM, $2 million with Barstool Sports, and $1 million each with Wynn, Unibet, and Betfred. If the Astros win the series everyone is going to be paying Mattress Mack.  

While I don’t have a team I am rooting for in the series, I am rooting for Mattress Mack to bring home the big payday!
