Mattress Mack to receive record sports betting $75 million payout if Astros win World Series

Jim ‘Mattress Mack’ McIngvale is back with another Texas sports team bet and this time he could be on the receiving end of the biggest sports betting payout ever, following the Houston Astros’ epic win against the Seattle Mariners in Game 1 of the ALDS.

The Gallery Furniture owner and notorious gambler who attended Tuesday’s game is one step closer to receiving a massive $75 million payout following the Astros’ 8-7 comeback in the ninth inning.

He placed $10 million in bets on the baseball team he loves to win the World Series, with an average payout of 7.50-to-1.

‘Mattress Mack’ also gives Gallery Furniture customers the chance to double their purchases

And, of course, none other than Gallery Furniture customers would benefit from the 71-year-old potentially entering the sports betting record books.

The company has been promoting owner’s gambling for years, offering consumers free furniture after a certain amount of money spent in the odds of McIngvale’s chosen teams winning championships.

But this time, McIngvale has set a percentage like no other, as he gives customers the chance to double their purchases if the Astros get the Commissioner’s Trophy, according to The Houston Chronicle.

For example, if someone bought $3,000 worth of furniture, he would get $10,000 in return.

McIngvale is worth about $300 million and owns Gallery Furniture in Houston

“When you buy a Tempur-Pedic, Stearns & Foster, or Sealy mattress sleeping set that costs $3,000 or more, and if the Houston Astros win it all in the final championship series of 2022, your purchase is FREE!”, a promotion on Gallery Furniture’s website reads.

‘Come to one of the Gallery Furniture showrooms TODAY and make your qualifying mattress purchase for a chance to get it all FREE FREE FREE!’

McIngvale’s name is well known in the sports betting world, as the maverick, with an estimated net worth of $300 million, is known for placing insane bets.

In April, he went to Lake Charles, Louisiana, to bet that Kansas would win the NCAA Division I men’s basketball tournament. He cashed in $15 million. Gambling is not legal in Texas.

McIngvale went to Louisiana in February to bet $4.5 million on the Bengals who win the Super Bowl, as gambling is illegal in Texas

‘Mattress Mack’ previously bet $9.5 million on the Cincinnati Bengals to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LVI.

2014 also saw his biggest loss to date, with a promotion that essentially provided customers with free furniture if the Denver Broncos defeated the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLVII.

In total, McIngvale is believed to have lost $15.43 million on bets in his lifetime, including on the University of Alabama, the New England Patriots, Tampa Bay and Tennessee Titans who each won the Super Bowl.
