Brian Yankelevitz and Russ Axelrod made a great investment last November.
They placed an initial $300 bet on the Green Bay Packers in the NFL playoffs!
Sunday, the Packers won their eighth consecutive game, upsetting the Dallas Cowboys. Yankelevitz and Alexrod’s initial $300 investment is now worth $28,213.60.
Less than an hour after the Packers defeated the Cowboys on Sunday, Axelrod walked into the Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, cashed the winning ticket vs. Dallas and, according to ESPN.com, placed the entire amount — $28,213.60 — on the Packers to beat the Falcons in the NFC title game Sunday.
