The Super Bowl Streaker, Yuri Andrade won’t be getting that $374,000 he allegedly won for streaking during the big game.
Bovada, the online sportsbook, said they will be ‘voiding’ that bet and any other bet related to streaking and something that could “have knowledge” prior to the game about.
It’s still unclear what Andrade actually bet. He originally said that he bet $50K on himself, but there was a $1,000 limit. He later clarified that he got a bunch of friends to make bets on his behalf and they COMBINED to win $374,000.
Bovada isn’t canceling the whole prop bet. They ARE paying out for those their “internal investigation” concludes did not have insider knowledge of the stunt. And those who bet that nobody would streak during the game will have their wagers refunded. So, they’re trying to make it right for everyone else.
But it won’t be that easy.
At least one person is claiming that Bovada canceled their bets . . . and terminated their account . . . and they had NO knowledge of Andrade’s plan.
This person bet $800.00 that there would be a streaker, and was in line to rake in $6,000.
It’s unclear why their bet was flagged, but for the record, it was for a high amount, it was made using Bitcoin, and it was made three hours before the game.
Bovada didn’t say how they’re determining what is and what isn’t suspicious.
