This week, Darren Rovell shared that Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale has bet $1.5 million at DraftKings on TCU to win outright over top-ranked Georgia.

McIngvale owns and operates the Gallery Furniture chain based in Houston. He made headlines this past fall for collecting a historic $75 million in payouts for bets on the Houston Astros to win the World Series. ESPN notes that McIngvale uses betting to mitigate risk of his Gallery Furniture promotions. In 2022, he offered customers a refund of double their money for spending $3,000 or more if the Astros won the World Series.
