A gambler, staked $4* on 19 games, which gave him a $746 winning potential. All the games came through but remained one, Sporting vs Santa Clara. He picked Sporting to win. Around the 75th minute Sporting was leading 1-0, Sporty, the online bookie offered him a cash out of exactly $444 cash out offer. Which is about 111x his original capital staked.
The gambler, rejected it. As he was gearing for full ecstasy. Alas! around 90+7mins, Santa Clara equalized and the game ended 1-1. He lost his $4, lost $746 and lost $444. Same old stories of gamblers and their greed or whatever other term they use to justify their behavior.
In sports and especially in soccer, things like that happen often. For this incident, I would probably take the cash out option but I also understand if someone doesn't take it. If your parlay has already won 18 of the 19 games and this last match is on and at a favorable time, then you wait to end. It's like the lottery, you can't cash out.
By the way, should the bookie give more cash out percentage? It sounds low compared with the number of games that have already been won.
