Someone was apparently working on an “Uncut Gems” sequel Wednesday night in New York.

Caesars Sportsbook reported that an Empire State bettor hit a 16-leg $6.90 parlay that paid $219,746.19. Yes, that’s right: a payout of about 31,847-1.

Props.com offers details on the long-shot winner that’s like something out of a sports betting movie.
