With that kind of money on the table, it's almost a guarantee that cheating is involved. Watch this sidebet hit a few more times more than predicted before Harrah's/Caesar's or whoever their backer is gets wise and pulls the plug. It's too easy to cheat hand dealt card games, that's why the smart casinos don't put up big side bets, at least not with their own money. Progressive side bets and bad beats are funded by the customers so the casinos aren't that concerned about cheating.

The IL lottery shows the odds as 1:10,179,260 since you get two picks for a $1 play. ( You cannot buy a 50c lotto play in IL.)
