The two teams that will battle it out in Super Bowl LX have been determined. The Seattle Seahawks overcame division rival Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, 31-27, and will face the New England Patriots, who defeated the Denver Broncos, 10-7, in the snow. The unlikely pairing could cost sportsbooks a pretty penny.

The same person staked $50,000 on the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl at +6000, which will return $3m if successful.
Circa Sports also reportedly accepted several similar bets on a Seahawks Super Bowl win in late August, which currently have seven-figure liability for the operator:
