KEY POINTS:
SYDNEY - Chokers or not, one punter is prepared to get behind the All Blacks to the tune of A$5 million ($5.92 million) to win the rugby World Cup in France.
With the tournament nearing the quarterfinal stages, New Zealand are the top picks at A$1.71 with Betfair.
"We can't discuss his identity. Unfortunately I can't disclose his country of origin," Betfair spokesman Hugh Taggart said today.
"This is an enormous bet. It's certainly one of the biggest individual bets we've seen on Betfair and one that would normally have bookies running for cover."
South Africa are second pick at A$4.50 with Australia firming to outright third favouritism at A$10.50.
New Zealand's won their only World Cup at home in 1987, being eliminated in the semifinals and finals of the four editions since then.
