A Wellington punter has collected a $250,000 payout from the TAB after successfully picking eight second round NRL winners.

After placing a $5000 multi bet on all eight favourites, the punter needed the Rabbitohs to come through against the Sharks last night to collect his winnings.

The man would have been on the edge of his seat as the Rabbitohs edged out a 14-12 last night.

South Sydney's victory meant the punter took home $250,000 - the maximum payout for any single TAB multi.

It's rare for all TAB favourites to win in any competition, potentially making the bet one of the biggest single payouts on rugby league in TAB history.
