The usual formula is a tiny across as many legs as possible. Six selections, and a stake of ₦25,000.
The result was ₦29,890,450.22.

The arithmetic
Every selection on this coupon was priced between 2.45 and 3.85. Stack six prices in that range and you reach 1,086.93.
Compare that to the more common approach. Twenty legs at 1.40 each also lands somewhere near 1,000, but it requires twenty separate outcomes instead of six.
Each additional leg is another chance for the whole slip to collapse. You cannot pad a six-leg coupon with safe picks. Every selection has to earn its place.
The stake is the other half of the story
The stake here is a hundred times what a typical big-payout coupon carries. That is what converted a modest 1,086.93 multiplier into a thirty million naira return.
Two levers control your return, and most bettors only ever adjust one. Adding legs increases the multiplier and the failure risk together. Increasing the stake increases only the return and the amount you can lose.

The honest caveats
The downside here is not trivial. This player was risking an amount that matters, on six selections the bookmaker rated as underdogs. Stake what you can lose without it affecting your month, regardless of what the coupon looks like.
Six underdogs landing together is still a rare event. Backing six underdogs will lose far more often than it wins, which is exactly what the odds say.
These were specific calls in specific competitions. Two of the six were away underdog wins in Eastern European competition, which suggests the player was following those leagues closely rather than picking from a list.
Details Worth Noting
At six selections, this is by some distance the shortest of the recent big-winner slips. The 3.85 on Rapid 1923 was the biggest single price on the coupon. One selection was a draw, Nurnberg 2-2 Legia Warsaw at 3.35. Every leg was priced above 2.45, meaning no selection on the coupon was a favourite. Petrolul Ploiesti and FC Polissya Zhytomyr both won by three clear goals. ₦25,000 is an unusually large stake for a multi-leg accumulator. A four-figure multiplier produced an eight-figure payout because of stake size alone.
If you take one thing from this slip, make it the stake rather than the selections. Enter YOHAIG at registration to claim up to ₦100,000 on your first deposit.
