As options can grant the buyer significant leverage with each option representing 100 shares, the sum they came up with for the article title is likely a misrepresentation, and if the bet goes wrong notably less money will probably be lost. Either way I don't think articles of this nature are particularly useful however.

He may be actively rolling the date or the price to cash in on red days and re-buy on green days. There's many ways to make a big short bet on a volatile stock pay for itself with day trading until it's no longer a bet and just a free lottery ticket.
