Sky Bet saw their Soccer Saturday price boost landed by punters on Boxing Day. As part of their weekly promotion the bookmaker had raised the price from 4/1 to 6/1 on a treble of Arsenal, Chelsea and West Ham all winning their respective games.
There was an easy time of things for Chelsea as they rolled out a 3-0 home win over Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge and West Ham were enjoying a field day out at Swansea, the Irons posting a 4-1 win in the game.
But then Arsenal, who were finding the resistance of West Brom tough to handle at the Emirates, made punters sweat, before finally getting their breakthrough when Olivier Giroud got the only goal of the game in the 86th minute to give the Gunners the three points.
Sky Bet’s head of public relations Sandro Di Michele said: “It was another Christmas present for backers of the SSPB as we paid out again.
“It’s the third consecutive set of fixtures that the Soccer Saturday or Soccer Special Price Boost has landed and all we can do is congratulate customers and wish them a very merry Christmas.
“We are already getting worried about the Soccer Saturday Price Boost on New Year’s Eve, it could be our biggest payout ever!”
In Sky Bet’s Super Six prediction promotion, the special £1 million jackpot wasn’t won, but three players did split the £10,000 consolation prize. The three punters had landed four score lines each and two results for a score of 24 points and also nailed the right golden goal time of 13 minutes.
