There was a £20k winner at Ladbrokes this weekend who landed a tremendous 12-fold accumulator. However, a punter at Sky Bet landed themselves over £20 from just an EFL treble. This looks such as simple bet in hindsight and the returns from the £2.50 were through the roof.
The punter had backed both teams to score in each half of three Sky Bet EFL games.
The matches in question were:
Wigan v Ipswich
Northampton v Rochdale
Blackburn v Reading
Interestingly, all three of the selections were tied 1-1 at the break and that was a squeeze as Blackburn’s Danny Graham netted an equaliser for his side in the 44th minute against Reading.
With the respective odds at 28/1, 16/1 and 16/1, the treble paid out £20,852.50 at whopping odds of 8,340/1 in what will have been an incredible early Christmas present. But that was not it for the bookmaker who had to go and payout another big winner as a punter brought home a 13-fold football and racing accumulator. That punter took home £48,000 from a £25 stake at Sky Bet.
The selections in question for that one were:
Unowhatimeanharry to win Long Walk Hurdle – 6/5
Yorkhill to win beginners’ chase at Fairyhouse – 1/8
Newcastle to beat Burton – 8/13
Leeds to beat Brentford – 6/5
Sheffield Wednesday to beat Rotherham – 4/11
Reading to beat Blackburn – 9/5
West Ham to beat Hull – 8/13
Middlesbrough to beat Swansea – evens
Scunthorpe to beat Millwall – 7/5
Doncaster to beat Grimsby – 4/5
Carlisle to beat Yeovil – 4/5
Celtic to beat Dundee – 1/8
Forfar to beat Cowdenbeath – 19/20
