Once again the luck of the Irish was smiling down on a Paddy Power punter as one hit the bookmaker for €20k in midweek. The day before a different punter had claimed over €132k on two accas at Paddy Power which included a huge punt on Crystal Palace getting their first win in nine Premier league matches, with the Eagles beating out Bournemouth away from home.
Wednesday’s winning bet needed some fortune too as the bettor landed landed €20,546 from just a €25 stake. In the sevenfold accumulator, there were selections from England, Scotland, the French and Belgian cups and some some club friendly matches a well.
It pretty much all boiled down to Sam Vokes netting a winner for Burnley at Turf Moor over Leicester and it was a controversial winner from the Welshman as well, who appeared to control the ball with his hand before sticking it in the onion bag for the 1-0 win. The punter wouldn’t have cared though but that wasn’t the only last drama in the bet.
There was also an 81st minute penalty from Sebastien Corchia for Lille to beat Nantes 1-0, along with a late fightback from Austria lower league outfit ASK Mannersdorf, who came from 2-1 down to win 3-2 at Wienerberg (don’t laugh) with goals in the 76th and 79th minute. Also, KV Oostende, Motherwell and Le Mont Sur Lausanne all just held on to slender single goal leads
