Multiples

I’ve often posted about football accumulators, and horse racing multiples, as there have been some eye spinning wins over recent years and even months. I don’t recall highlighting a great many Tennis accumulators though, so here’s one to keep you tennis fans dreaming of future riches!

A lucky Ladbrokes punter last month placed a small £5 on an 18-fold tennis bet (£2.30), and 18 17-fold bets. Totalling £5, the resultting win was an incredible £186,574.91.

If that sounds like a major amount to win such such a tiny bet, you’re right, but let’s not underplay how tremendously difficult it is to predict 18 results our of 18. Granted, they’re each result affairs (win or lose) but still! Here’s a list of all 18 game bets that resuled in the huge windfall, along with the accompany betting odds:

 

Guido Andreozzi to beat Stefano Travaglia – 6/5

Javier Marti to beat Daniel Gimeno-Traver – 2/5

Claire Liu to beat Magda Linette – 11/10

Taylor Townsend to beat Heather Watson – 11/10

Ashleigh Barty to beat Sofia Kenin – 11/10

Lara Arruabarrena to beat Beatriz Haddad Maia – 4/9

Elena Vesnina to beat Madison Brengle – 8/15

Irina-Camelia Begu to beat Georgina Garcia Perez – ½

Kristie Ahn to beat Samantha Stosur – 2/1

An impressive profit courtesy of an 8 fold football acca at a Coral bookies back in 2012. Two happy fellas!

An unlucky football fan managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory when he called contacted a bookmaker to cancel a £100 bet that he had intended to place just £10 on. The bet, which was at odds of 30-1, would’ve resulted in a cool £3000 profit, and so it’s sods law that after he successfully cancelled it, it went on to win.

 

The bet, which occured earlier in the year, was for both first scorer and result in a Rangers vs Fraserburgh game, and that was the eventual result. Upon winning, or rather losing on account that he voided the bet, the punter took to twitter to share his misfortunate with a wider audience:

“NEVER change your bet …golden rule” stated on follower. Ain’t that the truth!
