minstral 5,375 Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 yes thats right he thought it was easy money to make, can you imagine him right now. He must have it to spend though. Still, 800000 is a big dent in the wallet. All for the small gain of 1000. Poor guy. thats what i thought kev, but its greed risking all that money to win 1000 pounds, but you would think it was easy money with a minute to go.

Jasper 155 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Sorry mate, but youre mistaken. Its impossible that those figures are correct. The lowest price you can bet on with Betfair is 1.01. Therefore, to win £1000 he would only have to bet £100,000 (lol- only). Unless he really did bet 800,000, which would have won him £8000 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
