Sky Bet Punter turns £6 into £25,000 windfall


Bookmaker Sky Bet had a big payout to hand over on the weekend after a punter cashed out a 10-fold acca on Saturday. The cash out value with nine of the ten selections was for £24,492. The tenth selection in the wager was West Ham and after their crushing defeat at home against Arsenal, the punter clearly made the right choice.

Acca 1

Chelsea 5/2
Crystal Palace 23/10
Stoke 4/7
Sunderland 23/10
West Brom 23/20
Fulham 10/11
Norwich 17/20
Blackburn v Huddersfield draw 11/5
Cardiff v Brighton draw 21/10
£6 bet cashed out for £24,492
West Ham 4/1 (lost)

But that wasn’t all because the punter also had an eight-fold and a nine-fold success as well and the winnings from that took their payout to over £30,000 this weekend. Sky Bet also recorded some other big winners on Sunday as well, notably a 200/1 RequestABet which they received during the Bournemouth v Liverpool game. The bet was for Callum Wilson and Sadio Mane both to score, more than eight corners and Jordan Henderson, Simon Francis and Jack Wilshere all to be carded in the game.

Two Sky Bet punters put separate 50p bets on Bournemouth winning the game when they were out at a price of 250/1 when they had fallen 3-1 down in the game. The Cherries struck back with a brilliant performance to win 4-3. Sky Bet’s Sandro Di Michele said: “It really was a Super Sunday for backers of the winning 200/1 RequestABet. We were certainly impressed as the incredible selection came in!”

Sky Bet also had to pay out on a second big acca win this weekend as well, when a punter from North Yorkshire placed £25 on a 1,081/1 acca which duly came in to deliver £27,000. The wager includes action from both England and Scotland.
