CHRISTMAS COMES EARLY

Two big wins this week

For two British gamblers, Christmas came early this week in the shape of big monetary rewards.

First was Peter, a sixty year old from Middlesex, who struck gold at the Playtech-powered At The Races Casino when a GBP 5 side bet on Caribbean Stud Poker displayed a Royal Flush and won him a staggering GBP 125,000. His main bet of GBP 150 won him an additional GBP 30,150 to take his total haul with a single bet to GBP 155,150.

He was so surprised with his win that he immediately placed a GBP 1,000 bet just to make sure it was true. To confirm his good fortune he even won that too. Peter said: "I normally play Blackjack but it wasn’t going as well as normal for me so I switched to Caribbean Stud. How lucky was that?"

Does he plan to spoil himself? "I just might buy myself a Mercedes CL 500," he hinted.

The second biggie went to a lucky chef will be able to afford to pay someone to cook for him this Christmas after winning almost a quarter of a million pounds from bookmakers William Hill with a GBP 20 football bet.

The man in his early thirties placed his bet at a William Hill branch in Exeter and successfully predicted the outcome of fourteen football matches played at the weekend, to serve up a tasty takeaway worth GBP 233,090.20.

”This is one of the biggest football bets ever landed” said William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe,”The man will be able to prepare caviar and lobster for his Christmas lunch and wash it down with the finest champagne. He tells us he will buy a house with his winnings.”
