A punter won over £10,000 from a remarkable 63p football accumulator over the weekend
A lucky punter won more than £10,000 from a remarkable 20-fold football accumulator with a stake of just 63p at the weekend.
Adam Osbourne revealed the amazing string of successes on Twitter, with Espanyol’s 2-1 win on Sunday night against Leganes in LaLiga the final bet to come in before his dad cashed out for a total win of £10,608.16, following the 25,505.74/1 bet.
In a tweet, Osbourne said that his father was about to close his SkyBet account before the miraculous win, saying: ‘My Dad was ready to close his account and [he] put his last 63p on this’, followed by a crying laughter and clapping emoji.
Then in a video, he shows the moment his dad celebrates in their lounge following the incredible win, screaming: ‘He’s gone and won, come on!’

Among the wins was Manchester United’s comeback against Tottenham on Sunday afternoon
In responding to congratulatory tweets, Osbourne added he had ‘no idea how he pulled it off’, describing it as ‘the bet of the century’ and joking he hopes to ‘get a little drink out of it!’
Included in his accumulator was wins for the likes of Manchester United against Tottenham, Arsenal at Sheffield United and Rangers versus Hibernian in English and Scottish top-flight games.
However, he also placed bets on matches in leagues in Denmark, Sweden, Croatia and Argentina.
In fact, his most nervy game was in the Cypriot First Division – just the second match out of 20 – with AEL Limassol scoring an 84th minute winner against AEK Larnaca, a bet which had odds of 10/11.

The win comes after a couple of punters had monumental wins during the Cheltenham Festival too, with one winning £112,854 from a £2 bet and another claiming £250,000 from a £5 accumulator.
