Street sweeper 'rubbished' odds


A HARROW street sweeper won more than £50,000 after putting just £5 on an accumulator bet.

Roland Kolaveri, 27, collected £50,535 from William Hill in Kentish Town after betting on Friday for 14 football teams to win.

Rupert Adams, a spokesman for the bookmakers', said: "This guy has rubbished the odds and has really taken us to the cleaners."

The football teams Mr Kolaveri bet on are: Chesterfield, Mk Dons, Schalke, Stuttgart, AC Milan, Juventus, Ajax, Crystal Palace, Coventry, Sheff Wed, Stockport, Hull, Peterborough and Hereford.

[Lawnchair Bes]

that's because you don't win

how's this for a headline "Local boy loses again"

It's either pure brilliance or pure luck.

I wonder how he could win a bet on Ajax, that match was cancelled.

Just luck.

If the game is postponed and if it isn't played the day after, or it is canceled, then the coefficient for that game is counted as 1.0. Meaning as if you didn't even play the game, all other coefficients are multiplied as normal.

Ah, thanks for the info.

Perhaps it's treated differently in other countries, but that's how they do it here. But one things for sure, if a game isn't played your ticket is still good.

[V]

I just won a few bucks by betting $7 on Juve to beat Napoli. I have $10.5 now.

Yeah I know, nothing special.

 

[Rhizoid]

the $10 winnings placed on Birmingham to win vs. Newcastle @2.30 odds.

Although I hate blue scum.

 

[Fred]

why would anyone waste his energy hating Birmingham?

 

[Cuti]

Being a Villa fan(at least thats what i think he is) means brum are your city rivals

 

[Fred]

Oh ya i know they're rivals, but i never thought Rhizoid was a Villa fan :confused2

 

[Cuti]

I'm just assuming since he has a picture of a Villa player, his user title is Juve_Villan and his signature is written in claret and blue

 

[Rhizoid]

Oh ya i know they're rivals, but i never thought Rhizoid was a Villa fan :confused2

I like both. Been a Juve fan for more than a decade...but Villa "casually" since Benito Carbone's days (my avatar), suddenly I realised myself watching them more often.

And I lost the bet.
