YOU BET WORLD CUP WILL SMASH GAMBLING RECORDS
A FOOTBALL FAN who flew to London purely to place a bet of 85,000 US dollars on a World Cup accumulative wager involving six countries either to qualify or not to qualify from the Group stages of the tournament will collect 199,750 US dollars if the bet is successful.
‘The gentleman told shop staff that he had flown to the country purely to place this bet’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘We’re delighted that he wasn’t booked with a strike-affected BA flight or one affected by volcanic ash and managed to get here – maybe we won’t be so keen to see him again if the bet wins!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
For the bet to win – Argentina, Germany and Italy must all qualify from the Group stages while Algeria, Japan and Honduras fail to do so.
And Hills, who are confident that for the first time a record £1 billion+ will be gambled on the World Cup have also taken a £10,000 bet on Italy winning the World Cup from a Scottish client in Glasgow. ‘The bet was placed over the telephone at odds of 16/1’ added Sharpe.
One William Hill client, from Lytham St Annes in Lancashire, has staked an £8824 double on Brazil winning the World Cup this year AND in 2014 – at odds of 16/1, which will win him £150,008 if it comes off. The same punter has also staked a £5173 double on Argentina to win this year – going on to Brazil to win in 2014 at odds of 28/1, also set to produce a return of £150,017.
Another client has bet 10,000 euros on Germany to win the World Cup at 14/1.
‘The World Cup will smash all gambling records, becoming the first sporting event to produce a £1billion-plus betting turnover.’ said Sharpe.
