A mystery Betfair punter made what must be one of the greatest cash outs of all time on Boxing Day which paid out a total of £223,000 from a £1 stake.
The festive all football accumulator was made up of 21 legs and included Plymouth to beat Wycombe in a game that ended 3-3 with a 90th minute equaliser from Myles Weston.
Naomi Totten, Spokesperson at Betfair, said: “Cash Out gives customers the ultimate control over their bets and this is surely the mother of all Cash Outs from the mother of all accumulators. The customer nailed 20 results of their 21 selections before going on to correctly predict that Plymouth wouldn’t hold their nerve against Wycombe.
“And with an impeccably timed Cash Out they chose to take £223k just 4 minutes before Wycombe bagged the equaliser that would have agonisingly seen the punter take home nothing. Some way to end Christmas!”
This 21 fold accumulator win follows another recent accumulator cash out which didn’t quite go the customer’s way at Colossus Bets after an exceptionally late Liverpool goal saw them miss out on a six figure plus pot.
