Football really is the world game and one of our punters took advantage of this fact in the past week to turn $200 into $44,225.42 with an incredible 13-leg multi.
This punter travelled right around the world with this multi and overcame a couple of nervous moments to complete what really was a legendary land.
This epic multi started on Thursday morning in the English Premier League when West Ham ($1.67), Liverpool ($1.67) and Manchester United ($1.37) were successful against Watford, Everton and Crystal Palace respectively.
He then turned his attention to the Seria A in Italy and got a couple more legs home, but not without plenty of nervous moments.
Juventus were able to cruise to victory against Lazio, but Roma trailed Torino 2-1 with just five metres left in the match before a couple of moments of magic from an evergreen Francesco Totti got Roma home and kept our punter’s multi alive.
Spain was the nest destination for the multi and Atletico Madrid were able to get the job done over Athletic Bilbao thanks to a rare Fernando Torres goal.
The Dutch Eredivise was next on the agenda and Ajax gave our football guru another leg with their comfortable 2-0 victory over Heerenveen.
Our punter took a quick detour away from the football world to get stuck into some NBA Playoffs action and he moved closer to his massive payday when Miami Heat ($1.18) beat the Charlotte Hornets and the Los Angeles Clippers ($1.29) dispatched of the Portland Trail Blazers.
The Norwegian Football League – known as the Tippeligaen – does not have the same profile in Australia as the English Premier, La Liga, Bundesliga or Serie A, but our punter will never forget after it got him extremely closer to his $44,225.42 windfall.
Defending champions Rosenborg ($1.75) solidified their position on top of the Tippeligaen ladder with their win over Tromso, while 2015 champions Molde ($1.56) proved too strong for Valerenga.
On Saturday night the multi returned to where it all began in the English Premier League and our punter required just two more victories to take home the spoils.
A ruthless Manchester City ($1.35) proved too strong for Stoke in the penultimate leg and the incredible multi was completed when Southampton ($1.63) recorded a 4-2 victory over a typically hopeless Aston Villa.
He may have gotten lucky at times, but we have nothing but respect for this punter and he now has a cool $44,225.42 for his troubles!
