On St. Stephen's Day evening, one football gambler had a decision to make - it turned out to be a magnificent one.
A £1, 21-team accumulator had been placed ahead of the day's fixtures. 19 of those games were 3pm kick-offs. As the games ticked towards full time, all of the 3pm selections were in winning positions.
However, Plymouth - League Two leaders going into yesterday's games - surrendered a 3-1 lead to Wycombe. The equaliser came in the 90th minute from Myles Weston.
Just four minutes before that equaliser arrived, the Betfair customer decided to cash out. There had already been several late goals which put the bettor into a winning position. They could easily have thought luck to be on their side.
However, they instead decided to take the guaranteed payout of £223,000 rather than wait for the final whistle.
These were the winning legs of the accumulator.
Arsenal, Manchester United, Burnley, West Ham, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Reading, Millwall, Rochdale, Everton, Sheffield United, Bolton, Rotherham, Blackpool, Portsmouth, Grimsby, Wolves, Bristol Rovers.
Newcastle, who lost 1-0 to Sheffield Wednesday in the 7:45pm kick-off and Man City, who beat Hull 3-0 in the 5:30pm kick-off, along with Plymouth, were the other selections.
