The lucky betting slip
A local gambler has beaten odds of 33,000/1 to pocket €34,502.
The punter, who is from Co Louth but who has asked to remain anonymous, put a €6 bet on Tuesday night’s EuroMillions draw.
His huge takings came in when two sets of numbers clicked.
First he placed €1 on the numbers 8-12-49, which were drawn in the EuroMillions Plus draw and defied odds of 1500/1 to win €1,501.
His luck continued when a €1 stake on the numbers 8-12-41-49 came out in the draw to defy huge odds of 33,000/1 and net the punter €33,001.
As a result, the punter who invested €6 in total netted a whopping €34,502 from their winning two lines.
Liam Glynn from BoyleSports said: “May has started with punters taking a belt to BoyleSports in what has been the worst month of the year so far but it’s certainly true to say that small stakes can return big dividends.”
