Sportsbet Australia Punter Out Of Pocket $110,000 Thanks To Dismal Carlton Loss To St Kilda
One Sportsbet Australia punter woke up on the r=wrong side of the ledger Tuesday morning after an abysmal performance from Carlton Blues saw them lose to St Kilda Saints 19.8 (122) to 14.14 (98).
The punter in question was so confident of a Blues result he wagered $110,000 on Carlton at $1.24 with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
That hard earned is now dust after Carlton battled to contain The Saints’ small forwards with veteran sharp-shooter Stephen Milne booting four goals, while first-year dynamos Terry Milera and Amed Saad chipped in with another five between them.
The sorry punter can lament the fact that he was one of many that got the game result wrong with Sportsbet reporting that for every dollar invested on a Saints victory, $8 was being invested on Carlton.
