CORAL'S new Outsider coupon went down a storm at the weekend with one English punter scooping £100,000 for £4 bet.
The coupon only allows you to back outsiders and gives no price for a favourite or the draw so, for example, you could have had West Brom v Chelsea.
At the weekend Coral were offering bonuses of up to 10o per cent for eightfolds and above and the Kent punter's £48,726.56p win was doubled to £97,453.12.
The sides he chose were Arsenal, Swansea, Torquay, Hearts, Bayer Leverkusen, West Ham, Lazio and Nurnberg.
In the final match Nurnberg scored an 87th-minute winner.
Coral spokesman Simon Clare said: “This is only the second week we have offered The Outsider coupon and this customer has taken us to the cleaners.
“It was designed to reward customers for going against the crowd by backing the underdogs rather than favourites and this customer has demonstrated incredible judgement to land such a massive accumulator.
“We are hoping the customer will agree to publicity as we would love to know how he managed to land such an extraordinary bet.”
hi paul i put on of these on at the weeekend an 8 fold. i had lazio,swansea,west brom,arsenal on mine but then had tranmere ,wycombe, caent remember the pther 2. there very rewarding i only put 10 pence on and would of got back 750.20 if it had won plus 100% bonus they are worth having a shot on.
George, were you able to do this online or was it only in shops. I’d been made aware of the coupon but didn’t make it to a Coral shop at the weekend as I have to go out of my way to get to one. Not everyone want to back outsiders but a bonus of up to 100 per cent is tempting. Think the bonus starts at 33 per cent.
i got it from the shops paul. its defo worth it for 10 pence a go still get a lot of money back plus 100% bonus carnt go wrong if it comes in.Yea it starts at 33%.
George, I’ll try to get a coupon on Friday although it wasn’t in yet when I visited my nearest shop last week. Let me know what you go for and I’ll post my line here if I get round to it.
yea great paul. Will do on saturday mate ill pick one up on friday night or if they got them in thursday ill post mine friday. see how many we get right.
