VERY few will ever have cheered a goalless draw more than this genius punter, who nailed a once-in-a-lifetime acca win over the weekend.<\/p>\n
This Betfair customer took home an earth-shattering \u00a3264,712 after correctly predicting the results of 13 Premier League and Championship matches on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The bettor placed \u00a350 on the 13-fold at astronomical odds of 5,273\/1 including three away wins and FOUR draws.<\/p>\n
Things could scarcely have started better with Tottenham and Middlesbrough both securing victories in the early kick-offs.<\/p>\n
Everton, Chelsea, Fulham, Blackburn, Leicester, Ipswich and Leeds then all secured fairly comfortable wins at 3pm.<\/p>\n
The Cardiff vs Watford and Millwall vs Hull matches were all-level heading into the final 30 minutes, and this punter will have been jumping for joy when Coventry equalised in the 88th-minute against Norwich.<\/p>\n
12 down, one to go\u2026<\/p>\n
With just one draw separating this bettor from a quarter of a million – the impulse to cash out for an enormous amount would have been seriously tempting.<\/p>\n
