Punter WINS £520,000 thanks to Papu Gomez's 92nd minute Sevilla goal
Not bad for a weekend’s work! One punter WINS £520,000 from four gigantic 22 and 23-fold accumulators – but he had Papu Gomez’s 92nd-minute Sevilla winner to thank for his new fortune off an original £43 stake
- One lucky punter from Galway, Republic of Ireland is now £520,632 richer
- They staked £43 across three 22-fold accumulators and one that was 23-fold
- Papu Gomez’s 92nd-minute winner for Sevilla against Alaves saw the bet win
There was a lot to play for across the European leagues at the weekend but arguably the biggest winner was one lucky punter who has changed his life forever.
A man from Galway, Republic of Ireland truly had the luck of the Irish with him as he won a whopping £520,632 from three 22-fold accumulators and one 23-fold accumulator.
The four folds – which included games from the previous week – saw £43 staked in total in a Ladbrokes shop, where the brave punter’s teams spanned across several European and South American leagues, requiring a mixture of victories, both teams scoring and under 3.5 goals in the game.

Bet 1: 22-fold – £13 stake
Bet 2: 22-fold – £13 stake
Bet 3: 22-fold – £12 stake
Bet 4: 23-fold – £5 stake – cashed in for £88k
Total Returns: £520,632
To add to the suspense, the gentleman in question was left sweating on Sunday as he needed Sevilla to beat Deportivo Alaves at home in LaLiga.
All the odds pointed towards an easy home victory with Sevilla guaranteed of a top-four finish and Alaves having just avoided relegation but it was anything but.
Papu Gomez was the toast of Sevilla, and the punter, by popping up with the winning goal in the second minute of injury time to give the hosts victory.
This bet was on all four accumulators and although he came out on top by winning £88,000 from the fourth one amazingly he could’ve won more had he he not cashed out.
If he had stuck to his guns with this fold he could’ve earned an extra £46,000.
However, there is nothing to be disappointed with his weekend’s work as Jessica O’Reilly of Ladbrokes said too: ‘Talk about luck of the Irish. Needing over 20 teams’ results to go your way is no mean feat and we can only doff our cap to our plucky punter who is over half a million quid richer thanks to a dramatic winner in the 92nd minute by Papu Gomez.’
Indeed, not a bad way to end the season at all.
His bet also included Liverpool beating Crystal Palace – which they did thanks to Sadio Mane
