A Punter With Huge (Crystal) Balls!

There is not much upside to laying a bet that cops… but there is one; it allows the layer the right to have a moan up about how unlucky they were. How boring would betting banter be without hard luck stories?!

Here’s ours.

Would you believe me if I told you, that this season the same punter has bought Barcelona supremacy when they beat Real Madrid 5-0, when they travelled to Almeria and walloped them 8-0, but sold when they were 2.8 goal favourites at home to Hercules and lost 3-0? He also sold Chelsea when they lost 3-0 at home to Sunderland and 2-0 at Anfield, and opposed Arsenal when they were 2-0 up versus Spurs?

When I mention that this guy is also our biggest staking client, you have to wonder how we are still in business, yet he has never been refused a bet or even had his stake restricted. Unheard of in this age of lily livered bookmakers…

I guess that means Star Spreads have balls too, they’re just not made of crystal.

Here is how I imagine a game of Black Jack between this utter shrewdie and ourselves would pan out.
