One lucky Irish punter is on seventh heaven this week after scooping more than £100,000 for a £2 bet on Sunday. An Athenry man played a straight line Tote Super7 bet in Ladbrokes store in Ireland, where all Tote bets are available, and was there in the store to watch the last race when he realized he had scooped such an enormous win. The winner, who is described as a very astute punter, is said to be over the moon with his win.

Better lucky than good & more power to him!

The fact that he was the only winner is an indication of how few people play it & that the pro pool players see no value in it, a terrible bet that is probably not long for this world.

I know him too and would say he's quite shrewd. A decent punter in a town full of idiots

Correct, Athenry is full to the gills with mug punters.
