Turning a 50p ($.63) bet into £1 Million



Among the most fascinating wagers at any point made of history is of a man who figured out how to change over a 50p bet into an incredible £1million. Apparently, the Yorkshire man named Fred Craggs put down a bet on the joined joker gaming result of eight horse races. He had this propensity for regularly putting down little wagers, much to his dismay that it would be his day of reckoning.

The chances of winning were really 2,800,000-1! Talk about an act of pure trust.

Incidentally, the name of the primary race's triumphant pony was 'Isn't That Lucky', and that of the pony that dominated the eighth race was 'A Dream Come True'. Incident? As though a touch of destiny, the triumphant matched with his 60th birthday celebration in 2008. Envision awakening to such a birthday present.

Yet, supposedly, Craggs would have effortlessly been cheated off his cash by the bookmaker who had a standard that would have covered his rewards to a simple £100,000. They, notwithstanding, understood that it would have thought about seriously the organization and gave him his £1 million rewards (identical $1.3 million). Curiously, the prize was as yet covered as the first rewards added up to £1.4 million.
