$500,000 Bet ... ?
Wonder what happened to the punter who had the $500,000 large on us to win the Flag ..? Thinking a draw would be his only chance of losing if he hedged his bets .. ![Question :?:](./images/smilies/icon_question.gif)

He is alive , and so I am (I bet a $500 at 5.5 to one the week before we played Geelong in the home and away). I rang betezy this morning and they say bets taken during the home and away season will be carried on to next weeks game. (Interesting in that they also said that if you bet head to head yesterday , they would pay half the odds for both teams..........
Go saints . I'm even more confident in the rematch result.....

I really hope he didn't have $500k on Collingwood in the H/H market as a saver as he would have done $150k.Middo wrote:Wonder what happened to the punter who had the $500,000 large on us to win the Flag ..? Thinking a draw would be his only chance of losing if he hedged his bets ..

Yep, the bet is still live, as reported in today's H-S.
All bets for a win taken during the game were honoured at 50% of odds, all margin bets were lost. All bets for the flag will be paid out on next week's result.
