I’m over the moon and so glad to be picking up such an amazing amount of money, especially when it only took a tenner. I own a pub called Glen Bar in Kilmeedy and we will be celebrating this win and I might even buy a few greyhound pups!”

Leon Blanche, Head of Communications for BoyleSports said, “We have to hand it to Paul for turning his stake into such an eye-catching sum. It’s nice to see one of our regular customers rewarded so handsomely and we wish him the very best of luck with his total winnings of €330,000 from a total stake of €10.”
