    4 Horses, 4 winners, £6500, thank you Bet365! :o

    I honestly can't believe it! I'm lost for words! It's only the 5th time I've ever bet on the horses..

    Seriously didn't expect to have won anything due to the stupid odds, so didn't even check yesterday, woke up this morning, checked my emails, had an email from Bet365 to say that all 4 of my horses had won, and I'm a few quid short of 6 and a half grand!

    Harbinger 11/2, Overrun 11/2, Meringo 18/1 and Dick Turpin 8/1, stupid odds, but omg, I feel like the luckiest man alive!

    And the best thing is, it only cost me £7.50 due to it being a "4 in 1" thing.

    You must be joking

    Congrats !!!!

    Is it a kind of accumulator, i.e., you only win if the 4 horses win????? Never bet, but used to do matched betting, but haven't done it for a while....

    Yeah, it's exactly that.. Which is the reason why I didn't even check my emails cos I seriously didn't expect to have won.

    Awesome, massive congratulations!!

    Just don't get lightheaded and waste it- I'd say this puts you in a strong position to get well out of your situation as previously posted about. Good luck.

    £6000 into my savings account, £468 into my pocket to spend on something for myself .

    Maybe a new lens for my camera or something. I dunno.. But I'll spend it wisely

    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
