Some unfortunate punter on Betfair layed 0 corners for £14 at 1000/1. I think he/she ought to be on suicide watch over the coming hours..

Imagine explaining that one to the other half

[little dave hedgehog]

what, the 14 pound?

[Gerrard]

what, the 14 pound?

no, the 14 grand he now owes Betfair

[Dave Benson Phillips]

why does he owe them money?

[little dave hedgehog]

why does he owe them money?

yeah.

[EwarWoo]

why does he owe them money?

You're betting on a score. For everything over you owe them, for everything under they owe you.

Admittedly not a punter but that seems an extremely strange bet to make. Idiot not checking for typos?

[CJ]

wouldnt he have to have the money in his account to lay that bet?

[MrsB]

wouldnt he have to have the money in his account to lay that bet?

I would think so, yes.

[Norbs]

wouldnt he have to have the money in his account to lay that bet?

Yep.
