A U*BET player bagged €360,000 with a €1 bet last Sunday after what must have been a roller-coaster ride as four of his correct score predictions all came true in the very final stages of each match, Maltco said.
The player predicted the correct score for five games and combined them in bets of four matches each, giving him five bets of one euro each. His predictions were:

One of the resulting combination of four correct score predictions came through with the combined odds working out at 1 : 20 x 30 x 60 x 10 giving the player a payout of €360,000 for his €1 bet!
“It is simply fantastic,” said Mario Cassar, General Director at Maltco Lotteries. “Not only did the player guess four correct scores, but they all matched the predicted result in the last few minutes of each game, providing nail-biting excitement to the last minute. It must have been incredible when Gonzales scored for Liege in the 92nd minute, giving this player a massive win of €360,000 for his €1 bet!”
There were other previous big wins with U*BET, notably among them when a player predicted the outcome of 15 matches and winning over €33,000. “Maltese players are very knowledgeable and skilled not only at soccer but also with other sports including horse racing where, for example, we’ve had quite a few players predicting the winner in each of the seven races making up the V75 from Sweden”.
