Bets with odds of 263,109/1 do not usually hold much hope of winning - but one punter found out on Saturday (April 30) that sporting miracles can happen.
The Ladbrokes customer walked away with a huge cash win of £158,000 after placing a 60p accumulator - also known as an 'acca' - bet on that day's Premier League and Championship games. The reason why the odds were so stacked against them was because they had betted on all 16 matches being played in the two divisions.
However, despite the rather ambitious prediction, it was the punter who ended up with a big smile on their face and a large cheque as they all went the way they had said. But there was still room for a bit of late drama and jeopardy.
