All this is promotional, 1960bet that hardly pay winnings and their agent always asking for percentage cut before they payout. Their betshops is technically dead in ikorodu and environs.

Story..... People stop playing bets! The world is fast evolving. Go and check those that were playing pool in their back then in the 70s, 80s nd 90s! They are wearing eyeglasses going around in the village doing nothing. While their mates who never believed in quick money were busy hustling. It is this same pool that they now mordenised and took it online!

Punters and Bookies are aware that it takes only one game to spoil your ticket. Not to talk of the very fact that these bookies fix big matches which they know that people will rush to play! The chances of that man winning that ticket is that he raised an odd above 73,000.... Wow... See lies. If you know how odd 2 casts on tickets sef... Not to talk of odd 73,000! Lies from hell. This is just Cheap publicity stunt.

What this Niggas do is that once they notice that people are loosing interest in betting due to too much loss, they quickly rush to pay one mechanic to pretend that he won something like 6,000, 000! They will now pay the mechanic something like 300,000 and warn him to be forever silent. Magas and Mugus in Nigeria will now quickly rush to continue betting!

If you think am lying, why is it that in every betting centre, you only hear about a mega win once in a while? What happened to the other money people lost?

I was in a betting centre in PHC one day and the man sold tickets worth more than one million in a day! The man is my friend... One week later, I went back and he told me that only one person won 18,000 naira! My question ia now; WHAT HAPPENED TO OVER 978,000 naira? In one person's pocket right?

STOP SEEKING QUICK MONEY... WORK HARD AND BALL! BETTING DEPLETED YOUR SOURCE OF INCOME AND MAY SEND YOU PACKING TO THE VILLAGE... I KNOW PEOPLE WHO LOST MILLIONS IN BETTING. YOU MAY THINK THAT YOU ARE BETTING WITH ONLY 200 naira but if you calculate the 200 naira you lost in a year, it will be more than 100,000! Couldnt you have invested it in something worthwhile?

AGAIN, ASK YOURSELF WHY THE OWNER OF NAIRALAND DOESNT ACCEPT ADVERTS FROM BOOKIES! BECAUSE SEUN IS AWARE THAT IT IS VERY RISKY AND CAN KILL!

Thanks man. Hearing of such amount of money I was just thinking of going into betting. But your post brought me back to my senses.

A Professor of Computer Engineering at the Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, Edo State, Godwin Ighalo, has won the sum of N58,945,553, after placing bets with N800 in 1960Bet.

It is the biggest sum ever won in the history of sports betting in Nigeria. The sexagenarian accomplished the feat after placing bets on two different bet slips of N500 and N300.

On the N500 ticket, Prof Ighalo won N36,840,971.25 while the N300 slip won him N22,104,582.75. Ighalo, who was accompanied by two of his relatives, on Wednesday, received his cheque at the head office of the country’s top sports betting company in Lagos.

On how he was able to achieve the feat, Ighalo said,
“Since my childhood days, I used to have strong
interests in probability, relationships and special
intelligence. All these with adequate sports betting research I conducted over the years, helped in making it possible.”

He hailed 1960BET for their honesty and commitment to their customers, adding he was sure he would be paid his money in full by the sports betting company, despite doubts in some quarters that they won’t be able to pay.

He said, “I was sure the company would pay if I win. I have tried in the past without winning and always believe that one day luck will shine on me.
“There were a lot of people out there who expressed doubts on whether they will be able to pay the money, but 1960Bet has demonstrated that they are a reliable sports betting company with this prompt payment. Immediately I arrived at their office, they called me in and the money was paid into my account.”

The Managing Director of 1960BET, Mr Dotun
Ajegbile, said the company, with the prompt payment of the money, has enhanced its position as the most consistent sports betting firm in Nigeria.

“Now it is clear that 1960BET is the most consistent, having paid more winnings in the history of sports betting in Nigeria; we have been paying since 2010.
We have made it top priority in the new season to honour all transactions online and retail while
guaranteeing the best odds at all times and undiluted gaming excitement in all our shops.”

Guys this is what you need to confirm that this is just a promotional stunt to gain public confidence.

I have strong doubts that someone would win such a huge amounts in betting and decide to go public in a place like Nigeria where kidnapping is rampant. If truly he won such an amount he would have opted for privacy and not this stunt.

Based on his winning slips posted here, he played just 9 games accumulator to win 33million. That's a red flag to me. It's near impossible for a 9 leg game to accumulate such amount. Something doesn't add up.
Re: Professor Ighalo Wins N58Million In Sports Bet by anangboy(m): 10:04am On Aug 30, 2015
For a Professor of Computer Engineering, he is definitely an expert on Probability theory and Intertemporal Choice but then again, in probability there is no certainty, that is why there is always that unknown and
unpredictable element in happenings that seems to have no assignable cause. Throw a coin 10 times, even if you get a "head" all times, the probability of having a tail at the 11th throw is still 0.5.

This is interesting. Can anybody lock down this man's identity? Does he exist?

It's not only fallacious in nature but also a way of misleading innocent Nigerians! However, a friend won 1,785,566 with just 100 playing 14 games. Now, since your Mathematics is good, if this guy had put 500 and had added just a game of odd 10,like westham beating Liverpool yesterday, then the winnings shall be....89,278,300! So,please come to Sabo, Boyei plaza , kaduna and ask for Monaco, the guy will be shown to you.
