From a purely value point of view I'd say no he'd be leaving money on the table but from a common sense point of view I'd be hitting the cash out button like my life depended on it!

Take the money. If that 275k was already banked I doubt he'd be handing over the keys to a house to get on it. Gameshow/acca mentality, unless you can smell the money it doesn't exist and people do daft things. If he took it he could still have 50k on it, so maybe a partial cashout ?

It all depends on how wealthy he is. If he placed a £5 bet and went down to the food bank for his next meal, as people probably do, it makes sense to cash out. If he's got a million in the bank and thinks the offers poor value compared to his accumulator, let it run.

I don't think he got that bottle of Bollie from the food bank, so we definately know he had at least another 35 quid. :)
Matching splashback and worktop, gloss cupboard fronts, aaaand brushed aluminium switchplate.....yeah he's doing ok

why do a huge accumulator if you intend to cash out.
If he was smart hed lay the last horse on betfair to get 50-60k more payout, but then likely hes just extremely lucky

Two good days ahead by my reckoning. This looked the hardest day.

Wouldn't a lay on the last selection effectively hedge whatever the result?

I'm looking at possible trading time, volatility, fill rate etc. First and second day couldn't have been more different.

Day 2 was much harder for my automation style. Day 1 was much better. Hoping for a good day 3 and 4.
