Manchester United Fan Bets Inheritance on Liverpool's Premier League Win


In a bold move, a Manchester United fan named Tony Ward, 55, bet his entire inheritance of $55,000 on Liverpool winning the Premier League. Tony Ward placed the bet back in October. After his mother died in 2017, he sat on the £55,000 for two years until deciding that Liverpool were almost certain to be this season’s champions. “Liverpool were always looking like they could win the title. I picked them after a long, long debate.”

Tony Ward pocketed £91,000 including his stake back. Liverpool victory comes after a 30 year wait.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
