Football and betting has come to stay. But one of the most important rules of football betting is, NEVER BET WITH MONEY YOU'RE are not comfortable to lose.
No matter how you want to take this, 10 000 Ghana cedis in the current economic situation is not a comfortable amount to lose in Ghana. Not to talk about the 90 plus three minutes and a few seconds it took to lose it.
A Real Madrid fan who goes by the name Patricia Nyarko [according to her betting slip from Supabets] staked GHS10 000 for the 2016 UEFA Champions League final game against Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid set in Milan.
With the odds for the bet set at 2.48, Nyarko had the chance of winning a whooping GHS24,800 making GHS14,800 profit out of the final.
But things did not go as planned as an equalizer from Ferreira-Carrasco for Atletico Madrid cancelled Real Madrid's first half lead from Sergio Ramos.
Football betting is for the duration of regular time without extra time meaning Patricia Nyarko just lost GHS10,000 after going for a Real Madrid win. Technically in betting, the game ended in a 1-1 draw. Other things Patricia Nyarko could have done with GHS10,000 Watch the 2016 UEFA Champions League final in Milan, Italy.
With the economy price for a one way flight from Accra to Milan going for as low as $550 [GHS2,120] according to pricing by British Airways, Nyarko could have booked a return trip [GHS4,240 total] for the final game in Milan and still have GHS5,760 for ticket, hotel and food.
