A Nigerian man was left devastated and heartbroken as his bet worth N1.5 million was cut by Manchester City. The incident took place at a betting centre, where the man was seen rolling on the ground in pain and regret after losing the bet.
According to the man, he had carefully selected a number of football matches for his ticket, most of which turned out successful. However, Manchester City was the only club that failed him, leading to the complete loss of his stake.
The man recounted how he was earlier presented with an opportunity to cash out a sum of N700K, but he turned it down in hopes of claiming the full N1.5 million. Unfortunately, his gamble backfired, leaving him with nothing.
His emotional reaction drew the attention of onlookers, some of whom offered words of sympathy, while others made humorous remarks about the situation.
This incident has sparked conversations online, with many advising bettors to always take cash-out offers when substantial amounts are on the table.
