Adonis bet is a body blow for bookies

ADONIS BET IS BODY BLOW FOR BOOKIES.........A William Hill customer who staked just £4 on predicting the outcome of two big football matches, has beaten odds of over 5000/1 to score winnings of £21,708.

45 year old father of three, Adonis Kalmakamis, from Ealing, West London, picked Brazil to beat Argentina 4-1 in Wednesday night's Confederation Cup Final and Germany to draw 3-3 with Mexico in a game in the same competition and saw those two results come off at individual odds of 66/1 and 80/1, making accumulative odds of over 5400/1.

'Mr Kalmakamis only ever bets on football and tells us that he will be celebrating his biggest ever win with a holiday in his native Greece' said Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.
