Briton won £ 10,000 on his wedding day. He made a sports bet and forgot to check the result.

57-year-old Richard Purcell from Liverpool on December 20, right during his wedding, became richer by 10 thousand pounds.

The sudden wealth to the man was brought by a football bet, which he made a week earlier.

Purcell noted that he often makes small bets on football matches, but has never won any significant amount.

This time all his thoughts were occupied with preparing for the wedding, and therefore he forgot to check the results. But right during the celebration, a notification came to his phone about the money received in his bank account. Moreover, the amount was so large that Richard could not believe what was happening for a long time.

As noted by the Briton, this money just came in handy – now he will be able to cover some of the costs of the wedding and arrange a chic honeymoon, writes Liverpool Echo. Ekaterina Gura, Source 1, Source 2
