The 2023/2024 English Premier League season will forever be memorable for one fortunate ForteBet punter who turned a modest UGX 20,000 bet into an astounding 271 million UGX. This remarkable achievement has set a new standard in the world of sports betting.

The winning ticket, numbered 3413353821089999, featured a masterful selection of 15 matches: 10 full-time away wins, 3 full-time home wins, and 2 double chance bets (1X and X2). The strategic picks included 5 matches with odds over 2.00 and 6 matches with odds above 1.50, creating the perfect storm for a massive payout.

The winnings were awarded at ForteBet’s Kololo head office, with brand ambassador Alex Muhangi presenting the prize to the lucky winner.

The winner, who chose to remain anonymous, expressed his elation: “I have been waiting for a win like this for a long time. I am thrilled it finally happened.” He plans to use his winnings to buy land, build a home, and invest in his produce trade business.
