Take the money. Liverpool are very unlikely to win the league. Even if they do, they then have the small matter of overcoming Real Madrid in the so-called Champions' League final.
//Put it another way: if today you were offered odds of 17-1 on Liverpool winning the quadruple, would you bet £22K on it?//
No. They must win the Real match and at least one of the remaining two league matches and will succeed only then if City slip up against Villa. Seventeen to one for that lot is not good value.
£22k sounds a very attractive offer. 220-1 for winning the two domestic cup competitions (roughly 14-1 for each) is quite good value - especially when the bet has already been won.

If you read the link through you will see this punter has already spurned a cash-out offer of £32K. Then when Liverpool could only draw with Spurs, that offer was reduced to just over £10K, then City thrashed Wolves and it was reduced even further to £5.4K. It was raised to £9.2K before Liverpool won the FA Cup, then to it's present level after the latest round of results.
TTT said that if the £22K would change the guy's life, take the money. Obviously it wouldn't or he would have most likely taken the larger £32K. The thing to keep in mind is that if his bet goes thrupennies up, he has only lost £100.

I don't see it like that at all! As I see it, he is currently sitting there with £22K, and he has chosen to go "all in" with it on an offer of 17/1.
If you were given £22K and that offer of 17/1, would you choose that offer or do you think you could find a better use for the £22K - like Togo's example if you want to keep it as a gamble, or a very nice holiday or decent second hand car.

> Ellipsis, so to your way of thinking, if he did accept the £22K and Liverpool did go on to win all 4 trophies, this guy would have lost £345K?
No, because he never had it. Right now he has the £22K if he wants it.
It will be interesting to see what the offer increases to but I wouldn't expect it to be much. If Liverpool had won 7-0 that would be a different matter ...

Here is a bit of an update Ken. "She" is adamant that she will not cash out and has been speaking with Betfair.
