The Irish rugby team beat New Zealand yesterday… well, as far as one bookmaker is concerned anyway.BragBet, the new Irish team betting company, have taken pity on disheartened Irish rugby punters today by paying out on the Boys in Green at 10/1 as if the Irish team had actually won the match.
“Irish rugby fans up and down the country were robbed by that injury time try and while a few quid won’t make up for the once in a lifetime chance that went begging, at least by paying out at 10/1 it will sweeten the medicine a little,” said CEO Phil Riordan.
BragBet is a team betting website that allows groups of friends to form a team and bet against the bookie as a syndicate.
BragBet already offered money back on all bets on Ireland if New Zealand won, to tens of thousands of O2 customers and to all BragBet followers on Facebook and Twitter.
“Most of us are rugby fans in the office and the majority of the lads are walking round in a daze, shaking their heads today, so we thought we would lighten the mood, pay out the punters and show our solidarity with the Irish team after such a fantastic display,” Riordan continued.
BragBet are the Official Betting Partner of the FAI, the Ultimate Rugby app and Connacht Rugby.
