Steve Richards, a roofer from Tonyrefail, near Pontypridd, has won an incredible £38,000 on a football accumulator bet at Ladbrokes - by successfully predicting the results of 12 matches. Now he has staked £30,000 of his winnings on this weekend's rugby match which sees Wales take on Australia. If he wins, his £10 will have turned into £68,000.

So how does this stack up in the crazy world of accumulator bets?
