About this product

Product Information

This is the sensational inside story on how professional punter Patrick Veitch overcame adversity to take the bookmakers for over GBP 10 million in an eight year period. Veitch studied maths at Cambridge alongside becoming a major league punter. A comfortable life as a professional punter looked assured until his world was torn apart. He was the victim of an extortion attempt by a dangerous criminal who would subsequently be tried twice for murder and later convicted of attempted murder. Veitch was forced to flee and go into hiding, returning to Cambridge to testify in a bulletproof jacket with police protection. With his tormentor behind bars, Veitch took on the bookmakers on a greater scale than ever before. Over the following eight years, he would come to be known as the bookmakers' public enemy number one as he and his followers relieved the bookmakers of colossal sums.

  • You Won't Want To Put This Down

    Wow, what can I say. This is a the powerful true story of professional gambler Patrick Veitch and his multi million pound raid on the Bookies coffers over the years. It starts like something out of an Agatha Christie novel with an unwelcome approach from a local gangster, and ends with Patrick fleecing the Bookies for millions... This is "Thrilling" can't put it down stuff..
