London, August 14th 2014 – COLOSSUS BETS, home of the £10,000,000 Colossus and the world’s biggest football and sports jackpots, today announced that it has launched a £1,000,000 HDA15 Football Jackpot aimed at dominating and consolidating the HDA (or 1X2) pools and traditional accumulator markets.
Bernard Marantelli, founder and CEO of Colossus Bets said, “Several operators currently run small 1X2 Pools, and whilst they may reach £1,000,000 once a year, when won they revert to £100,000 or less and take months to grow again. We will put them to the sword and consolidate all players into a weekly pool with a minimum £1,000,000 prize, with the capacity to reach £10,000,000 via our expanding stable of B2B partners, including Betdaq, Betfair and Boylesports. Our HDA15 Football Jackpot will also offer players industry leading Fractional Cash-In, enabling them to bank profits from their tickets as legs progress.
Given our killer features and growing distribution, no discerning punter ever needs to take a bad value ‘acca’ or play a substandard pool again.”
The £1,000,000 HDA15 is a weekly 15 leg pool bet with a 1X2 format comprising a minimum £500,000 win fund and a minimum £500,000 bonus – both numbers net of deductions. Any winners of the win fund will have a free pick on the outcome of one further football match the following week, to try and land the £500,000 bonus.
A full unit will cost players just £2, but like all Colossus pools, the HDA15 can be played for as little as 20p (which buys a 0.1 unit and plays for a proportional £100,000).
The first £1,000,000 HDA15 is now live, kicking off with a selection of this Saturday’s Premier League fixtures and the bet is also available across all of Colossus Bets’ B2B partner sites, including BETDAQ, Betfair, Boylesports and Sportsbet.io.
The £1,000,000 HDA15 is available on www.colossusbets.com on both Desktop/Web as well as a customized smartphone and tablet experience on Mobile Web.

About Colossus Bets
Founder and CEO Bernard Marantelli is a professional gambler, who after winning significant sums from multi-leg bets around the world, decided jackpot pools were not run optimally. After failing to convince incumbent operators to improve their product offering to generate bigger pools, he set up Colossus Bets to provide lottery-sized jackpot pools on a weekly basis.
On May 31st 2014 Bernard lead one of three syndicates to share a world record £5.4m Scoop6 bonus, after sharing a £10,000,000 pool eight ways the previous week.
The world’s biggest bet, ‘The £10,000,000 Colossus’ is a seven leg correct score football game offered weekly. Colossus Bets also offers a series of other multi-million pound pools based on correct scores and a suite of correct outcome (Home/Draw/Away) games.
