Winning £64,000 at 16 - The Dark Side to Betting: Lewis Bigmore

What's Da Craic? With Janet Devlin

*TW* discussions on gambling addiction. Listener discretion is advised.
What would you do if you won £64,000? Well with Lewis, that’s not just a fantasy question - it was his reality. At the shy age of 16, he placed his first bet on a football game and turned a few quid into a small fortune. It’s not all happily ever afters though, as simple luck quickly became an insidious obsession. We discuss the heavily taboo topic of gambling addiction and how it’s become a pandemic amongst young men.
