Came across this article in a Dutch newspaper yesterday so it is in Dutch. 
Basicly William Hill offered a punter £3200 and buy off his bet he has on Leicester City to win the Premier League.
He put only £5.00 on the bet.
The guy declined the offer and if Leicester City indeed wins the PL he will scoop a nice £25.000.
According to Rupert Adams,a WH spokes person they have to pay just over £2.000.000 to punters if they win the PL.

I wonder if this is ethically something a casino can or should do?
Trying to buy off bets?
Is this a common thing and is it actually legal?
