Watching the game in his local pub, The Black Diamond, Steve saw his fortune dwindle away as the Aussies beat Wales at the Millennium Stadium in a 30-26 thriller.
Red-faced but loyal, he said: “It was a bit of bad luck losing the bet but I’m still almost £9,000 better off than I was when I started,” he told Media Wales.
“I don’t know how anybody could be disappointed with £9,000. I don’t regret putting the bet on because I had fun and felt relatively calm throughout the game.”
“My partner Karen wanted a pair of slippers from John Lewis but we’ll have to leave that now,” he joked.
