Un p'tit coup de main

Une fois n'est pas coutume, je profite de ce blog pour aider un joueur sympathique qui a gagné un package à 950€ sur Ladbrokes pour un tournoi en Irlande début Octobre et qui ne peut pas s'y rendre. Il le cède à 750€, donc si quelqu'un est intéressé, qu'il me contacte rapidement car la transaction doit etre faite avant samedi (je transmettrai les coordonnées).
Donc comme d'habitude sur ce blog, c'est un bon plan avec une bonne value !
La personne intéressée doit être enregistrée chez Ladbokes pour bénéficier de ce package.

Voici les détails:
