London Bookmaker Pays Out 90,000 Pounds On Harry Potter Bets
William Hill Plc, a London-based bookmaker, will pay out on a number of bets on the fate of Harry Potter because of an ``ambiguous ending'' to the seventh and final novel about the boy wizard.
The bookmaker repaid 50,000 pounds ($101,060) in wagers and a further 40,000 pounds to fans who either bet that he died, killed himself or was killed by his nemesis Lord Voldemort.
