Faye, of Liverpool, posted her winnings online while other punters were in awe of the bet and began to ask questions.
This led Faye to reveal that she had no idea what they meant when she was asked what the stake was, replying, ‘What’s that?’.
Faye said: “Why’s everyone crying because I won money but didn’t know what a stake was.

“Sorry to all your betters.
“Can’t believe I’ve just won three grand.”
The Everton supporter is a big fan of striker, Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
She joked: “Anyone know how much a meet and greet is with Calvert-Lewin?”
Punters gave their two pence on the matter, with one stating: “Don’t even know what the word stake meant and still won £3,000.
“I’m hating, I can’t lie.”
Another said: “Wins three grand without knowing what a stake is.
“I have lost that amount and then some in the past month, what the f*ck man.”
Another stated: “Wins three grand on the horses.
“Doesn’t know what a stake is.
“When can I win a f*cking bet.”
One more said: “She won £3,000 and doesn’t know what a stake is.”
