LISTEN BACK: Eamon speaks to former postmaster Tony O'Reilly on how he stole over €1.7m  from his branch in Gorey to feed his addiction

Tony O'Reilly or 'Tony 10' as he was known online, was a gambler who lost his job, family, home and ended up in prison because of his addiction.

What began as a bet of €1 for the former Wexford postmaster, quickly turned to €10million and eventually his downfall leading to a prison sentence.

Tony speaks to Eamon about the heart-stopping moments in a Cyprus hotel room as his Wedding Ring was riding on an Epsom Derby win and the elation of winning over half a million in a weekend.

You can pick up Tony 10 in all major bookstores.
