    Okay - I'm confused
    I parlayed Spain and Brazil 1st Halves.

    Spain's was 0-0 and my book already wiped away the bet! Is that how it works? Are they supposed to WIN the first half? I thought a tie game would be a push? And if Brazil won theirs - then it would turn into a straight wager.

    I've never really bet on Soccer too much in the past so I'm not familiar with the rules.

    Did I get screwed or is that how it works?

    Someone please answer.

        Gambling is not your forte. Does your book wipe out NBA games when you pick a team 1H and they lose?

          Alright, Thanks. That's the last time I bet this half shit! I usually don't care too much for Soccer to bet on it but I've been on a role lately so I'm just throwing my money away on stupid shit! I have a tendency of doing that...

              Betting anything in soccer that involves the draw, be it FT or HT, is the best way to make money on it since its always undervalued in the odds, joe public loves placing money on his favourite teams to win.

              Its just a case of finding the angle to hit those draws and being prepared to take on a couple of losers in the grand scheme of things.

                Interesting... I've never checked out Soccer odds before... Can you bet the Draw? And if so, what kind of odds does one get?

                  Yes, you're right.

                  Lesson learned.

                    It absolutely varies between the teams involved obviously, but even with two very close teams and very good defences vs crap attack teams you can normally get around +300 (ish)
