    Croatia to win the world cup +1200

    I think it is worth a shot. +1200. They have the easy side of the bracket with only Spain posing a threat. One unit. Hedge out in the final.

    Agree with you

    but disagree with your attention seeking tactics. You just posted Denmark ML on other thread, now taking Croatia to win it all. You’ll be ‘reading the WC well’ either way after this game.

    Denmark is a long shot. Just an opinion I had but not a bet I will make.

    Croatia is my play to clarify.

    I root for them mostly because of the style of soccer they play. They got a shot.

    I have futures on Brazil and Belgium from pre tournament .
    Don't like Brazil honestly to win it anymore... Even though I'm rooting for them because I love their free flow style of play.
    At this point in the tournament I think Belgium has been the strongest.

    I love Uruguays defense so I added a future on them at +2000. Tough draw from that side but they are Rock solid in back and half two superstar strikers.

    I may add Croatia as well but I haven't decided. England may be worth a shot too from that side of the bracket.

    I truly think Spain will be fine. I'd be surprised if Spain doesn't make the final. I may add a couple matchup futures with Spain because I think they're even money to at least make it there.

    Spain may seriously want to consider benching De Gea... He's been a space cadet out there.

    I'm so weary of France because if they play a match to their full capability, few teams could beat them...but that's a big IF at this point

    If you play everyone, you're sure to win.

    Covered this with the Danes. Now it's still alive and Croatia will beat Russia and be in the semis.

    Russia is big money for World Cup. A lot of ratings to keep helping them win. I think Croatia is done

    Don't jinx me laker biggest risk on Croats at +3700 for me.

    Spread out 20 units before WC start.

    6u Croatia +3700
    5u Belgium +1100
    4u Switzerland +14990
    2u Uruguay +3000
    1u Argentina +1000 (dead)
    1u England +1700
    1u Serbia +15000 (dead)

    Strategy was to avoid the top favorites. Brazil and France still a threat. Germany and Spain out though.

    Feel I should have bet more on England and maybe a sprinkle on Russia. Thought the latter about Senegal too but they out...so.
