    Also... I'm realizing that I should really consider using this as a real life betting guide. Looking back over my record these last couple of weeks, I'm like 12/15. At almost even odds... that's way more profitable than my MMA betting record (which just went into the black after quite a while in the red). With Vaughany experiencing something similar, I'm wondering if it's happening to others as well?

    I got an email the day after I hit it I believe, possibly two. Responded to the email, another 2 days they confirmed they shipped the prize. Wife informs me its at the house.

    Can't really use this to gauge performance against actual markets though, you're getting a lot of -150 favorites (or more) at even money here.

    Yeah, the books seem to be making some adjustments to all the overs coming in. Probably going to end up with some value on the unders soon as everyone has been hammering them.

    Am I a fool for wanting to take USA +1 over Portugal? Despite winning, they looked like crap in the Ghana game and they'll be without a key forward... but that goalie is amazing and Portugal is apparently going without four key players, not to mention an injured Ronaldo. Also, though I didn't watch it, they were destroyed by Germany so they can't be playing too well either. Having said all that, I'm a typical American in that I know very little about the relative merits of World Cup soccer teams and am largely talking out of my ass here. Would anyone who isn't care to weigh in?

    About the contest, I got my email, replied, and was sent a confirmation email saying it would arrive in 5-8 days within minutes. I was sorely tempted by the $100 freeplay, but I ended up going for the Bose earbuds. I've had the same earbuds previously, but the left earbud went out a while back after I accidentally put them through the wash and I've been suffering with an inferior pair ever since. The sound quality is exceptional with these (and the various ear cover molds ensure maximum comfort) so it's been hard to go back to crap earbuds. Definitely the best prize option in my opinion. So, really, this contest couldn't have come at a better time. If anybody out there reading this isn't already on the bandwagon, you need to get on board as it's a pretty sweet deal. Also, if that involves funding a new account for the first time, be sure to use me as a referral for the bonus hookup because... why the hell not.

    Tanaka -1 here as well.

    5D picking contest odds are a mystery to me. Detroit and Scherzer -113 currently, Tanaka and NY -210. Picking contest, both teams -1. Why wouldn't you take NY?

    Well this settles it. I'm boycotting FIFA! Actually to be honest I've only watched a grand total of 7 minutes of soccer in my entire life. Great video. Here's one more nomination.

    On a non US book thats a loss I think you took + 1 ended 1-0 so you ended up with 0-0 = loss could be the same with Dimes will have to wait and see. UL with the game tonight fellas, good game. Hope yous are 'getting' why we like it so much.

    Given this is the proxy WC thread... one of my my sportsbooks is offering a promo to refund bets on Aus to win today if they score a goal but still loose. They also offer a line on Aus not to score a goal. I'm freerollng to the tune of $600. Shows how much respect they have for the average Aussie punter.

    BJ was at +250 yesterday and +265 today.
    Sac hit the +250 and the book moved the line accordingly.

    I busted at 7 on dimes over weekend.. At 1 now, going Mariners tonight. Not expecting a lot of innings from Ramirez, but he's been solid short term lately. And fading Peavy again :P

    No goddamn all-ins Sider!

    damn, i was at 8 and took Ivory Coast...

    DID however play Greece +305 so that helps. Probably would have rather get the streak to 9 though

    I played Doyers too in "real life".

    Those were the two I like today. Certain things I like in the mariner game more... Ramirez will probably get lit up now...

    So what's the forum record? Lick/Vaughany's 8? I took a couple days off so I'm still at 5. Took the Brewers/Nationals < 8 today though, so we'll see how it goes.

    Hah, found you both on the ranking page. You clock in at numbers 45/48 respectively. Not too shabby.
