I don't understand American odds -130 +220 etc so I will do it with a bankroll of $1000 and in the decimal system.

First bet is on a vastly superior Russian side to take out the Czechs at the nice odds of 2.52 with Betfair. $40 on it.

I always used decimal odds till I joined this site, they converted me lol..
I have Russia on this too. goodluck

Nice win there for the Russians. Record now 1-0 and the balance $1060.80.

For todays matches I am going to go for a small parlay and Netherlands -1 as I believe they will come out and attack Denmark and control most of the game. I also think Germany Portugal will be an attacking affair with plenty of goals in this one. Therefore:

Netherlands -1 @ 2.65 x $40
Netherlands -1 / Germany v Portugal over 2.5 goals @ 5.14 x $ 10.80
Both games over 3.5 goals @ 11.78 x 5

Good luck.

All losers yesterday. With Netherlands having 28 shots to Denmark's 8 and Portugal hitting the bar twice they were not bad plays but that's football. Balance now $1005.

Prefer to watch Spain and Italy fight it out. Going to put a small wager on Ireland to cause an upset. McGeady and Keane to have blinders and hopefully Modric has a quiet one. $10 on Ireland @ 4.10 and $5 on Modric first goal scorer @ 13.

With a balance of $990 I am going to outlay $90 on Portugal to beat Denmark. This is the sort of game Portugal usually wins, and the odds of 1.90 is pretty good.

Força Portugal!!!!!!

Portugal $90 @ 1.90.

Nice win by Portugal and the late goal makes it all the more sweet. The game vs Holland is going to be awesome.

Balance now sits at $1071.

Tonight Italy to beat Croatia are great value at 2.25. I expect Di Natale to start and grab a goal. While there is not much value on Spain ML the halftime/fulltime double looks appealing at 1.83. Over 2.5 goals at 1.80 is also good value.

So the bets tonight are:

Di Natale first goal scorer $11 @ 7.50
Italy ML $40 @ 2.25
Italy ML & Spain HT/FT double $10 @ 4.12
Italy ML & Spain Ireland over 2.5 goals $10 @ 4.05

Outlay $70 - Balance $1000.

Di Natale doesn't start so we will go with Balotelli in his place @ 7.50.

Struggling to get online lately. Have not bet apart from $50 on France to top their group @ 2.70 before the Ukraine game. Let down by Italy against Croatia last bets and should have just pounded Spain HT/FT or overs so let's make up for it against Ireland tonight.



Italy ML $350 @ 1.40 to beat Ireland.



Balance now $600.

Comfortable win there, balance now $1090 with the France bet pending.

Looking forward to the England Ukraine game. Strange betting projection because England only need a draw to qualify.

However, with Ukraine having to win the game they will have to come out just like Holland did against Portugal and we saw how that turned out.

Hodgson will have a much better idea about his team now and I expect Walcott and Young to be out wide with Carroll and Rooney up front. They should have too much for Ukraine on the break and win this game.

$60 on England to win @ 2.00

[in:extremis]

England played pretty shite but a win is a win. France let down the 2.70 bet but balance now sits at $1150 with the crunch matches coming.

[in:extremis]

Germany are winning this game. $450 @ 1.33.

Too easy there. Balance for rounding up sake is $1300. Sitting out Spain v France.
