    adding to your position can be a great thing, but you're taking like you were forced to do so and without any hedge opportunity.

    also, 4500 @ -309 on spain not to win doesn't sound like a reasonable first position to have taken pre-tourney. am i missing something?

    Yes the spain bet wasn't good. I honestly thought italy would beat them in game 1 and they would be out after croat game and I would be all good. Well it did not work out that way but I firmly believe I am gonna get a big payday tomorrow.

    no worries, just don't understand why you didn't put more than 1x @ +1100? and of course you still could hedge off most of your exposure. regardless, rooting this in with you very hard. gl

    I like Italy for this one. Fun Fact - Last time there was a match fixing scandal with Italian soccer was when Italy held the World cup trophy. Seems like something about these controversies makes the Italians play better, or they just solve their match fixing problems with more match fixing.

    Eitherway without Lionel Messi at the front, this Spain team has really been playing below expectations. I'd hate to see this one go to Penalties just because Penalties are based on luck but these teams haven't had much separation in the past tying their group match and going to Penalties when they faced in 08. Still like Italy to win it all, these sneaky bastards always find a way.

    Or he meant David Villa, whose absence leaves a huge void.

    I'm on the Italians here as well. They should be the favorites going in not Spain. Value is definitely with Italy

    No offence intended LB but to think Spain wouldn't ease through that group is crazy - and it tells me a lot about how much you underestimate them to play their way and win.

    Hedge off some of that money bra, 4500 on Spain not to win, oh no, that could backfire very very badly tonight.

    Look out for the corner kicks bet, Italy lost 14-0 to Germany on corners, Spain love corners - and throw in all that possession and Spain -3 corners looks rather interesting

    Whether you think Spain or Italy will win, you really have to realize if there is value on either side its definitely the italians at + money. I took Italy +0 +181.

    4500 on spain -309 to not win. I'm either gonna be a real happy guy or a real sad one.

    I've put my whole life on the Italian to win the EURO 2012, but since I've seen so many people on them, this bet doesn't look good anymore! Wish I'm wrong!

    Getting worried about the line movement. Spain has been hammered. Is the fix in?

    Not at this level - keep those conspiracies to Serie A, we're just going to see a low scoring game here

    The line movement seems to me like the movement before the first game between these two teams. This one will go to extra time and maybe to a shooutout I think

    A baseless statement with no proof at all. If it had been scripted, Germany would have been playing Spain.

    Yes Spain is out of magic. They won coinflip PKs vs Portugal after an even match (difference with Italy is they thoroughly outplayed England before PKs). Compare that to Spain suffocating and owning Germany in WC semis then playing a top Netherlands very well. This Spain isn't even close to the 2010 squad.

    Italy played Spain the best by far. All kinds of chances, 6 shots on target, only ones to score on Spain. Italy is improving every game, now just off a huge German win. They will beat Spain that is barely hanging on and getting by, now with all the pressure of being in the final again


    Well said.

    I LOL'd at the guy who said Spain wins 3-1.

    Can you explain the +0 italy at +181? Is this wager like a traditional pk where you win the wager if italy wins, and the bet is canceled in case of a tie? Or is it similar to a +1/2 line where you win as long as Italy ties or wins the game out right? I personally took Italy to lift cup at +159 for 11.5 units and italy win in regulation at +324 for 3.5 units.

    Idk what book u use italy +181 most likely to win the cup, I use betislands.. italy is only + 145 there to win the cup , +0.5 -140 , +250 ml in regulation = 90mins

    Yeah it wasn't a mistake, more of a joke about how they are pretty much the same team, but without the great lionel up front, they're nowhere near as effective. I mean cmon, Xavi, iniesta, fabregas, pedro...
