    World Cup halftimes

    I'll post pre-game thoughts on others threads but I decided to make this one as I always enjoy making 2H bets.

    As posted earlier, hit the over 1 (-125) in Greece/Colombia for 4 units

    Let's keep this going.

    All thoughts or 'cappers welcome

    I sorta like Costa Rica +0.5 here +150. Something about this game made me skittish to start when I thought about Uruguay -1 or -1.5

    I see 2H tie here or maybe Costa Rica comes up big to get a result. Tough call. I'll make a final call in about 5 minutes.

    +150? My book is showing the costa rica +1.5 (same bet) at -118. Don't see why your book would be so different

    4 units on Costa Rica +.5 (+150)

    I see them equalizing or losing by 1. Maybe even a huge suprise here. Who knows, it's futbol/soccer

    If Costa Rica gets a tie or loses by 1, I win. If yours is 2H +1.5, it suggests you can win with the Ticos losing by 2 in the final score.

    No mime is a live 1.5 spread, but they are down by one and thus halftime makes it a .5 second half spread. It's the same bet just live vs 2nd half bet so shouldnt be difft. Regardless, i took uruguay to score next goal at -125.

    Equalize!

    (I'm staying conservative, just didn't have the nerve but thought about +515 for Costa Rica 3 way 2H)

    You didn't say anything, if I recall. I am pushing over. Guaranteed non-loser on this over. Someone will score again. Looks like another England one to make it interesting late ...

    The Swiss will figure them out. The question is whether to go Swiss +125, PK -155, or over 1.5 +130

    stackin - question - think i got bad advice earlier - if I bet Sui +120 second half, and this game finishes 1-1 (so sui wins second half 1-0) - is that bet a winner or does switzerland need to win game for it to win? I don't bet much soccer (obviously) so trying to get more educated

    You win. It is a 3 way bet on the last 45+injury time. If you took PK -155 as I had above, Switzerland could maintain 0-0 2nd half score, lose 1-0 final result, and you push. Notice that in that scenario, however, your +120 would lose.

    Other people have "LIVE" (in game) betting, in which you JUST look at final outcome. Those have different prices, of course according to the proposition at hand.

    Best of luck. Back here during France Honduras ...

    We were all over that one. I wish I hadn't hesitated so much to put it in. I got rejected right at 2nd half kick

    I thought before game this would be a draw at +450 ... but pre-game these are hard... CONCACAF tougher than people think.

    Goals have come in bunches. What was the total for this one, 2? Check that, just saw 2.5 again. Bookmakers are overdoing it because the OVER streak is so hot!

    Up 15 units, haven't missed a pick yet, 2 pushes. You can be conservative here and not lose.

    My guys haven't released 2H lines here, boo

    I came here after reading the title....I was sure it must be something about these games being drawn at half time.

    I have bet like 6 or 7 halftime draws and each n everyone has won!

    But good work! will keep checking on this thread....

    I didn't like the games. Didn't really trust IC, Greece, or Japan/Colombia game

    Back for more tomorrow, boys
