    MY WORLD CUP 5 TEAM PARLAY -- SUCKER BET or VALUE?
    Parlay/Round Robin

    Selection 1: England over USA -185

    Selection 2: Germany over Australia -191

    Selection 3: Italy over Paraguay -104

    Selection 4: Brazil over Korea -780

    Selection 5: Spain over Switzerland -275


    Pays just over 6-1.

    Though I haven't always bet on it I've been a soccer fan all of my life and realize that draws do happen. Any one of these favourites could come out flat and conceivably screw me. USA has pulled some pretty stunning results on the world stage. Italy is most worrisome to me because they've become a bit notorious for starting flat and could potentially even lose SU if they don't have their act together, but I needed a team near even odds to make it somewhat worth while.

    I'm not saying it's a surefire, but from the angle I see this it sure as hell hits more than 1/6 times. What are your thoughts? Who might be the weak link?

    It looks very good

    I cant fathom brazil, germany and spain not obliterating the oposition

    and I dont think italy or england loose, but a draw in one of the two is possible, some bookies offer soccer bets moneylines, and if they draw it just voids the game, but you obviously get lower odds, but it may be worth it to pay the juice and be more confident IMO

      Italy over Paraguay is your weak link. Paraguay are a bitch to beat. That will most likely be a tie.

      Italy usually struggles to get a smooth pass to the knockouts.

            Brazil and Spain are the 2 sure things. Anything can happen in the USA game and the germans should win but you never know . Get rid of the italy one- that is the most dangerous one.
