Wilforth and Smogs World Cup Collaboration

Good luck.

But why not stick just to the ROI? Your strike rate says nothing about your net return. You could even end up losing money with a 58% strike rate.

Smogs · 06-01-10, 06:19 AM

Good point, it was just there as an aim, but overall units are the main aim

TurkzZ · 06-01-10, 07:52 AM

sounds good, two minds are better then one, drastically reduces the risk of chasing as well lol

BOL guys, let's hope great minds think alike and we can make some coin this WC

Gandev · 06-01-10, 09:30 AM

Good luck - I'm always following your bets and I'm very interested in your first WC analysis!

BOL fellas, looking forward to it

lets go South Korea!

mihaita666 · 06-01-10, 03:34 PM

this is a good idea. we should make more such pairs :P

Tommy_de1st · 06-01-10, 04:01 PM

Very good concept

So lets be all advised not to open other threads regarding picks on WC teams. There are too many already.

My idea is to show Yield as well. I can be calculated as follows:

Y=(W/S)-1

W-winnings
S-stake

bolekblues · 06-01-10, 04:16 PM

Good Luck

simonsolent · 06-01-10, 04:18 PM

Good idea guys, liking the look of this. Roll on next Friday!

I will use mine until romanian liga 1 2010/2011 season starts (it starts the first, two weeks before EPL), at the begining of August.
It would be great not to see 5 threads "usa-england", but these things happen and be sure that it won;t be those who are active and old members of the football forum those who will do that.

Smogs · 06-01-10, 05:17 PM

To follow on from Mihai, i think it would be great if as soon as someone puts up a 'Mexico/South Africa thread', no one then makes another. Then all our views go into there.

Me and wil will have a lot of thought in here but i'll still contribute to daily threads etc.

What we as a forum have to look out for is the people who bet American sports all year round, then come in here for 2 weeks and post a load of shite, including all the abusive stuff when they tail a losing pick. All that crap can stay in the NBA thread thank you very much

You need to send a PM to the mods to police the soccer forum during the WC and use the report button to report the trolls.

mihaita666 · 06-01-10, 06:32 PM

good idea, pavy.

JOHON8 · 06-01-10, 06:36 PM

Stick to ROI in my opinion. There are some plays you should concentrate more than others = greater unit wins if you hit the bigger plays.

Great thread guys.

ji03 · 06-01-10, 06:40 PM

Two good cappers. I'm expecting good things from this thread.

good luck guys, my stuff will be in my thread. lets get em

Real shame about that, my ex-gf lives literally just outside Whitehaven. Cannot believe that stuff has now come to Britain, always hear about that stuff happening in America or Finland but rarely here. Would have to go back to Dunblane for the last instance

Smogs · 06-05-10, 04:52 AM

We are starting to see the bookies adjust lines.

From Bet365, England have gone from 8/15 to 4/9 to beat USA. We need a lot of public money on the USA to try and get the better price on England as i know me and Wil both like that bet.

Looking at futures, i like either Fabiano or Villa to get the golden boot.

Slovenia to qualify from group C, Germany to win group D but it's hard to find some real good odds.

A lot of -200 odds kicking about for group qualification and winning the group.

Initial first days thoughts are HT draw France/Uruguay and Mexico dnb, but also a small play on the draw. I see a 1-1 there but cannot see the hosts winning it

simonsolent · 06-05-10, 05:08 AM

Agree with you on the Mexico game, I backed them yesterday at 10/11 dnb.

mihaita666 · 06-05-10, 05:11 AM

oh boy, i cant wait for his to start.....I like Slovenia to qualify too.

Smogs · 06-05-10, 05:39 AM

Obviously the problem on SBR will be who qualifies from Group C, Slovenia or USA.

Lots of squares who can't point Slovenia on a map will unload all over USA, but Slovenia is looking a sharp play. i'll probably be watching Slovenia/Algeria more intently than England/USA from the betting angle of it

mihaita666 · 06-05-10, 05:54 AM

Smogs, you know, WC = Euro + Brazil and Argentina, so Slovenia is very likely to be the play
