Unlucky SOV, that half time bet was definitely the right call.

bobbyhazell · 06-15-10, 09:51 AM

What do you all think for the 2nd half?

I took Portugal No Goals @ 3.35 and layed them (i.e draw or Ivory Coast wins for me) @ 2.32 Live after about 20.

Will look to trade out if Portugal come out to play in the 2nd. I think they had 1 shot in the first, although obviously with Ronaldo it only takes 1 moment of magic.

Ok, you can thank me now

Good pick. I had that and Ivory Coast DNB. Didn't post them after the debacle today in the Slovakia game.

Cheers for the kind words, Bobby. I'll get the bookies back soon.

Its a joke mate, just back fukking 0-0 every game and laugh all the way to the bank as games continue to be absolute crap and devoid of any attacking talent at all.

SoV · 06-15-10, 11:36 AM

Yea, if I did all bets I would be rolling in thousands right now.

Hopefully, Brazil turn it on tonight. And Spain tomorrow.

SoV · 06-15-10, 12:53 PM

Can't decide what to take for the Brazil game.

Squirrel · 06-15-10, 12:59 PM

North Korea ML would just about sum up the world cup so far

Tommy_de1st · 06-15-10, 03:38 PM

Smart bet was N.Korea +2.5

SoV · 06-16-10, 01:26 AM

Didn't bet anything for the game. Really enjoyed watching it.

Gonna make some $$$ today. I just know it.

SoV · 06-16-10, 03:13 AM

Leaning-

Chile, Spain double
Chile, Spain, Uruguay treble
Spain -1 (Thinking of going in big)

I likes all of those SOV. Still want to watch Chile for 10 before betting on them, thinking of a Chile Clean Sheet punt if Honduras look as unambitious as I think they might be. Very, very hard to see Spain not winning by at least 2.

SoV · 06-16-10, 06:12 AM

Chile, Spain double (4x)

bobbyhazell · 06-16-10, 06:42 AM

Gone Chile 1.77, live. Some attacking intent at last.

Vaya España!

Squirrel · 06-16-10, 08:45 AM

Chile were outstanding today I thought, they'll be a worthy bet to piss all over the Swiss in a few days.

SoV · 06-16-10, 08:55 AM

Spain -1 (8x)

SoV · 06-16-10, 10:33 AM

Buried.

Goat Milk · 06-16-10, 10:59 AM

get the next game SOV no one could have seen this coming. I like South Africa first half at over +300.

BetfairUser · 06-16-10, 11:03 AM

anyone else like the draw and under for uruguay?

SoV · 06-16-10, 11:03 AM

Can't get my head around it. Quality squad. Plus they were playing at ****ing sea-level (same as Germany) and not at an altitude like other teams.

Taking a break till the second round now. Can't afford to lose anymore.

bobbyhazell · 06-16-10, 11:16 AM

Unlucky SOV, who would have thought?

If you're able to watch a game, maybe hold off any wagers until you've had a look at the first ten, you can tell so much more than any pre match conjecture, then hit betfair and maybe trade out. It's working really well for me. Sorry again for the Spain bet, proper unlucky.

Sounds good to me BetfairUser, check how SA come out though, they may decide they need to win this one and throw themselves forward more, bound to be more attacking going on in the 2nd round of matches at some point.

Squirrel · 06-16-10, 11:45 AM

**** it pal, doesnt matter what you do you'll get buried - just get out your luckiest coin and toss it, thats how I'm making picks from here on out

SoV · 06-16-10, 12:00 PM

Bobby, thing is, I would have been buried in the in-game betting as well since Spain started brightly. This WC has been terrible so far. Will tail you guys for a bit now, if you don't mind.

bobbyhazell · 06-16-10, 01:28 PM

Fair do's SOV, I was working so couldn't watch it, probably dodged a bullet. Anyway lets all see what we can come up with for tonights game.

bobbyhazell · 06-16-10, 01:43 PM

I've gone for Uruguay clean sheet at 2.35, if it keeps that way I'll probably trade it out if SA start streaming forward. Always a risky bet but Uruguay are tight and SA lack quality.

Edit - price was 2.44

SoV · 06-17-10, 02:17 AM

Nice one, Bobby!

I had a future bet on Forlan to score more than 1.5 goals in the World Cup, which came in. Did Forland FGS and Uruguay ML. Seems if I don't post and just discuss the game, I hit.

SoV · 06-17-10, 04:40 AM

Who likes Argentina today?

Goat Milk · 06-17-10, 04:51 AM

France won't lose today

I agree.

Squirrel · 06-17-10, 05:03 AM

I like the Argies and France, but the ARG ML price is trash so took the over 2.5 instead. France should take care of Mexico fairly easy.

Hopefully the Uruguay game last night was the start of the best teams playing well and winning games.

SoV · 06-17-10, 05:05 AM

I'm liking Argentina -1.

Goat Milk · 06-17-10, 05:14 AM

Argentina is tough to call. I can see a draw there, but Argentina won't lose for sure. I don't like the -1. Their defense is shaky but South Korea is a hard team for me to get a grip on.

I like France Mexico over 2 goals at +120. Think France wins 2-1. We are going to start seeing consecutive overs in this tourny as everyone starts to pound unders.
