have you actually made money betting world cup?

[hoopster42]

please be honest about units up and money won. thanks

[2daBank]

in the 1st round or whatever they call it i did, but i have lost that all back now, i guess its justice since i dont know shit about soccer and pretty much got up taking draw and under....

[hoopster42]

its a tough fukkin sport to bet well even if you know a lot about it

[waco66]

Yes. i have placed 4 bets this world cup. 2 in the first round then Argentina in the round of 16 then germany today. Very selective due to the fact anything can happen. Next bet for me would be Holland ML vs Uruguay. Hopefully I can go 5-0. However if I decided to bet on every single game..i would be down money. Thats one advice I would give people who want to bet on this world cup..be careful and selective.

[jayc88]

best sport for me to bet on
i'm up well over 15 units and bet max 2 units a game

[hoopster42]

props to anyone who can actually predict draws

[TennisBabe]

Yes, however a lot of my profit has to do with the 0-0 Paraguay-Japan match

[Taka]

Bet on most and I'm not up This WC is nothing like I'm used to...

[thabeest]

props to anyone who can actually predict draws

Thank you.

[DarkNite]

All my profit from the leagues gone, now it starts biting my bankroll, but anyway I have a lot of fun, once every 4 years. I hope after WC, will start build up new BR.
I wish Espanol can score and win this match.

[DolphinSpurs]

Broke even group stages. Up 7ish units so far in the knockout round with a couple more riding on the under 2 in this match.

[JimmysEgo]

i started off strong, thought i was a soccer genius, but then i came back to reality and went on a losing streak.

[D3 Mighty Ducks]

I've made my share of money on WC. If I actually had complete control over myself and was a degenerate I would of won a lot more money

[GiveMeaBJ]

France killed me. Then Germany killed me. I have been making a comeback though. Backed the Netherlands every game and betting against Italy has gotten me almost even.

[rm18]

I do not even follow soccer and World Cup betting just comes easy to me, Germany is obviously the best team and they are dogs every game it is unreal. Netherlands is not even better than Uruguay and they are -300

Lost a $2500 bet on Netherlands corner kicks or would be up a lot more but games seem to be very easy to beat.

[PeePee]

I lost about $900 in the first round (betting mostly favors)
Won back everything and up around $ 1K in the second rd (betting mostly So. Amer teams and dogs)
Breaking even in the 3rd (yesterday and today).

I'm playing $100 - $400 per game.

[suckerforparlays]

I predicted a lot of parody in this year world cup and yep it was everything I thought it would be so far

[cactuslv]

only betting under and dogs

[BiffTFinancial]

yes, i'm up about 30 units, but i've been ridiculously fortunate, particularly with live betting, esp. overs (e.g., Argie/Germany today, Brazil/Chile, Argie/Mexico). mostly 2, 3, 4u bets. never bet WC before this year, and i'm sure it's beginner's luck - and it's mostly been selectively tailing two buddies of mine who are knuckle-deep into soccer betting. thought it had run out today with about 8u on Argie/Germany over and more than 5u on Spain -1 - clearly pressing for no reason. probably time to count myself very lucky and pack it in for the rest of the way.

[gryfyn1]

In the round robin I was more or less even I wen 15-20-1, and was actually + but less than 1unit

The Knock out stage has been insanley good to me, so far In 16-3-2 and up about 17 ( was up 6 just today with Germany & the over)

I felt the knock out stage was easier to judge, based on the fact that team were playing to win, as opposed to playing games not to lose

[jbrent95]

I've only bet 2 games: Germany and Spain today.

[aurorabra]

I have prop before starting

Holland to win
+1300

[jjgold]

I lost about 8 units, did not put any on spreadsheet but did lose

[poker_dummy101]

im 1-0-2..so ive made 3 wagers..i do not bet online anymore,ill drive a few hours to vegas for my wagers,i won 3k on usa vs algeria under and pushed the under in ghana match yesterday and pushed with spain today, i just find it funny that all these people are soccer "experts" now,world cup is really hard to bet on,i normally bet on epl and some liga but thats about it,i dont follow international that much..i just know the top teams but thats about it..4 matches left..only ones i may touch is netherlands this week and probably spain/germany vs uruguay for 3rd place..yes netherlands will be in the finals fa sho

[Tommy_de1st]

Bet on most and I'm not up This WC is nothing like I'm used to...

same here

[sjm5122]

The opening rounds cut my bankroll in half, I got out shortly after that to stop the bleeding.

[juuso]

Yeah, made pretty good coin so far. Tournaments have softer odds than big leagues.

[Fishhead]

Highlight of my summer...........been fabulous.

[maersksealand]

I made 5 or 6 bets for action...bets so small I didn't even bother to calculate if I won or lost overall.

[blackf1re]

Very profitable WC so far. Check my thread or spreadsheet.

[RealSlimShady]

Have been doing OK overall, but lost a big bet when I bet on "draw" on Matchbook's interactive in the Spain/Paraguay game.
