                  I would very gladly take his bets. Hope i knew hkm. Germany always fail when they are expected to win. But win when they are expected to lose. Take the match against serbia for example. Everybody thinks germany will wib easily aft thumping australia 4-0 but pauls the octopus says serbia!!

                    Germany did not lose that match. Serbia won it. There is a difference. Serbs knew they had to perform a miracle in that match and they succeeded. Good one for the Serb football history books, cause Germany will win this 2010 WC. That's right.

                      How would he feels if it ends in a tie and Germany wins in extra time. Judging by the payout they probably have 90 min only

                            Well, I'm leaning towards Germany, but Tie is always a possibility.
                            ESPN pointed out Yesterday that the top goaler has 5 goals in 14 shots, while the rest of the team has 1 goal in more than 20 shots.
                            Germany could stop the famous and overrated Messi.
                            What will happen?
                            I like the over

                              Classic disinformation, get everyone thinking all the big hitters are on Germany to lure the sheep to take them aswell. They said the same about France, every media agency here had a "man makes 50K bet on France to win the WC", lots of money came in on France and they finish last in the group.

                              Books want the money to keep pouring in on Germany

                                well said. Serbia playedgreat and stopped a penalty too. similiar angle to East Germany in '74.

                                Germany always fail when they are expected to win. But win when they are expected to lose

                                ... explain the 3 world cups and european cup titles then.

                                  Penny players say they wish they have $1000 and they will stop.
                                  Dime players say they wish they have $100K and they will slow down.
                                  To some people, gambling is a disease or maybe to make a living... to others, gambling is the excitement of winning/losing. The Heartache.
                                  We have seen countless people with millions in their hands and still gamble.

                                          This is a sucker bet and bettors who bet crazy like this lose more often than winning.

                                          Germany's style works well against attacking teams. When teams come on them attacking, they will score a lot through excellent counter attacks (example were games against australia, england, argentina). When teams play just full on defense germany struggles (example 1-0 win against ghana and 0-1 loss to serbia). Spain plays full defense and they don't push hard to attack....and they are waaaaaaaaaaaaay better than ghana and serbia.

                                          Poor guy probably betting based on the score against argentina/england etc. But england this year was crap. Argentina had very shitty defense and their defense was not tested until germany. Public on the Over 2.5 and germany will get slaughtered in this game.

                                              One of my books in Australia streams all bets over $5k I think it is. Definitely makes you sit up and think about it when you see $20k come in on some lower level footy team or a cyclist or whatever. Smart marketing ploy.

                                                  Spain will win 2-0 or 3-1.

                                                      Germany is much better than Spain. Spain has played like Italy and are lucky to be this far.

                                                        that is so much money, but if he is betting 630k, even though it seems a lot to us it must be nothing to him.

                                                              if i bet that much money, i would be watching the game with a bottle of Jack, a whore, and a loaded suicide gun. hopefully i win and only have to use 2 of those items.
