    MLB's World Cup Thread

    I too will be starting a thread .. many of you have seen my ups and downs in every sport so I'm not expecting too much in the way of responses, but I just want to start a thread to keep track of my picks!

    I love the world cup so why not!

    Good luck to everyone and hopefully this is a fun and money-making month!

    My first future will be:

    Brazil to win world cup [+400] (.5u)

    Will start with a conservative pick as I know the value is not all that high, but I believe the safety is .. many of you saw me go crazy after a poor baseball day the other day so I will not try and push anything early.

    Mexico PICK (-130) (1u)

    I really think they will win as square as can be, but I will go with a draw saving my butt!!

    Good luck to all!

    3 bets in a soccer game is a tough way to make $$$. play the ML.

    the draw makes three betting options. With ML bets in a tie game its a push but they have steeper prices.

    I like South Korea but not enough to take them and I will not be around tomorrow morning so probably won't have a play.

    Going with my first parlay .. going to see how these go to start the WC, I'm afraid they might struggle for the most part, but I like this one. (Was going to include England with them or in favor of one of them, but I am just nervous to.)

    Parlay: Argentina [-250]/Germany [-200] - [+110] (1.5u)

    Germany comes through with the best performance of the cup so far to cap off my parlay .. as soon as I saw them starting to pick it up I thought I had it

    soo in soccer they have what is called extra/stoppage time. this is time that they tack onto the end of each half to make up for stoppages in play due to throw ins, corner kicks, injurie, etc. this is because the referees do not stop the clock during the game. thats why when each half ends, there is a few extra minutes tacked onto the half.

    but i definitely wouldnt recommend betting on soccer if i didnt know something like that. case in point: New Zealand scored in the 93' to tie Slovakia yesterday.

    This would be the equivalent to laying down money on a hockey game and not knowing that the game is over when someone scores in OT. gotta be careful with that kinda stuff, could lose money QUICKLY in the extra time of a soccer game.
