Copa America Contest -- 10 point entry fee

[latinrus]

Hey guys - I'll be posting SoV's picks like he said so just bear with me if the timing's a bit off. I'm on a lot though so it should work out.

I'm also donating 250 pts to the contest. Really happy to see this going on in the soccer forum and I hope you all have a great time with it. If I had a clue, I'd enter as well. Best of luck!

Thanks for the support Shari

A lot of us thought we had a clue, so far I'm 0-4 So u could have a chance

[latinrus]

Yupp 0-3 here boss. Brazil will samba all over the pitch today, hoping for goals.

I really don't know if I can believe on Brazil!

They may be like Argentina, I know Venezuela is weak, but they so Bolivia was.

Also Brazil hasn't been impressive lately.

2 last games they went out of the pitch with all the brazilian fans booing the team.

They are in a similar position with Argentina, great player, no team game. And Meneses is not the best coach IMO!

[FindTheLock]

Brazil will be the first favorite to cover fellas. Bet on it!

[beeps220]

I'm glad I'm not betting these for real, 0-3

Yeah guy, but we're picking on the spread and over under, so the lines barely get above -115.

Correct, no laying of chalk on ML. Sbr book had lines as PK for Paraguay game, which was easy, so I looked at odds and had 0.5 as the spread.

Also, I get my charger tomorrow, so I will update points list, and standings list.

Btw, I'm 0-4 too.

[shari91]

wtf's going on in here??? I had a chance to win!!!!

Just kidding guys. I'm sure everyone will get back on track now. Best of luck!

[latinrus]

I'm on the under in Brazil but seems this may be a bloodbath!


of course I may go 0-6!

[FindTheLock]

damn off the cross bar. I sure hope this game picks up lol

[latinrus]

This is 0-0 cause of a miracle!

Hoping the miracle will last for a long time

[FindTheLock]

yeah Brazil look good, but they are not finishing their chances and I have them -2 and O3 so not finishing is killing me right now. I need a big scoring spree in the 2H

[beeps220]

I'm on the under in Brazil but seems this may be a bloodbath!

I have the over in Brazil

That means it will land on 3

[latinrus]

Pffffff what a lucky shoulder!

The ball was going in basically after Robinho shoot!

Still 0-0!

I'm still waiting the 2nd half to send my picks for the Paraguay - Ecuador game!

Depending on how it goes I'll pick or not!

[gti175]

Brazil screwing around too much , should have had 2 at least

[FindTheLock]

well that was one way to keep them from scoring, but I have a feeling Brazil will open them up in the 2H, and once one goes in then they will start scoring at will. I still have hope! Even if it doesn't look good right now.

[shari91]

SoV's picks

Brazil -2
Under 3

Paraguay -0.5
Under 2.5

[beeps220]

Looks like I'll be going to 0-6

I picked Paraguay in the next match for anyone that wants to fade me.

[FindTheLock]

damn I was doing well until this match. Brazil getting blanked by Venezuela??? That's very sad lol

[latinrus]

Last game in the WC qualification games ended 0-0 also!

[yisman]

so much for Brazil being first to cover.

[RubberKettle]

If Pato scored instead of hitting the post this game would be a 3+ to nil. Venezuela has really offered nothing, but fouls and break up the play. I even noticed their goalie was wasting time in the 18'

I'll take it thought, glad I finally hit a play.

If this ends in a draw its huge incentive for both Paraguay and Ecuador. I think a 1-0 either way might be the score later tonight.

[latinrus]

Was expecting goals with all this strikers!

Messi, Tevez, yesterday Falcao, today Rondon, Pato, Neymar, Robinho and so far nothing!

Forlan, Suarez, Cavani will show up!

[FindTheLock]

It's Venezuela??? that puts me back at 0 lol

[gti175]

Neymar = over rated

[FindTheLock]

I went 2-0 and now 0-2. Paraguay has to do something. I can't imagine it staying this ugly with of the players on these teams. something has to give eventually.

[latinrus]

The ecuadorian keeper saving from a goal!

And so far no goal, kind of boring games!

[latinrus]

ok went 3-1 today!

But still in the hole 3-5!

I needed to stay away of Paraguay today and just take the damn under!

[FindTheLock]

I am -1 now!! What a load of crap. two 0-0 games!

[SoV]

Got my charger back!

Will update everything before today's games start.

I hope nobody is betting real money on this.

Finally had a fukking winner!

[yisman]

So how many matches are there? I want to see if I can make the minimum.

[SoV]

Total of 26 matches, so minimum of 26 bets. Think you can still make it, tbh.
