Cardiovascular Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Finally a decent run! £30 won off a bet on Falcao 2+ Shots on target and 1+ offside @ 5/1 and then £75 off Gueye and Krychowiak to be carded @ 14/1. About time too. Also still in the running for my no 0-0s in the group stages bet too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgy Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 45 minutes ago, ArsenalFan7 said: The refereeing at this is absolutely infuriating for bets. 14 fouls for Tunisia last night and no card including the rugby tackles, needed the one card for a nice payout Just goes to show booking points are stupid as refs con you out of money with their idiocy, sickening. Outrights look absolutely screwed now with Colombian qualification unlikely and unlikely chance I get 4 group goals off them. Meanwhile what I considered to be my banker in Brazil, Spain, Germany and France in the quarters looks screwrd because Brazil and Germany will probably play each other in the round of 16. I have to laugh, looked great on paper. The world cup is boring so far, with not much to shout about stats wise or in the way of predictability. Backing the under markets looks the way to go I stuck my free £5 bets (from Lukaku' goals) on England to win, Kane to score then a combo of booking PTS (over 30&50) and corners, was fuming at the ref haha. Group H is far from over whilst Brazil and Germany's groups are far from settled, wouldn't surprise me if both finished 2nd behind Croatia and Mexico so those are still looking decent enough, I've got a bet that both of those England and Belgium reach the quarters and it's deffo still on, proper early days. I'm not using my own money to bet on the world cup now, placed a few quid before the start but just using free bets now, WH keep giving £2 free bets on their scratch and win offer whilst the prize machine gives occasional decent prizes on skybet and coral keep giving £1 free bets on their player build and bet markets, make sure you're signed up to them Your 1000/1 shot is still on isn't it? 44 minutes ago, Cardiovascular said: About time too.

ArsenalFan7 Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 Not me on a 1000/1, I'm impressed 8+ corners lasted that long Feeling similar about limiting the money down, this world cup is very unpredictable and poor for RABs. Ironically, the Spain winning the world cup bet looks the best value of the lot now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArsenalFan7 Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 Today has been the only good day so far. Won on the Falcao 2+ shots on target and offside bet as well, had a laugh at that 89th minute offside. Lost on Senegal Poland by a couple corners but then had a nice £50 winner on Russia Egypt. Tomorrow I have gone for a double of Spain and Uruguay to win, O1.5 goals and a clean sheet for the pair at 4.4, which seems a bit generous to me. Hoping to get a bit of a roll going.

Iran need a result so will surely be a little more adventurous in their attacking. They played well Vs Spain and caused them some problems so they can do the same to Portugal.

chopra_hill Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Think my only pre tournament bet still looking ok is Panama and Saudi Arabia to score 0 and concede 5 or more at 40/1. Expect Panama or Saudi to get one in their easiest games in round 3 though tbf. Arguably my Argentina to win it is still going after today but I think it's safe to say that won't be coming in. Other bets were an eight fold on teams to finish bottom that Iran and probably Japan will let down l. Got £20 on Messi, Neymar and Griezman to get 3 or more which isn't looking great although the GOAT can step up any time. And got a tenner on Kane, Ronaldo, Costa, Lukaku, Griezman, Suarez, Mbappe, Jesus, Lewandowski and Messi scoring 2 or more at 40/1 still going but very unlikely. 4 in, 3 with 1 and 3 with 0. If Lewandowski and Messi could drag them through it'd be a touch but looks unlikely. apart from that I've probably staked about £750 since the tournament started and am £100 odd down so all a waste of time really!

JD nawrat Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 No 0-0s might be the best bet in here. If that comes in it'll be some shout especially with Brazil yesterday and countless other late goals to stop 0-0s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think there will be a 0-0, the most likely candidate would be the final game in Panama Tunisia, which would be rather funny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon_84 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Over 3.5 bookings in the Belgium game @ evens.

Weezer Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Got a friendly competition going with my cousin where we both started with a tenner and have to make a single bet on every single match.
