World Cup 2018 betting thread...

[Elite]

It’d be nice! At the very least it’s given me some interest in those matches. Although we’re away this weekend so I’ll definitely miss those games on Saturday. Fingers crossed it’s not already fucked by the time we get back on Sunday afternoon.

There's a good chance of it coming in but upsets will happen, just hopefully not in the games you have picked.

[VladimirIlyich]

Will be a few draws as it will suit both teams. Its a downside of these tournaments that its groups first and knockouts later.

[Hand Shandy]

Ok ladies, I fancy making this a bit more interesting by putting a few quid on teams here and there.

 

Not a betting man usually, so tell me the best bookie/app to go with in terms of ease and free bets.

 

Am doing the Super Six thing with some mates and Sky Bet ads are all over it, but I don't want to line Murdoch's pockets...

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Suarez is 10/11 anytime scorer today.

 

Not massive odds, but I expected him to be much shorter odds than that.

Have a bet on double chance Egypt and draw today. North African teams tend to draw and be defensive a lot so might sneak something,even without Mo.

Cheers Vlad, but you didn't really read my request, did you?

 

Gone with William Hill - £10 deposit, 4 X £10 free bets.

 

Germany to win it, Jesus top scorer. Three free bets left

 

I'll piss around with some others over the weekend.

[Gym Beglin]

I won a £100 free bet the other day. I was thinking about matched betting it and guaranteeing myself £70 profit but I decided to just punt it on this sixfold at 4.83/1 instead.

 

 

Hopefully a bit of extra spending money for our holiday this year.

Put it on Morocco to beat Iran in the second half.

 

Going to be a lot of this in the tournament, the shit sides giving 110% for an hour and then shipping a couple of goals as they tire.

[Gym Beglin]

Lukaku top scorer, Belgium will massacre Panama and Tunisia, and are likely to score against England too. He is basically the only bloke who scores for them.

 

Think Portugal might get far, and a lot of the odds will be shaped by tonight's game v Spain. Portugal could even lose tonight, but still be a threat to Spain later in the comp, but at big odds once they lose. They started slow in 2016.

 

Still think Ronaldo is a massive threat, not been a lot spoken about him in the run-up to this tournament.

Your autocorrect changed twat to threat there. Sloppy work.

Go for correct scores then. 1-1 will crop up a few times but I'd put them on in play at half time. At half time there are fewer options and i usually dutch 1-1,0-2,2-0 if there have been a few shots on target and a bit of action in the game. If you are not going to lay them off then in play offers the best value.

[TheBitch]

£5 in profit after 2 days from settled bets.

 

No idea what I'm gonna spend it all on.

[Grinch]

Centre backs as first scorers are always good value in International tournaments.

 

Noticed you don't really see the 33's anymore though, haven't been looking so far this tournament though.  

 

Finally got a few days off to relax and gamble so expect the shocks to start

[Jairzinho]

Did you get on Gimenez?

 

Anyone?

[Gym Beglin]

I put a fiver in Ronaldo top scorer and Portugal to win the WC at 66/1.

 

Same with Lukaku/Belgium at 80/1.

 

Hopefully get a nice cash out opp later.

[TheBitch]

What are we on today?

 

France/Argentina is 4/6

[Jairzinho]

Got a 10 fold and 13 fold that need a Croatia win.

 

Didn't fancy touching France or Argentina today. Think one of them, more likely the latter, drops points.

That's slimmer pickings than Victoria Beckham's dinner plate.

Unlucky mate. There's always one bunch of twats that balls you up.

[TheBitch]

Well called.

Yeah I swerved the Argies on J's advice.

Well done that man.

[Captain Turdseye]

Pure wankers they are. I had about six other coupons going and this was the only game that was on all of them. Shithouse cunts.

 

Howie’s getting five historic negs every day for this. It’s a fucking liberty.

[TheHowieLama]

Think we have seen a top team performance here today -- only one winner.

[Captain Turdseye]

Just checked LiveScore and seen that Messi missed a penalty as well. Fucking hell.

 

Mrs Turdseye told me I was rubbish at gambling and that I should have matched betted my way to some money and now I’m going to jail for domestic violence.

I'd have matched betted it but it was a free punt at a few hundred quid so can't blame you.

[TheHowieLama]

Iceland proven to be the team of the tournament so far -- anyone looking to put together a "Rest of the Field" aggregate - they can be hAD FOR 2 POUNDS in this sweepstakes.
