The 2014-15 Betting Thread *Spoilers*

Well i screwed the pooch yesterday. Was sat in the barbers and put money on Ivory Coast then i spotted a game in the 91st minute which was 2-2 so i threw a pile on under 4 goals.

Both lost. No more money in my pot. Any other available funds are in transit to my bank so no more bets for me till Monday at the earliest :(
 
Gone for

Italy 2-1, France 1-0 and Ecuador 2-1

Italy 3-1, France 2-1 and Ecuador Honduras 1-1

Yeah they both need a win so I can see it being an open game.

Ecuador have had a few recent high scoring games:

Ecuador 2-2 England
Mexico 3-1 Ecuador
Australia 3-4 Ecuador

Also, back in November Honduras and Ecuador played each other in a friendly and the score was 2-2.
 
I have 3 bets left to run and 63p left in the pot. This was my first time betting and will be my last. I have nowhere near the needed level of luck. :D
 
So just looked at and tallied up the odds history for the World Cup. If you bet £1 on every single game, choosing either the favourites or the outsiders (ignoring the draw and the odds for that) then...

Picking Favourites
Stake: £24
Winnings: £22.64
Loss: £11
P/L: -£9.64

Picking Outsiders
Stake: £24
Winnings: £35.85
Loss: £17
P/L: £18.85

Interesting! Would take some balls to bet £100 on the underdogs from every single game but you'd be sitting on a profit of £1,885 if you had. And of course could/would probably be even more with better odds.
