The 2014-15 Betting Thread *Spoilers*

Shaqiri just got the hattrick

 

[Fulax]

So close

 

[gilchrd]

Damn you France.

Benzema 6.00 golden boot, may score 1 or more tonight, good odds no?

In a team top scorer acca if a top scorer is tied for their team what happens? does it get voided and rest wins?

I don't know how all bookies calculate it, but on Bwin they say the following for a dead heat:

Player A at odds of 10/1
Player B at odds of 5/1

If the above finish as a dead heat then the payout will be (stake x odds / 2).
In the case of a 3 way tie it would be (stake x odds / 3) and so on.

Dropped todays bets on... in traditional accumulator style...

Hoping for no draws, or shock turn-around results. Uncertainty over Portugal winning, so I dropped the same on Ghana.

Yeah I can't see Portugal winning either.. I think it will be a fairly open game too as both teams need the win so I can see a lot of goals.

Not betting on the USA Germany game, I can't really call it either way.

Russia have looked pretty poor attack-wise so far but they seem pretty tight defensively.

South Korea have to win today and will need to play attacking football. They did the same against Algeria and looked pretty open at times so I can see a few goals being scored.

I've gone for:

Portugal v Ghana
Over 3.5 Goals - Over/Under 3.5 Goals @ 2.52
Ghana +1.0 - Handicap Match Result @ 1.80

Algeria v Russia
Under 2.5 Goals - Over/Under 2.5 Goals @ 1.97
Algeria +1.0 - Handicap Match Result @ 1.75

South Korea v Belgium
Over 2.5 Goals - Over/Under 2.5 Goals @ 1.87

 

[Ayahuasca]

Probably get on over 6 corners in each half on the South Korea game.

 

[doodah]

Why would WH suspend BTS for the Germany game? Had it in my accumalator (yet to place) and the BTS for the Germany game won't accept.

 

[Fulax]

Shaqiri's third goal cost me £100 yesterday, so today I'm backing goals: POR-GHA over 2.5 goals and GER-USA, SKO-BEL, ALG-RUS all over 1.5 goals.

 

[doodah]

Suarez golden boot next season?

 

[RedvGreen]

Probably get on over 6 corners in each half on the South Korea game.

Coral only seem to do 0-9; 13+ or 10-12 for corners.

Suarez golden boot next season?

More like Golden teeth.

I don't think he will have much positive going for him next season, especially with any potential repercussions from his stupid stupid actions in the Italy game.

I've been finding it harder and harder to get the right results lately. Lot's of things like team resting has cause draws where wins should be. Ghana are a nightmare bet at the moment. They have sent home, Muntari and Boeteng, not sure if that's a good or a bad thing for the team.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Ghana haven't started too badly, neither have USA to be fair either.

Yeah I didn't realise that until after I put the bet on unfortunately. I probably wouldn't have gone for Ghana+1 and just gone for the Over 3.5. Having said that if it stays like this I'll be glad I kept it on! Haha

But yeah the last couple of days have been a bit of a nightmare. I reckon it will get better once we get to the knockouts

 

[RedvGreen]

So far i've won the Muller + Ronaldo to score, and one of my 2 accumulators is still alive - relying on Belgium and Algeria to win!

 

[el_dazza]

Cursed

 

[gilchrd]

Separate bets on Belgium and Algeria wins.

 

[RedvGreen]

Come on Belgium and Algeria

 

[gilchrd]

My Betvictor account is cursed at the moment, Belgium down to 10 ffs.

 

[sk82jack]

Jeez man it looks like all 5 of my bets today aren't coming through

Edit: The Algeria Russia one's came through so some nice damage limitation there
