Won £50 from the free bet I posted a few posts up! Easy money ;)

Withdrawn to paypal too, so no hitches either so far...

Did your bet get settled straight away at the 4/1? Me and the Mrs put the same bet on with the same promotion and it settled at the standard odds (8/15 I think it was). Tried the online chat which said the rest will be added within 24 hrs... Which seems a little odd.

I logged in last night and my balance was £50, so withdrew to paypal (my chosen method). Didn't seen to be any hitches. Still no email confirming withdrawal, but I'll expect that tomorrow.
 
Whats everyone up or down then, any big win or huge losses.

I'm stuck around the +300 mark at the moment, can't get out, when I win and do, I lose next and am back in. Hoping tonight will go my way, plus I have a tennis accumulator which if it stopped raining might come in.
 
I'm about 100 up on my actual world cup bets during the tournament. But all of my accas and top scorers etc I did before the tournament started have lost. So about even.
 
I'm around £150-200 in profit - mostly from a win/BTTS treble that won me £100. I'm too poor/scared to bet big, but slow and steady wins the race, right?

I've got some free bets on Brazil/Neymar winner/tgs, Messi tgs, Holland winner, and Germany winner to keep my fingers crossed for.

My two pre-tournament 'to qualify' accas were pretty terrible. I backed Croatia, Portugal, Bosnia, Ivory Coast, Italy, Russia...poor.

Today I've got Mexico to win with under 2.5 goals.

EDIT: So close. Both teams to score for Costa Rica - Greece...

Cash out seems to be working for me today, put £10 on Netherlands to draw when they were a goal down, cashed out just after the equalizer for £31.00

Put £10 on Costa Rica to win, literally cashed out a minute before the red card for £20.

Then lumped £10ish on the draw, and got a little under £40.

Happy days

I hate Greece. So much.

Costa can still either hang on for penalties, or get a lucky break.

Greece has more experience with penalties, but Costa Rica unknowns will have denied any research by Greece on their tactics.


Edit: Costa won on penalties, which makes me £41 better off :)

Now checking the odds for tomorrow's games, there doesn't seem to be anything worth putting on; most odds are 1.2 to 1.5, even accumulators can only net you about 3x.

Had a really good day yesterday. Went half with most goals 2nd in Dutch game and Costa Rica win, which I cashed out on, then had a small bet on Rica to take it on pens, at a risk, but got lucky there.

What worries me about today is that it's to obvious. I hate it when it's like that, as the odds are low, you end up chasing the cash and it sometimes goes wrong.
Imo, obvious double of France Germany, but it's less than evens.

Anyone see any profit in maybe -1 on both france and germany??
 
I've gone for France and Germany win/BTTS. I can certainly see Nigeria getting a goal if they play like they did against Argentina. Rather less confident about Algeria but the odds are good.
 
I honestly don't think any of today/tomorrow's games are worth betting on.

I cannot really see a shock-result from the 'underdog' teams, so the crazy 20:1 odds are worthless to us (valuable for the bookies!).
 
Snuck £25 onto Skybet yesterday, split it 50/50.

Half on draw both games double, then half on NL and Costa Rica win with BTTS double.

Sad :(.
