The 2014-15 Betting Thread *Spoilers*

[el_dazza]

I'm at college tomorrow so depending on how fast I can drive home, I can get on in 3 shops.

 

[doodah]

Any decent odds or tips for 'to qualify'?

 

[Russinating]

Just avoid the groups of hell.

Me and my friend have a dozen accas on both To Qualify and Straight Forecast, they're always the most fun markets as it makes you interested in the outcome of every game.

 

[Pighardia]

I've done loads of little qualify and to win accas as well. Some look pretty straight-forward tbh, but there are a few dodgy groups.

 

[Fulax]

I've got Colombia, Portugal, Russia, Bosnia, and Italy to qualify.

For tonight I've got: Brazil to win - Neymar anytime - under 3.5 goals.

 

[booyaka]

I'm going to use my £10 on brazil to wear yellow money (£30 assuming it wins!)to try and go the full tournament with overs/unders at tiny odds - see how far I get.

 

[Sui]

These are my selections, all in decimal odds because I find them much easier. Fractions are all fine and dandy, but I decimals are much easier to compare!

Dzeko Golden Boot £1 @ 51

Double - To Qualify from their group £9
Germany / Portugal @1.73
Spain / Holland @ 2.10

Treble - To Qualify from their group £3
Brazil / Cameroon @ 5
Spain / Holland @ 2.10
Argentina / Bosnia @ 1.91

7-Fold - To win their group £1
Belgium (1.73), Germany (1.53), Argentina (1.22), France (1.8), Italy (2.62), Ivory Coast (4.00), Brazil (1.17)

Argentina to beat Brazil in the final £2 @ 17.00

Finalists - Brazil and Argentina £2 @ 9.00

Semi-Finalists - Brazil, Spain, Argentina, Germany £2 @ 19.00

Golden Boot/Winner - Argentina/Aguero £2 @ 29.00

Opening Game Acca - £3

Brazil v Croatia 1.30
Chile v Australia 1.44
Mexico v Cameroon 2.25
Uruguay v Costa Rica 1.44
Ivory Coast v Japan 2.50
Argentina v Bosnia 1.40
Iran v Nigeria 2.20
Belgium v Algeria 1.44
Switzerland v Ecuador 2.50

Then I also have £25 on Argentina to win, and £25 on Aguero top scorer. Either time Argentina win, or Aguero scores £5 free bet back.

 

[doodah]

Yowser - which company are all those with?

 

[Sui]

All skybet apart from the 2 £25 ones which are with Betbright

 

[McBain]

Best price on Brazil to beat Croatia is 3/10 and Hills are offering evens for the first 50K bets, maximum bet £20.

No brainer.

 

[Russinating]

Agreed!

I've got my £5 free bet on Neymar to score first tonight.

Also got a ridiculous 22-fold acca on all the favourites (<1.8) to win for the first two weeks of the WC. £1 wins £4.6k. Plus all my other accas. Let the fun begin!

 

[FARGO]

Have been tempted to put a cheeky fiver on something but I know nothing about football, ha!

 

[MrJohnSherry]

My bets for the World Cup;

Neymar to score 2 or more v Crotia £4 @ 5.50
Rakitic to score anytime v Brazil £5 @ 7.5 - 1
Spain to win the World Cup @ 7.5 - 1
Neymar Top Goal Scorer £2 @ 10-1
Sturridge Top Goal Scorer £2 @ 51-1
Belgium, Portugal, Argentina, France, England, Colombia, Chile and Mexico to all qualify from groups, £2 pays £37.04

Any future betting will be dependent on if any of them come in

 

[Russinating]

Don't worry, a lot of the players seem to know nothing about football when it comes to playing sometimes.

They can and will void those bets if they notice you're abusing the offer. Are all your accounts verified? I am guessing you'll run into problems down the line, they're pretty strict.

 

[Adam]

£20 on Messi, Ronaldo, Suarez and Neymar to be stop scorers for their countries @ 16/1
£20 on Higuain to be top scorer @ 20/1 plus £5 back every time he scores

I used my bank account and then gave my mum , dad and sister £10 each to put the bets on for me. Each with a different IP and address. So i wont run into any problems.
