I put a few on through Betfair, Japan, Paraguay and Honda to score. But damn game finished 0-0. The results only counting for the first 90 minutes really do throw things off during a knockout game.
Luckily put £2 on Paraguay to win penalties which left me with an earth shattering £7.54.
I put some on Paraguay qualifying too. Used the money from that on random cheap bets on the Spain game, guarantee none will happen;
Spain/Portugal @ 33/1 - £1
Portugal/Spain @ 22/1 - £1
Spain 3 - 1 Portugal @ 18/1 - £0.50
Spain 3 - 2 Portugal @ 33/1 - £0.50
Spain 3 - 3 Portugal @ 80/1 - £0.50
Spain 2 - 3 Portugal @ 40/1 - £0.50
Spain to win both halves @ 5/1 - £1
Watch it be 0-0 or 1-0/0-1.
Got 3x£10 bets on William Hill now. What to bet them on.
Yeah i won one of those yesterday betting on Brazil and Dutch to win .
Have Spain(tonight), Argies, Uruguay in the last 8 to win £10 which leaves me wit one free £10left but they only last a week.
Not sure if anyone has found this yet but here's a list of free bets you can use and what bookmakers are offering.

Hopefully not.
I'm thinking about Spain within normal time. I'm tempted to put a bob on Torres scoring, he's looked crap so far but has got to start banging them in at some point. Ronaldo and Mereilles(sp) I'm hovering about as well.
£74 for the Spain win. Didn't punt big as the game was too close. Still, got all my shopping for free this week as I'm still up from my original input capital.
Have £200 on Brazil to do the Dutch. Let's see if Kaka and his boys can do enough to buy papa a new 5970

Just bagged my second accumulator, won £177.84 from £25 stake, tbh I honestly thought I wasn't gonna get this one, it just seemed too easy, picking all the favs n' all.
I believe I earned a free £25 bet, not sure what to stick it on, was thinking maybe Germany to qualify for Semi's or Klose to score.
Well im done with my betting...made a pretty healthy profit from my £100 outlay on betfair...ill just say its £2k plus ive ended up with after the Spain game....about the same amount i made last time on the WC 4 yrs ago.
Not bad for about 2 weeks of betting really...got screwed a few times but luckily got the results that counted.
Remember kids...if you want to win big then bet big
...but then you will also lose big if you bet big...vicious circle.
But before i get too greedy im calling it quits...ive already stuck £100 down on Brazil at the start of the WC to win through ladbrokes...got odds of 9/4 which arent great but if they win then ill make a bit of money through that...

i got odds of 6/1 before the world cup started, you got majorly screwed there, in fact i dont believe you got those odds they are far too poor its like 2/1, i would re-check the bet
Nice little start fella and thanks
Good for you
...but ive made more than enough on betfair so im not worried if i got screwed or not...not really bothered if i make any money on that bet as i did it before i started my betfair saga.Check the website
....those are the odds now for Brazil to win...doesnt bother me if you believe me or not really...ive got nothing to prove to someone i dont know.

Check the website
those are the odds now, after they have practically got through to the final, in no way were those the odds before the cup started, spain were the favourites at 4 to 1. brazil were 6 to 1. england were 8 to 1 (mainly due to a lot of people betting on them)
obviously as the teams progressed further the odds dropped.
in fact brazil are now 3.5 to 1 which means you got seriously screwed as you get better odds now than when the cup started
I'll have to check my betting slip...whereever it is at the moment, knowing my luck ive probably lost it
but your probably right...it was most likely 6 to 1 or something like that...apologies as im pretty tired...been up since 6am working like a slave at work.

thats all i was saying that those odds simply cannot be correct, because of how out of line they are from what i got at william hill.
sure there can be a little different, but not double the difference. that slip is worth around £600 if it comes through so i would try and find it lol.
did you do a straight bet or each way?
i done £50 (25 each way)
Straight bet
...might as well keep it simple i say....yeh need to find it..probably in my wallet hiding away i imagine.#BTW Psycho are you up or down so far in your betting??
