i had £20 on at 2.58
then seperate bet £50 at 2/1

so about £151.60 back then minus the £70 stake so just a little over £80 (betfair take little bit of commission)

Your really confusing me, and making my very synical.

Quite a unregular bet to win on.
Also 2.58 x 20 is only £30, decimal bets are different to odds betting. Plus 50 x 2/1 is £100
And they dont take your stake they give it back, so you would have won £130 with the £70 back. ??????????????????'
:confused:

I assume he means 2.0 as opposed to 2/1.

€50 stake @ 2.0 returns €100 hence €50 profit.
€20 stake @ 2.58 returns €51.60 hence €81.60 profit

Total stake €70
Total profit €81.60

Just like he said :eek:

Lost £20 thanks to Mexico. Gah!

Right, I'm going all out on Italy to beat the USA tomorrow. I can see Italy going all out for the win, especially if they are to try and avoid Brazil in the second round.

£50 @ 1.44 = £72.22

come on, or this is me nearly clean out:D

I only put £5 on this at 2.98

Thinking to have czech to win there game but not sure yet!
 
Ghana played well against a very good Italian side, Michael Essien looked superb and came very close to scoring. Compared to other world cups this one has went to form except for a few games. Not good for those of us who look for value bets....... :( , though Ghana @ circa 6/1 on Betfair...............hmmmm, maybe one to leave alone
 
Just been on paddy power site and they have a poll running: :D
