Lay of Algeria and over 1.5 goals for first game today.

I've gone for a treble of Slovenia, Serbia and Germany, and a single on Novakovic AGS.

I'll probably be putting more on after the first match... probably.

[Sirloin]

If there is a goal here I can see a few going in, but Algeria looking pretty good now, not sure if I should trade out for a couple of quid profit now and just let the goals bet ride.

[Sirloin]

Well glad I didn't trade out, ended up about equal from the lay and the lost goals bet. Lay of Ghana and over 1.5 for the second one now I think.

[dogsout]

I think you'll be safe there, Sirloin. I fancy Serbia to win and might have a dabble on the scorecast with 2-0 and/or 2-1.

[Guest]

I've gone for the Serbs -1 Handicap

edit: Before I found out that Serbia have lost to New Zealand recently!!!

[DjSatansfur3h]

I went for Serbia 2-1

[dogsout]

Before I found out that Serbia have lost to New Zealand recently!!!

They cost me a bomb that day. Let's hope we can avoid a repeat performance.

[DjSatansfur3h]

I only stuck on a quid. Im the ultimate mug punter, and ive lost all my bets since the WC began

Thank god ive got some free bets on Ladbrokes

[El Pibe]

I am on a terrible run! Have gone for Zigic to score and also Serbia to score first.

[dogsout]

Backed Ghana at 3/1 just after the red card. If they can hang on then I've made back what I've lost and can start from scratch with the Germany game.

[Sirloin]

Well, lay of Australia and over 1.5 seems to be the way forward...

But going to have a think about it after that shower of shit.

[DjSatansfur3h]

Dunno wether its worth putting one on for Germany. Just a plain win will have shit odds.

[Sirloin]

1.6ish, so no bad. Odds to lay Australia are horrible, so tempted to just go on over 2.5 goals, as there must be a decent game eventually, and Germany are OK.

[AlwaysBeClosing]

All my bets have messed up too.. last thing I have is Netherlands, Italy, Brazil and German wins, only put a quid on and they didn't tell me the overall payout. Grr Toteshit.

So whats the returns back on that. You stick a fiver on you're going to get £5.60 back?

1.6 is 8/13. So a fiver on would bring you £3 plus your £5.

[DjSatansfur3h]

Sorry to sound thick, its all relatively new to me.

[Sirloin]

Just multiply your fiver by the odds, so 5 x 1.6. I mostly bet on stuff that is 1.06, so 1.6 for me is massive

[DjSatansfur3h]

Stuck a free fiver on Germany to win then. They'd bloody better.

Stuck a quid each on Klose/Podolski/Sweinsteiger to score.

[hoot]

Stuck £1 on Germany to win 1:0 at 6/1. Not won sod all yet...

[DeadRussian]

I was a bit keen betting on Slovenia to win 3-0 and Serbia to beat Ghana 3-0. Bollocks. After a good pre-World Cup, I've won fuck all so far. Most my bets are on Top Scorers, Winners, etc..., so hopefully I'll see some pay off at the end.

I think I'll pass on the Germany vs. Australia game. I'll only balls it up. Schweinsteiger at 10-1 to score first ain't bad though.

[AlwaysBeClosing]

£3 on over 11 corners, £1 on 2-0 Germany, £1 on under 2.5 goals. Bored..

[El Pibe]

11/1 for Australia to win to nil...tempting

[Duke]

£5 on Germany to win 5-0, 66-1. Someone has to start playing well.

[Sirloin]

Went on over 2.5, so a decent start

[hoot]

Stuck £1 on Germany to win 1:0 at 6/1. Not won sod all yet...

[Dr Slotter]

Went on over 2.5, so a decent start

And I went on under 2.5... fortunately after the start I bought it back after about 10 minutes. A whole £1.00 if the Germans fail to pop another past the 10 Aussies, and back where I started if they don't. Already got £1.04 in the bag from a Sirloin style lay of 0-0

[Sirloin]

Score another goal damn you!

[Undefeated]

There you go!
