Rugby World Cup 2011 Challenge

[ExodusNZ]

Hey

RWC Challenge! (IF anyone even follows Rugby here!)

Ill keep stats on any picks made. And personally use this thread to post my own RWC picks.

Please use the following format when betting.

3rd Sept

Eels -1.5 : Risking 3 Units @ 1.9

Tigers/Tigers : Risking 2 Units @ 1.52

Warriors -6.5 : Risking 3 Units @ 1.85

All bets made on TAB.co.nz

Good luck!!

P.S GO THE ALL BLACKS

 

[ExodusNZ]

Ill start off with a 4 Option Multi / Parlay Bet

1) Winner of Pool A - New Zealand
2) Winner of Pool B - England
3) Winner of Pool C - Australia
4) Winner of Pool D - South Africa

Risking 4 Units @ $2.22 (TAB NZ)

England and South Africa will bring their A games to the RWC and should clean up in their pools



Tonga +65.5 : Risking 2 Units @ 1.909 (Pinnacle)

Japan +46.5 : Risking 4 Units @ 1.885 (Pinnacle)

Fiji -30.5 : Risking 2 Units @ 1.901 (Pinnacle)

 

[ExodusNZ]

Tonga +65.5 : Risking 2 Units @ 1.909 (Pinnacle) :: WIN

Japan +46.5 : Risking 4 Units @ 1.885 (Pinnacle) :: WIN

Fiji -30.5 : Risking 2 Units @ 1.901 (Pinnacle) :: LOSE

YTD 2-1 : +3.358 Units


ALSO:

Rather than bet for the All Blacks to win the RWC (@ $1.65 = $65 Profit) - I thought Id start a rolling All Blacks bet instead and try to make some value out of them winning the World Cup (So basically ill only bet Head to Head options in the later stage of the tournament - And a few other options in pool play against the weak teams) - Basically I stand to lose $100. And make alot more than $65 if the All Blacks win the tournament.


I was not going to post this on the forum so did not post the first bet.



Bet was:


$100 @ $1.17 - NZ to score first



New AB's Total $117


I have no reason to lie about the bet but can post a screenshot of the bet if needed

Australia -11 : Risking 8 Units @ 1.90 (Bet 365)
Went a bit crazy here with Australia. Stand to lose more than half of my RWC profit (which I made over the last 7 pool games). Ireland will start strong, especially after seeing the game against Italy, but see Australia overcoming/countering this. Ireland didn't exactly put the USA team to bed.

Tonga -6 : Risking 4.4 Units @ 1.90 (Bet 365)
Expecting Tonga to come out firing against a Canadian team who haven't gotten over their first game jitters yet.

Georgia +19.5 : Risking 4 Units @ 1.87 (Pinnacle)
Missed out of Georgia +22.5 - Still should be a solid play


Rolling ABs bet.

Bet 1. All Blacks to score first : $100 @ 1.17 :: WIN [New Total $117]
Bet 2. All Blacks Win : $117 @ 1.01

Loving the Tonga -6 @1.90. Should be a sure bet. No Digby Ioane now for Australia will make that game interesting but should still be able to get up by 12 over Ireland no problem

 

[ExodusNZ]

Yea bad luck for my bet, but good for the AB's if we meet Aussie - Ioane always scores against us!!

 

[ExodusNZ]

Sorry for the confusion - I like this play, but made 3 bets on the same selection - Would have been nice to have all units on +33.5

Namibia +30 : Risking 1 Unit @ 2.00 (Bet 365)
Namibia +31.5 : Risking 2 Units @ 1.87 (TAB NZ)
Namibia +33.5: Risking 1 Unit @ 1.87 (TAB NZ)

Japan +56.5 : Risking 3 Units @ 1.87 (TAB NZ)

 

[ExodusNZ]

A few decent changes to the Tongan team, players going back to their preferred positions etc - Should help them beat Canada

 

[ExodusNZ]

Tonga -6 :R isking 4.4 Units @ 1.90 (Bet 365) :: LOSE
Disappointing Tongan team, now they are basically out of the world cup!

Namibia +30 : Risking 1 Unit @ 2.00 (Bet 365) :: LOSE
Namibia +31.5 : Risking 2 Units @ 1.87 (TAB NZ) :: LOSE
Namibia +33.5: Risking 1 Unit @ 1.87 (TAB NZ) :: LOSE


Georgia +19.5 : Risking 4 Units @ 1.87 (Pinnacle) :: WIN

I made another bet at half time for Georgia +15.5 @ $2.00 (TAB NZ) - But as it was not posted it will not count towards the stats - No point lying/making up stats!
