The Greatest World Cup Thread, Ever

[lastguyoffthabench]

I think tou should just take Brazil money line to be safe for that parlay. If u like the spread, put a single on it

My other smaller parlay is Brazil ml, ivory coast pk, Italy pk, France -1.5, Argentina at 13 to 1... Plan on going 3-1 final score Brazil prop bet.

Also. Draw no bet is the way to go... It is essentially a spread bet.. In close games, you are paying more but is well worth it... Example. Ivory coast is +160 to win but draw/win -125... Best to take ivory coast on the draw/win

Special one... Know of a friend that was possibly at the Ireland training session today, still feel like Portugal -142 to win iis solid value.

Also group d team to win it all pays 8 to 1. Worth a shot

my book has something called Draw No Bet what does that mean??

Essentially it's just like a pick em...it's a push if the game ends in regulation as a draw.

What does that even mean?

I'm probably done with the friendlies, something would have to Intrigue me to post a play on that game tomorrow.

Bet the world cup last time and did fairly well with it, we had a TV in my office at my financial firm and we all put wagers on the games and had a hell of a time, we had a guy who knew soccer pretty well so it made it fun

I forget though, right now the line for braz/croatia is Odds cro +1150 brazil -315 draw +415

If this goes to extra minutes does the ML count?

if there is a draw and you have brazil ML its a loss right?

hope I was able to answer your questions in the post above. Betting the draw can be profitable in the knockout stages. always a few games where both teams can't be separated within the 90 minutes.

Most definitely there will be quite a few draws in the group stages as well. My suggestion however is to always look at the spreads, a lot of the time you can find good value in the underdog to win or draw, and in that case you have 2 scenarios covered you can cash In on, rather than the one option if you took the ML for the draw

I believe that around 27% of group stage matches end in a draw in the last 8-9 World Cups.

What book were this placed at? Thanks...

Here we go!!!

Thursday 6/12

Brazil -1.5 -110 (2 units)

I waited too long to take this, I could have had it at the +110 yesterday. I only see the line movement saying 1 thing....please bet on Croatia!!! Look, the only value is in a win. There's a couple guys I look at that make picks that think the line movement dictates an outcome, maybe it could? In this game however, I am not worried.

Brazil field the best team they have available tonight with Neymar, Fred, and Hulk in attack, a true wall in the back with Thiago Silva and two experienced wing backs with Dani Alves and one of my personal favorites...Marcelo. I tip Marcelo to score in this game by the way, but at moment my book is only offering the forwards.

Croatia is stacked as well with two exceptional midfielders in Modric and Rakitic, but will be missing a huge piece in Mario Mandzukic, who is unavailable through suspension for this game. I tip Croatia to move through the group, but tonight they bow down to Brazil. Brazil get a healthy 2 goal win through the advantages of playing at home as the crowd will push them on to win by 2 for the opening game.

ps

i just bought Fabergas this morning by the way, thanks barca

all bets are placed at 5dimes for the tournament

 

[thewiscokid]

Just tracked them down... Thanks and BOL in the coming weeks.

 

[Donkwin47]

Special one.. I see you listed 2 units for Brazil. All your previous plays had no units. Are you typically a flat bettor with rare 2 unit plays? Or will you be playing World Cup games on something like a 1-5 unit scale?

BOL!

 

[TheSpecialOne]

Playing on a scale. Friendlies were all flat, correct
