World Cup Forum Game

I post it more as a "this is how much you have left to spend" between matches.

 

[Wol]

Makes sense if you consider that when you place a bet, you dont get to keep the money up until the game starts....!

Go England, Go America. Both be as good as each other and get a draw!

 

[BiG D]

A confident English team is ultimately let down by its goaltender, and we've got a draw. This means big winnings for Wol, Haven, Panda and Trax. This puts all of them back in the race. Here are the standings after day two:

Wol			347
Traxata			310.20
Haven			150
Waterproofbob		136
Tetsuo			103.70
Panda With Issues	100
Nanor			47.20
killer			0
thatbloke		-50

 

[Nanor]

Why do I only have 47.20 after betting all for Argentina to win?

 

[BiG D]

You put e$50 on Argentina (which is all you had.) After that win you had 72.20. e$25 on England leaves you with e$47.20

 

[Wol]

Side note: I'm liking the mini summaries of each day D. Good to see

Should we generally expect to see odds appear on here by each morning? Can you also, if its not too much of a pain, stick the match times on along with the odds? Would save me having to crossref it with wikipedia each time.

 

[BiG D]

Yeah, I'll get the odds up before I go to bed which should be plenty of time in most cases.

I HAD the match times on it at one point, but I must have copied over it or something. I'll add them back for tomorrow.

EDIT: Sure enough I had the times in the odds in the first post, but not in the day's post.

 

[thatbloke]

what a load of utter shite England were...

Almost makes me sick

 

[Panda with issues...]

Sickening thing is, Green is still the best keeper in the squad. Predict another lacklustre draw from England followed by a desperate win to scrape through the group stages. Still deciding where to place my money tomorrow, after gambling my way out of ePoverty.

 

[Traxata]

Algeria vs. Slovenia - 13 Jun 1:30pm
Serbia vs. Ghana - 13 Jun 4:00pm

* All times are South Africa Time

I'm going to go for 1st draw, 25
2nd win serbia 25
3rd draw germany 50


(I'm not really looking at the betting odds here )

 

[Nanor]

e$All on Serbia to win match 2.
e$All and a e$50 loan on Germany to win match 3.

 

[BiG D]

The odds for Sunday's matches:

Match One (11:30GMT)
Algeria Win	23/10
Draw		23/10
Slovenia Win	6/5

Match Two (14:00GMT)
Serbia Win	6/5
Draw		23/10
Ghana Win	23/10

Match Three (18:30GMT)
Germany Win	1/2

Australia Win	6/1

 

[thatbloke]

e$50 on an Algeria win. Assuming I win that bet and have some e$ left, e$50 on Serbia to win.

Then, again assuming I have anything left, e$all on a Germany win.

 

[Haven]

150 on Serbia for a win please.

 

[Wol]

50% slovenia
50% serbia
75% germany

ta

 

[Tetsuo_Shima]

e$25 on Algeria to win

e$25 on Serbia to win

e$50 on Germany to win

 

[Panda with issues...]

e$50 on a Slovenia win.

e$50 on a Serbia Ghana draw.

loan$50 on a germany Win

 

[Ki!ler-Mk1]

Loan 50 on Serbia to win, if they win then e$10 on germany to win.

Depending on when the loan is paid back, i'd like 30 more on germany.

 

[thatbloke]

oh man I got so owned :/

 

[Traxata]

I'm going to go for 1st draw, 25
2nd win serbia 25
3rd draw germany 50


(I'm not really looking at the betting odds here )

I'll add to that last one to an all out germany win (what ever I have left afterwards but keeping the e$50 on the draw first)
