Erm. Brazil, pls.
Get in, put £20 on England -0.5 for £135 (cashed out for 130). Literally only put it on because I was losing the will to live watching the game and wanted some interest towards the end 
glad to see others winning from that as well. Going to put a small amount on BTTS at HT in the Bolivia game if it's 0-0, hopefully be around 2/1.

He's playing well and had a couple of chances well saved.
Cheers, mate. I'll withdraw a bit of profit and go for it.
Nice win, I wouldn't risk much on a FGS though mate. Good luck if you back it though.
Anyone else shit their pants when B365 just gave Bolivia a goal by mistake?
The opposite
I'd just got on BTTS at 12/5 then clicked back on the tab and it flashed up with goal, although to be fair I saw straight away it also had '0-0 Half-Time Score' so presumed it was an error/disallowed.0-0. Should have took the £180 cash out.
I'm less pissed about that and more pissed I've got to start from scratch tomorrow

I think I'm not going to touch South American qualifiers tonight. Basically all those teams playing still have the chance to qualify, even Paraguay and Ecuador who are quite a bit behind could get fifth place and subsequent playoff against Syria or Australia. I think Argentina are going to struggle and Chile are definitely going to find it very hard to break down Ecuador. On paper Argentina, Chile and Colombia should win comfortably but it's never that easy.
Hockey season as started! Gone for Wild and Rangers and paired this with Argentina and Chile @4.06
Gone for a Chile/Argentina double @1.62
Colombia should also win, but Paraguay can be a tough nut to crack.

Bloody bastard...Aussie, now Argie...what a painful day...should stick to Scotland and Poland...fecckkkk
Paraguay cost me,bloody feckers..
You're crazy!
FFS I thought I had a 4 fold on but I forgot that on Betfair you need to click again to confirm it. I was so used to Bet365 where once you click "place bet" it's done that I didn't even realise.
It was over 1.5 goals in the England, Germany, and Scotland games and over 2.5 goals in the Norway match at odds of around 2.5 and two of those have already come in
Lucky you!
Very tempted by Turkey tonight. I would prefer it if Iceland win but it's very tough to play in Turkey, they badly need a win to still have a chance of qualifying and they have actually been fairly decent in these qualifiers. At 1.95 it's a very good price but I will probably foolishly skip it like I went with Norway -2.5 instead of -3.5 or even -4.5 as my gut feeling was telling me last night.

I really need to better understand these .5 handicaps as there seems to be some extra value in it but I fear the unknown! I'll have a look later.
For now, £10 on The CSKA Sofia friendly under 3.5 goals. Added in a £5 B365 bonus so net returns are £18.57. Will be playing it safe today and trying to rebuild the pot. Bit of a bizarre game as CSKA went from 1/3 to 1/5 for no reason, no red card or anything, opponents went to 10/1 then went 0-1 up a second later!
I was hoping to wake up to a winner but only 1 outta the 4teams won. What a terrible bet!Turkey @-0.25...before that Madura United @-0.25 away to Semen Padang in Indonesia League.
Still pissed off at Argentina.
What was the score? Refusing to check scores in case Uruguay won
Both games finished 0-0.
Sounds like a thrilling night of SA qualifiers!
Lost first bet. Won the next on unders, up to £17. On unders in a Russian game for £26.
That came in. Stuck £26 on Under 4.5 in the Molde 2 game, cashed out for £39.91.
After my huge luck yesterday I think I can stick a 100 PLN on something slightly more risky:
Moldova +2.5
Albania +3.5
Croatia -1.5
Kosovo/Ukraine BTTS
Turkey
Israel
Italy -2.5
Austria or draw
100 PLN could return 6548 PLN.

Tempted to go for Georgia +1.0 handicap @ 1.5.
Over 0.5 first half goals in the Georgia - Wales game @1.80
Kosovo/Ukraine BTTS is great value IMO. Kosovo scored against Iceland and Turkey who are at Ukraine's level and conceded in all their games against top teams from their group too.
Wales amd Georgia under 2.5 , ireland moldova under 3.5 double. Not expecting much action in these two games.
bet365 keep getting my hopes up by repeatedly suspending the market. Cnuts.
I went for:
Spain -2
Italy -2
Ireland -1
Croatia -1
Turkey -1
@ 20/1
First time dabbling in the handicap market. Usually do fairly well in goal scorer market.

That'll have been down to the scout's internet connection dropping due to bad connection in Georgia
It sucks that Bet365 doesn't offer parlay bonuses when you win in football.... they do for NHL, NBA and the rest of the north american sports.
Three games to keep an eye-on in-play for BTTS: Fortuna Sittard v NEC, FC Oss v Go Ahead Eagles, Almere City v MVV. None are worth backing at present odds but hopefully a few shots + no early goal then I'll jump on.
Edit: And a FHG for Ajax Reserves v FC Utrecht (...and the bastards just scored as soon as I put this so no chance to get on at reasonable odds, hopefully more luck in the others)
Edit 2: Nope, three early goals in four of the games I was eyeing

Done Italy -2,2.5 @ 1.9 and also Houston Astros 1,5 @2.4
Ok, over 0.5 FHG at PSV Reserves at 6/5
I've got to check this but I've landed a few accas that conform with those criteria and not seen a bonus unless I'm missing something or need to opt in?
