World Cup Betting Thread

Ha ha!

Had Matuidi, Mascherano, Pavard and Rojo to be carded @81.00 on SkyBet RAB. :)

Also got Banega, Matuidi, Umtiti and Rojo also @81.00

Still no France corners! :( Just need a dirty one from Umtiti now.

I’m a shit house. Had £50 and £100 singles lined up on France goals before 60 and 70mins and both times didn’t do it as goals flew in.

I was also too timid to hit those. :/
 
Blimey posters who follow my wierd betting methods. I was lumping those sums on the England-Belgium game. :wenger:
 
Fancy Messi not scoring and France no corners?? So close with several of the RABs. We go again in Uruguay/Portugal.
 
Lumped some of the winnings on a few more SkyBet RequestABets for the Uruguay/Portugal game. Hope I get lucky with the cards again but will probably be a 0-0 with low cards and corners now after the first game.
 
Spain O1.5 @ 1.75. What am I missing? Drugged Russian players? Putin handing over an envelope to the ref?

Thanks for the tip. 1.80 on bet365. I'm hopping right on that with a pretty big stake. Good odds as far as I can tell.

I’ve also gone £20 on that at 1.81 on betfair ex.
And £20 on a Spain Croatia double at 1.96/1 on willhill

Easy money surely :nervous:

Also got costa to score first and Spain win in 90 at 5/1 willhill
 
Won another passes bet today, this time Mascherano under, and comfortably. Narrowly won a Quintero over bet and comfortably won a Yoshida over bet the same day. I like these once you see the starting lineup, but obviously they're risky depending on which teams scores first. They're on Bet365 under player/specials. I think I'm gonna keep playing them.
 
Won a bit on griezmann to score first and France to win, am hoping Spain win and there's a clear winner between Denmark and Croatia, that'll bag me a few more pennies!!

I thought the same and backed the same but got lucky with a silly in-play correct score on FRance at 24/1 to save the day.

Nice. Feels amazing when an unlikely correct score bet comes through. I hit a 3-2 score with a $50 free bet once.
 
1. Costa to score, over 2 match goals, under 2 Russia goals, over 4 Spain corners, under 5 match cards, under 12 match corners @12.00 (Bet365)

2. Costa to have 3+ shots, Isco to have 2+ shots, Spain to win, under 12.5 corners, under 65.5 booking pts, over 1.5 goals, Ramos to be carded @24.00 (Coral)

3. Spain to win, under 5.5 goals, over 4.5 Spain corners, no red card in match, Spain to win either half, Spain to win match corners, Costa to score, Busquets to be carded @26.00 (Coral)

4. Spain to win, over 2.5 goals, under 40 booking pts, under 12.5 corners, Costa to score, Costa and Ramos to be carded @335.79 (Betfair)

5. Spain, Croatia, Brazil & Belgium @6.48 ((Betfair)

6. Colombia and France to reach semis @10.00 (SkyBet)

7. Kane and Falcao to score, Colombia OR England to win, under 5 goals, under 5 cards, under 13 corners @34.00 (Bet 365)

8. BTTS and Colombia OR England to win @3.75 (Betway)

9. England 2-1 @9.00 and Colombia 3-2@51.00 (Betway)

10. Spain to win, 2+ goals, 7+ corners, Costa 1+ shot on target, Ramos 1+ tackle @8.50 (William Hill)

Will do a few without Costa and in favour of Russia once lineups are confirmed.

Does anyone have Spain to win it outright? How confident are you now?
Click to expand...

I do. I think if they can muster through Russia and Croatia/Denmark - then I'll be fairly confident. They have a winning mentality instilled throughout their squad.

They haven't played great so far, but it's better to peak at the knock outs than in group stages.
 
Croatia and Belgium to win

Silly one: Spain Russia Draw
Croatia
Belgium -1.5 @16/1
 
Fiver quad on going for 135 pot.
Giving me 50 cash out now but need both Croatia and Denmark to score regardless of who wins.
I considered taking it out and placing some smaller bets on last match but don't think it's worth it.
 
I bet a fiver yesterday on Argentine and France scoring over 6.5 goals which made me some nice money, Spain are fecking me over though. How are they not beating Russia.
 
whatwha said:
Indeed :nervous: Russia's goal might be good in that regard. Spain can't just sit back and pass now.

I also thought that when Russia scored. However, I’ve got the Spain over 1.5 and Spain Croatia double so both bets down the drain if they don’t score now
 
I had another bet builder on this game.

Spain to win either half
Both teams to score
Kutepov to be booked
Under 5 goals
Under 6 cards
Under 12 corners

With kutepov booked already and both teams scored the hard parts are already in. Just need a Spain win without a mad flurry of corners.

Nice, hopefully that’s on its way!

What bookies do you use for that and do you build it or are the choices set?

Bet365 and you can build it yourself
 
Need Spain win and Costa goal for pre match 50/1 Request a bet.

Done Modric and Eriksen 2 or more shots on target at 16/1 with SkyBet. It came in the other day for Eriksen and Griezman at 14/1. Hoping both take a couple of free kick shots.
 
Feck Spain. Let me down for 420

Knew that was finishing as a draw. It was screaming draw with the way the 2 teams play. Cashed out my stake arouns 80 mins and now it's a free bet
 
Feel like lumping on Spain in extra time. 3/1

It’s annoying that they don’t even seem to have tried, Lineker also said it’s like both teams played for the draw.

My fault for lumping on them but still a kick in the balls. Hope they go out now too!

I'd say yes. Russia will start showing cracks.
 
Yeah I'm going to try and hold out till half time though as the odds should be much better.
