Won my first bet in a while, under 2.5.
Ideas for bets on Russia vs Croatia?

Went for a "Build-a-bet" that actually came in.
England to win, Over 1.5 goals, Over 1.5 England corners in second half, Over 1.5 cards.
Thank god for that bit of beef between Maguire and Guidetti.
Think I'll go again for the Russia-Croatia game - will probably leave out the result though. I really can't tell which way it'll go.

Over 3.5 cards in the Russia - Croatia game. Fancy it to get tasty. Both have a lot of players with potential suspensions if they get a yellow though so they may be more careful... But that can lead to the other players having to cover and make more rash tackles. Also if one is losing, some players won't care about getting suspended if they lose their cool.
BTTS in first half @8.00
Croatia or draw + over 1.5 match goals @1.90
Croatia or draw + over 1.5 match goals @1.90

Nice .
Played it a bit safer today after losing in Brazil yesterday
England and Croatia to qualify

Thanks. About time things went my way.
Don't want to get carried away but just had a little punt on England to win the next 14 World Cups.
Croatia to win seems really enticing at 3.65 even though I want England to win.
£105 up after yesterday...
God bless build a bet...
Over 6 corners, over 3 goal kicks each, under 1 goal in first 10 minutes, over 1.5 goals in the match...then a team to either win or qualify...

that in 90 mins?
think Croatia might go for it - last thing they need is more extra time
Damn it Russia, why did you have to be so clean in the 90 minutes?
Yup it's 90 minutes and you're right about extra time although they may fancy themselves in the penalties.
Fell asleep last night during the game thus no bets made.
Any tips for the semi finals? It gets really tricky here.

I think Belgium to win and BTTS multi is the way to go for the first semi final.
Been following this forum/tread for a while, some cool storys!
Made 1k yesterday from:
France to win 1-0/2-0/2-1
Over 2.5 goals Brazil/Belgium
England to win 1-0/2-0/2-1
Croatia/Russia draw - 1-1/2-2/3-3
£18 quid on combined 60/1

Well considering each betting company use different terminology and we’re using real money here people need clarification. Infact William Hill seem to use “two or more” and “over 1” interchangeably.Yeah people like yoa are why they have to use over 1.5 goals
How can you add different exact results in the same combo? When I do it I need to bet in each one. I´m in Bet365.

It's called correct score group betting on skybet. Not sure if other sites have a similar thing or not.
In general i've been quite poor this world cup. Very irresponsible which isn't normal for me and betting, dissapointed in myself.
There was some good value to be had in many games also.

Wonder if bet365 gives you a smaller free bet if you always place the pre-match bet on the safest possible option like over 0.5 goals @1.03 or something.
I've been very active on bet365 during the WC and they're still just giving me a $5 free bet for the Croatia vs England game.

That's because they mean the same thing!
Yeah but you don’t want to be sticking something on a bet that you’re not 100% sure about. Absolutely nothing wrong with being completely clear about something
I understand what you're saying. I often think terms and conditions for various offers are very confusing/contradictory when they don't need to be.
Nope, my mate follows my tactic of bet builder as a qualifying bet, same stakes, and copies me (and me him) with our betting...basically, we bet the same bets, same stakes all the time, but I get £25, he gets £10...Wonder if bet365 gives you a smaller free bet if you always place the pre-match bet on the safest possible option like over 0.5 goals @1.03 or something.

hang on, you've had a free bet offer for Wednesdays game already? I've had nowt yet...Wonder if bet365 gives you a smaller free bet if you always place the pre-match bet on the safest possible option like over 0.5 goals @1.03 or something.

Any bets for tomorrow?
Possibly both teams to score @1.80
Over 2.5 is still at evens. Too low for me. I can sense it being a scoring game but you never know, it's a semi final and teams may be cautious.
I'd wait for the line ups and check how the teams are playing. Might do something in game.

I fancy BTTS tonight.
If Lukaku is going to face Hernandez on the right wing, he's going to overpower him all the time and break through. Depends where he's playing though hence why I'll wait for the lineups
Any bet builder recommendation for today?
Going for Verthongen to get booked @3.75
Looking at the lineups, if I wasn't a coward, I'd bet on a France win. Gonna check the first 10 minutes of gameplay first then decide.
Finally doing a small betting for France/BTTS Yes @5.50
Right at the death but he obliged for you
Got to love him
. Was sure that one was lost.Got a nice surprise that my Lukuku to Belgium team scorer has paid out. I was surprised considering the 3rd / 4th place game hasn't been played yet.
That is surprising. I'm sure I've lost out in the past due to someone scoring in the third place game. Nice work though! I'm hoping my e/w bet on him to be top scorer overall includes the third place game. Pretty sure they normally do.
On my usual Bet365 qualifying bet tonight...going for my 4th consecutive qualifying bet win tonight...
Over 1.5 goals
Over 6.5 corners
over 3.5 goal kicks each
under 0.5 goals in first 10 minutes
England to qualify
£25 returns £93.75.
Then 2-1 in play...

Croatia up to 3.90 to win now. That seems a little high.
