Double of Over 2.5 goals in the Netherlands match and over 1.5 goals in the Croatia match at evens.

 

[Ole90+3]

Going for a treble of:

Over 2.0 Goals - Spain v Chile
Japan to win or draw - Japan v Greene
Over 1.5 Goals - Colombia v Ivory Coast

@ 2.38

Also going to be betting on the total amount of cards to go over in the Spain game. Will wait to get a better line in play.

 

[Sarni]

Scrap that, I'm playing on.

Netherlands at 1/4, then laying Chile at 5/1 and Cameroon at similar price. Think it should be pretty safe. If it doesn't come off I'll definitely end my betting for this World Cup.

 

[Jayvin]

If you want a banker for today then throw 100 on Over 2 goal line on Chile vs Spain @1.30
easy 30 quid there

The last 4 games between the sides have all gone over 2.5, but I'm worried Spain will play conservatively and look to keep it tight after what happened against Netherlands.

 

[gaz1185]

said it earlier myself, I think it might be in the Croatia match... I think Cameroon are going to sneak a goal in and it'll be 1-1!!

Yeah that's the match that I'm worried about too, I was confident earlier that Croatia had enough to overcome Cameroon - especially after their performance against Mexico, but I can see it being a tight match and Cameroon grabbing a stuffy goal.

Like the look of that.

By laying do you basically mean Spain to win or draw? So Netherlands, Spain win/draw and Cameroon is your treble?

 

[DaniDan]

Australia 0 - 2 Netherlands
Combined with Spain 1 - 1 Chile
@ 52.5
2£

Nope, I'm laying Cameroon which means I don't expect them to win. It's playing it very safe, albeit at a high stake.

 

[thisISben]

Ambitious but I'm hopeful.

Holland - 2
Spain - 1
Croatia

10/1

 

[coolredwine]

Holland, Spain and Croatia @ 3.36

 

[Ady87]

Okay, all I can do is make informed decisions and go again. It has to change at some point! Going with the same idea...

£25 on Holland over 1.5 goals at 3/10.

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

I see sorry. I saw you put down 5/1 so I bemuzed as to how you managed to get 5/1 from Netherlands, Spain/Draw and Croatia/Draw. I assume the 5/1 was a typo?

 

[WR]

Spain to win
Over 2.5 goals in Holland's game

£10 returns £27

 

[gaz1185]

Ah feck it, no big bets today, just a cheeky pound on:

Spain to win BTTS
Croatia to win BTTS
Robben to score 2 or more

67.5-1

 

[Brwned]

He's backing Holland to win at 1/4 and (essentially) backing Chile and Cameroon not to win at ~ 1/5 each - they're all singles

 

[iBoss]

Costa and RVP both to score is 5/2. It's not bad (not amazing either) but I don't know if Costa is starting or not. Also, Pedro providing width might help with Chile looking weak in the air against Australia.

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

Reckon I'll be on Ramos to score anytime today vs Chile.

 

[Sarni]

He's backing Holland to win at 1/4 and (essentially) backing Chile and Cameroon not to win at ~ 1/5 each - they're all singles

Indeed. The total of that will be less than evens but should be pretty safe.

 

[thepolice123]

Holland over 1.5 goals! I fancy them to give Australia a drubbing.

 

[Cantonarightboot]

Right, think I am going to go with this little treble

Holland (-1) @ 4/6
Spain / Chile - Handicap Draw @ 12/5
Croatia @ 8/11

Works out at 10/1


Think it was mentioned above earlier:
Double

Holland & Croatia (-1), works out about 5/1.

 

[DannyDash]

The last 4 games between the sides have all gone over 2.5, but I'm worried Spain will play conservatively and look to keep it tight after what happened against Netherlands.

Yeah Ive contemplated they might not want to play an open dangerous game but at the same time Chile simply dont park the bus, I expect at least 2 goals minimum thus why over 2 goal line is safer for a bigger stake

 

[Sarni]

All in, playing a $110 bonus I got at work today on Netherlands -1 at 1.85!

Win or go home.

 

[ecantona7]

I've gone with on chile (win or draw), holland and croatia. +300 something

Got dutch with half time full time.
Also got dutch clean sheet.
And got croatia clean sheet.

Hopefully today I won't get fecked in the ass like yesterday.

 

[Bubz27]

And there's the over 1.5 in very early. Thank you.
Winnings on Spain to win now I think. Maybe cover with a draw no bet, just incase.

 

[Brwned]

Indeed. The total of that will be less than evens but should be pretty safe.

I still think Chile are in with a shout of winning it myself but then I thought that in the last World Cup too. This time without Villa and with a weaker midfield though...

I went the other way myself today. I've made a small profit so decided I'd push it a bit further on the "safe" bets:

at me.

 

[xeebok]

sign him up. Ive gone no goals to be scored after 78 mins so fecking hold on.

 

[iBoss]

Had Holland in a lot of my accumulators

Thank God for Depay. Now, C'mon Spain!

 

[Cantonarightboot]

another ridiculous ref decision costing me money, fecking cnut!!!! really sick of it at this stage... If I don't get a good win tonight now I'm done with this world cup!!!

 

[Cantonarightboot]

at me.

you can thank the ref for that!!

 

[dasty]

5 straight losses. Ghana, Belgium, Brazil, Russia and now Holland are pretty damn terrible at being convincing. This World Cup is quite a joke for betting. Great for watching but totally abysmal for betting. Betting my last amount of money on Croatia to win and if I lose it then I'm done with this World Cup.

 

[Cpt Negative]

Gone for BTTS in 8pm and Croatia to won

 

[Cantonarightboot]

Spain / Chile - Handicap draw
Croatia to win

FFS, Something win!!!

 

[Jagga7]

Bet365 has really been struggling with the World Cup traffic

 

[Sarni]

you can thank the ref for that!!

Funny thing is I wanted to play Netherlands at 1.25 and opted for -1 because I thought odds were great. Third time in a row I did that and ended up losing money. Terrible World Cup betting wise, just dropped my bonus.

 

[Brwned]

Right lads I need your advice here, shall I cash out for an £80 profit or hold out for £160? All I need is one goal from Spain. I'll wait a bit to see how they react after half time but I'm not confident of Spain scoring here...

Tell me about it, I've Spain for the Handicap draw here so that is as good as gone now. Slim to no chance now of them coming back and scoring three!!

 

[Cantonarightboot]

Utterly fecked off at this stage with betting on this world cup!!

 

[coolredwine]

feck this. 2 days in a row. I'm done!

no point cashing in, stick 20 on no more goals.
