20 Bets for the World Cup

[flapjack]

Here's what I'm looking at and most likely will do, just a matter of the $'s on each game:

First games of 1st round:
1) Parlay Germ ML/Swed ML/Port ML 100 to win 133.
2) Germany -1 1/2 -125
3) Sweden -1 1/2 -115
4) Sweden O 2 1/2 -120
5) Serbia +1/2 -115
6) Serbia U 2 1/2 -150
7) Serbia Draw +225 parlayed w/U 2 1/2.
8) Iran +1 -130
9) Portugal -1 -155
10) S Korea ML +120
11) Swiss +1/2 +135
12) Swiss U 2 1/2 -160
13) Swiss Draw parlayed w/ U 2 1/2
14) Ukraine +1/2 +105
15) Ukraine U 2 1/2 -145
16) Tunisia -1/2 -110
Group winners:
17) Iran to win Group +1500
18) Portugal to win Group -125 - maybe just enough to break even w/ #17 above.
19) Swiss to win Group +350
20) Germany to win Group -250

I like them all, except 11, 12, 13 and 19...I think France comes to play in this tournament and will beat Switzerland rather easily in the first game, despite their recent struggles/draws against the neighbors...

 

[flapjack]

I think France is dangerous, but they are too conservative and defensive so I like the Swiss getting a 1/2 goal. I think both teams will be confident of moving onto the next round with a draw in first game against each other, so I'm hoping for a 0-0 or 1-1 draw then its a toss up who will win the group between the 2.

 

[Eugenius7]

I think you will see a more attacking France in this tournament, but I see your point...good luck flapjack!!!

 

[moe777]

gl flap....im with eugenious on the swiss.im high on france also,not to crazy about the swiss.

 

[flapjack]

Germany -1.5 is looking worse and worse. Ballack is reportedly out for the 1st game and I hear that Costa Rica may throw out an extra full back and play all out defense and going for a draw or at least a close loss that would keep them in the mix (rumor only).

Also adding the following top goal scorers to the wager I already made on Klose:

Klose 100 to win 2000
Shev. 15 to win 270
Pauletta 15 to win 375
Koller 15 to win $675

Flapjack.
Get out of the impossible to handicap soccer world and get on board with some WNBA.

Come join the darkside.
The ho's are cash cows.LA SPARKS(-12.5)

MAN OF THE MATCH
LARSSON(Sweden)(+400) 50/200

Small wager on the the Trhreezee Does it for Larsson(16-1) 10/160.

Also Sweden/TT OVER 2.5
Sweden should cover this by themselves.

 

[flapjack]

-126 to date. Watching the US get killed right now + a negative balance = not a good Monday morning.

 

[flapjack]

Adding:

Italy ML 50 to win 27
Italy -1 50 to win 67

 

[flapjack]

Turning things around +206.

Time to reload and put in one last list of bets before I take off for Germany.

A few for tomorrow:

ECUADOR -?-135 $50.00 $37.00

ENGLAND u3?-165 $124.00 $75.00

6-TEAM PARLAY 06/15 [149] ECUADOR -?-135
ECUADOR o2?+105
ENGLAND u3?-165
ENGLAND ML -1050
PARAGUAY +?-105
SWEDEN u2?-145

[flapjack]

Adding
ENGLAND -2-130 $65.00 $50.00
ENGLAND -1 1/2 -180 $50 $27

Can't see T&T scoring - If England gets the 18 shots Sweden got against them, this won't end up 0-0. Just hope England stops at 2 or 3 goals!

 

[flapjack]

6 Teamer still pending - 4 down, 2 to go.

New total: +345

Adding the following. I think it'll be a hard fought game, both will be cautious. I see low scoring, I think Paraguay is under rated, Sweden's strikers seem to be out of form and out of sync. I think Paragauy gets a 1-0 win or its a low scoring draw:

SWEDEN u2?-145 $145.00 $100.00

PARAGUAY +?-105 $53.00 $50.00

PARAGUAY ML +355 $20 $71

 

[flapjack]

God, what a kick in the nuts! Losing a 6 team parlay in the 89th minute of the last game!

Updated total: +347

Love the way the Dutch are playing. I think we'll see some goals in that game.


NETHERLANDS o2?+105 $50.00 $52.00

[flapjack]

Back from Germany. What a friggin time!

If my math is right, I'm sitting at +470. Still got some prop bets out there pending. Hopefully Klose can keep putting it in the net and be a little more selfish than he was last game.

I'm really likeing the over in Argentina-Germany. I just cant see how that German defense can keep Argentina outta the goal. Also, I dont see anybody stopping Germany from scoring the way they've been playing.

 

[flapjack]

Love both O/U's tomorrow. Loading up on the Arg & Germ scoring early and often. Can't see how this can possibley go under 2 goals. Recent history versus each other and even more recent history in the WC suggests that this will fly past 2 goals and most likely the way Germany has been attacking from the get go, it will happen earlier rather than later. The first half bets look really good to me. If these hit, I'll be hitting Italy and the under pretty hard in the 2nd game, if they don't hit, I'll be hitting Italy and the under really hard in the 2nd game:


ARGENTINA o2?+125 $50.00 $62.00

ARGENTINA o2-150 $400.00 $266.00

1-H ARGENTINA o1+115 $200.00 $230.00

1-H ARGENTINA o1?+265 $50.00 $132.00

4-TEAM PARLAY
