It took me long enough, but I have finally figured this shit out. Thank you Tunisia and Ukraine for allowing me to see the light!
Togo has absolutely no chance of beating France today. An elimination round in the World Cup without France is like a croissant without butter. Think about all the money that will be generated when the French loyals flock to the stadium for the elimination round games. This will be the biggest wager I make this year!
FRANCE -550
Risking $2,750 to win $500
Korea has absolutely no chance of beating Switzerland. Switzerland's proximity to Germany means more money for everyone involved in putting on this tournament. Korea in the round of 16, who cares? Nobody wants to see that! There is an outside chance of a draw because the Swiss would still advance if that happens. Therefore, I'm playing it both ways to guarantee a profit. Two more big wagers for me. I need to start trimming my deficit.
SWITZERLAND -.5 (+105)
Risking $2,000 to win $2,100
DRAW +180
Risking $2,000 to win $3,600
