Pepe the Horseman Germany/France double at evens is surely easy money. Right guys??!!


Have done a 3/1 double on boh games producing more than 3.5 cards as the tension mounts in these later rounds.

is this backed by evidence? I'm guessing that the price accurately reflects what has happened in previous events

You're just using reason. Which can be flipped either way i.e. play safe so you don't get suspended from later rounds v doing
whatever it takes to get your team into the next round

Referees still incredibly lenient.
It worked in the previous two games but last night it didn't .
Having had a 4-timer going on to Germany last night to win (Holland, Costa Rica to draw, France to win)I ended up backing the draw at half-time at 5/2 which covered the stake on the previous bet plus a bit of profit.
Despite Algeria playing really well in the first-half I couldn't see them winning the game so I could rule out the win for them and just backed the draw which worked better than taking the cashing-out option.

Have lumped on at 4/6 for more than 2.5 cards in the Argentina game and will re-invest in the Belgium game if this one comes up as USA are quite aggressive and Kompany sometimes takes one for the team plus Hazard being a diver helps.

Both sides to win on penalties as at the start of the game they are usually 10/1+; if it happens, bingo.

Looking at the quarters, I can see all but one of the games going to penalties.

Just because I bet on someone doesn't automatically mean they lose.



It's mainly a question of coincidence.
