You don't HAVE to lay a team. Or a score. Or a scorer etc.

First game winnings spent on second game losses, so back to square one.

I think the Azzuri might 'do a Germany' here and make a potentially tricky game look easy. Paraguay don't have much in attack, and their defence is prone to mistakes, I'm going for a comfortable Italy win, in spite of their own patchy form.

2pts Italy 2-0 at 10.5
2pts Italy 3-0 at 29
2pts Gilardino 1st goal at 7.2

I was tempted to back Paraguay- but really didn't think they could do it...so instead I put money on my first ever accumulator. Seemed easy- all odds on favourites, but it looks like failing at the first hurdle. :evil:

Quite impressed with bet365 tv commercials that give you the half time price. Ray Winston is a bit of a pcunt but live pricing in a commercial think that's a first

NR_Royal Right, I've decided to take up 888sport.com's offer of a fully refundable first £20 bet.

Accumulator on:

Germany to beat Australia
Holland to beat Denmark
Slovakia to beat NZ
Brazil to beat North Korea
Spain to beat Switzerland
Chile to beat Honduras
and the most risky: Italy to draw with Paraguay

£20 returns £432.93

:D


Ooh.... :lol:

Looking good NR. You will find the most dead cert bet could ruin it for you, hope not for your sake.

Good job NR, good luck on the other 'certs'.

Betting is still shit, but my account isn't empty, so today I've gone for Draw/Slovakia at 4.8, and Slovakia 2-0 at 6.8.

Quite gutted for you to be fair, you had posted up early doors and called an excellent shout in the Italy Paraguay game.

On the flip side my little gambles on 'unders' continues to swell my pot bit by little bit...anotehr £4-00 for that.

Brazil overs probably my next one now.

Seven-way acca is usually destined for failure.
