Pepe the Horseman Costa Rica 10/3


Me too.

In other news, really frustrated with myself for not grabbing the 6/1 avaible on Iran to beat Bosnia. Iran looked impressive against Argentina and you could have got this price right up until late on in the Bosnia v Nigeria game. A late equaliser would have changed everything, but for a while you were getting 6/1 on a surely demoralised and eliminated Bosnia losing to an Iran team who still had a very good chance of progression.

Shortly after the final whistle in the Bosnia v Nigeria game the price was backed down to 12/5 or something.

I really thought after the Chile thing that I might have earned some credibility on this thread :(

Lucky 15/Acca and doubles /Trebles on Costa Rica, Uruguay, Colombia and Ivory Coast as well as over 2.5 goals in each games and btts.

Also have a lucky 15 1st goalscorer. Suarez/Campbell/Rodriguez and Bony

£75 total, returns a lot if all comes in :)

Haven't won a single bet this world cup, although not bothered as most have been small stakes silly bets. Got Neymar and Muller top goalscorer with paddy power so like the free 5vers. France to win outright and Germany with coral (money back if Brazil and Argentina win). My closest I came was a correct score treble with Switzerland/Ecuador, France/Honduras coming in but hen Messi got greedy against Bosnia and didn't square to Higuain for 3--1 which killed me :(

Saw on twitter a bet from Norway. Someone put 32 krone on Suarez to bite somebody at the world cup, returned 5200 krone! About 500 quid. Madness!

Portugal -1 at 5/2 looks tempting with the trouble in the Ghana camp.

I fancy the 13/5 on Algeria tonight, or possibly the 5/6 on them qualifying.

That's the last time I secretly listen to you, whilst publicly mocking you.

I've always been a big fan of Islam.

Now the plan is that Russia get desperate and torn apart on the break :!:
