Hi Guys !

I like to put my money where my mouth is, and give you my World Cup bets.

I do online betting with William Hill, however, I used Coral in the town yesterday because Odds are slightly better, and therefore I used cash.

I withdrew £350 from the bank. I entered Coral to place my bets.

I have to admit that I broke my main betting rule - Do not back two back more than one selection in the same comp/race.

Why? - well because you are backing against your other selections, meaning your other stakes are wasted..... ie, -

You select two horses in the same race at 6/4 Joint Favs, with the same stakes, and you have the winner, you still lose.

How? - £10 on your winning horse at 6/4....you pick up £25 (minus your £10 stake) you gain £15...Right?......Then you realise that the £10 on the other horse is also part of the joint bet. Meaning that your £15 win, is now a minus £5.

Outlay - £20.........Pick-up - £15 = Minus £5



This is an exaggeration of course - Nevertheless, I broke my golden rule.

I placed the following bets in the same race/comp -

£150 - France WC Winners @ 5/1 = £900
£150 - Spain WC Winners @ 9/2 = £825
£50 - England WC Winners @ 7/1 = £400

If the winning team is above, the least I will win will be - £50. The most I will win will be £550.

That said, the temperature conditions will favour all non European teams......Brazil, Argentina etc


What are your bets guys?

Good shout !
 
Stuck a few bob on Portugal to win it, I think Brazil will do well under Ancelotti as well.
Don’t fancy England at all, we have looked awful recently.

Had this last night.

Switzerland not scoring over 1.5 knocked me out of £140 from £10. Brazil not winning ruined another 8/1 builder for £225 back and McTominay not having a shot on target another 9/1 for £100 back.

Paddypower actually pay out a shot on target for hitting the woodwork which is frustrating.

£340 up on the World Cup so far though can’t complain. Had a flutter on in play player stuff in Switzerland and took £180 profit. Embolo shots created and Vargas foul involvements were easy money.

Not much value in Germany game but like the look of this double.

Juninho Bacuna 2+ fouls
Havertz 2+ shots created.

Potentially adding 1+ Kimmich tackle to boost the odds slightly to 2/1.
