    World Cup Bets

    What kind of bets is everyone making in the World Cup.

    I'm putting €5.00 on Spain to win and a fiver on Villa for top scorer.

    If Spain win and Villa gets top scorer I get €70.00

    MERGED

    if they dont win it this year they never will. this is the strongest team in ages. i no they always have a decent strength team put even this year some of the usual teams are bad.

    portugal struggled to qualify
    argentina dnt have a good manager or defence
    france are a very poor side and will hopefully get booed every game :56:
    germany dont have ballack

    This has been a horrible World Cup to bet on.

    Hopefully it'll be easier in the knockout stages. I'm on an overall loss at the moment.

    Last bet of the group stages for me:

    France to beat South Africa, Argentina to beat Greece, Holland to beat Cameroon, Spain to beat Chile.

    5 returns 40.

    EDIT: Oh ffs, France a goal down and a man down. That's me beat already.

    Had villa /spain , bookies paid out on sunday at 1/4 the odds then today get a lovely nice email saying they had changed there minds and paying 1/2 the odds * lovely ,

    We noticed that you had bet on Spain to win the World Cup with David Villa being the top goalscorer.

    Because Villa was tied on 4 goals with Thomas Muller, Diego Forlan and Wesley Sneijder, we originally decided to settle the market at 1/4 odds as per our dead heat rules. However, as a Fairplay Concession we have now decided to payout at 1/2 odds. This adjustment has been carried out and the additional funds are already in your account.

    :icon_mrgreen: Extra £118.75 + sundays =237. better than a kick in the balls .
