Fancy England to get something, oddly. Brazil have done poorly under Scholari, and England know how to park the bus. England AH + 1 is close to evens.

i think with it being a showpiece match, new stadium etc, brazil will be up for it and fielding their strongest..still its one of the rare occassions when i wouldnt mind losing a bet if we manage to pull it off

SCOM
1 bet, 0 wins, -100% ROI, avg price 1.6

Scom
Well done IQMC with the 6% ROI after 175 bets, but 6% is not enough of a return for me


Good luck with beating 6% with bets at 1.6 fraudy

If SCOM is a "Trader" ....then 1-0 BRAZIL would be enough for he/she to go all green IQMC.

So don't really see why you consider this a LOSS for SCOM ????

Personally, I don't count that above scenario as trading. It's betting that England will be ahead at one point. Trading to me is trying to profit from market movements when nothing prima facie changes.

"Trader" might be wrong word......but nevertheless BRAZIL took the lead and if he backed 1.65 as  VALUE back initially, then ,when goes 1-0 ,lays some of profit on BRAZIL off to go all green in match market .......leads to profit.

BRAZIl should have been a few goals ahead at HT.......so SCOM's view that BRAZIL were value at 1.65 was a reasonable view on the odds.

ENGLAND did well to hang in 1st half....and took goals well.....The game probably was more important to E before WCQ matches, whereas BRAZIL already have qualified by right.....and their sharpness was not there in this match. So mentally a good result for E.....before next match.

why would a trader lay off at 1-0, when they didnt red out at half time

backing a 1.6 shot and laying off if it hits the front seems a weak strategy

if its a good 1.6 shot and it gets beat its still a good 1.6 shot, and constant
identification of value bets is the best way forward

Darlo is, of course. Sweetchildofmine backed Brazil because he
thought it was a good price, simple as that, nor is there anything
wrong with backing a loser, except of course, if your name is
Kenilworth. The backer should remember though, that people in
glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Losers at 2/7 and 4/6 means that
backing odds on shots now requires the OP to back 6 winners to get level!

The only one having A breakdown is the op who can't take it that he/they have been exposed as fraudsters.

Of course there is nothing wrong with backing A loser but let the op have A taste of his own medicine.

DUFC i would not Call backing at 1.6 and then greening up at the first opportunity 'trading'. I would call that giving away profit because the 'trader' feels uncomfortable with money in play. This style of betting will only hinder the roi and ultimately lose money.

Trading to me is making dozens of quick price movement bets every race/match.

Finally, I don't believe in luck and I accept it has no role in winning or losing (long-term)

IQMC - In the BRAZIL game......it did look the type of match the way it was being played that BRAZIL would score.....but having put so much effort into keeping possession 1st half....that the opposition would get a chance to score and might take it.

So when BRAZIL took lead.....there was always a danger in that game that it would go to 1-1, and may well finish 2-2. Any team working so hard 1st half .....in such conditions .....may well falter 2nd half....and that is how E got their chances which they took very well.

So....you might view it as GIVING AWAY PROFIT laying home team at 1-0 to secure a profit.....but as it finished 2-2.....in this case such a lay decision would have been proven to be "correct" on that match.

On balance the initial BACK on BRAZIL at 1.65 odds was a very good decision by SCOM as an initial bet. IMO If he/she kept that bet , then IMO they were making a mistake on THAT GAME.........but in long run their initial bet was a good bet based on BRAZIL being likely to dominate from the start.

LUCK does exist IQMC.......and ENGLAND's LUCK held up 1st half.....otherwise they would have been hammered. You might say it was down to their "good" defence.....but IMO was down to poor execution on opportunities created by BRAZIL. Had they been playing ARGENTINA ......BRAZIL would not have missed such chances....but it was only ENGLANDDevilLaugh....so they were careless on finishing.
