took a look yesterday and came up with the following bets i thought held some value.
Group E to have the most goals 8.8 NAP...lay group H 5.2 (1.24 equivalent)
Lay Eng to win group 1.39 ( 2.56 equivalent)
I would like Portugal outright with a view to trade if Brazil slip up.
My largest bet would be the Krouts to win their group at 1.96
i know there was a WC thread before but i couldn't find it to add.
my fav value team of the comp will be USA i think and i would be backing them singles throughout probably. ( as i have against Auz now (2:30pm KO this arvo) at 2.48
OK guys ... lets use this thread to ask if anyone wants to do a POOL
$30 each = $960
pay: Winners: $400 runners up: $200 third: $100 team who has golden boot: $100 team who has golden gloves:$100 team that concedes the MOST goals: $60
we need 32 up for it ... i will find a way to do a transparent draw ... you can buy more than one but lets cap it at 3.
One for me and one for my wife...
who else is keen?

To be fair you never struck me as a footballer ;)

ok im in for 2 teams, but i thought the one that conceded the most goals normally goes out in the group stages, however maybe more than one winner of golden gloves willing to bet teams who get knocked out in group stages all concede at least one goal

fifa have an award for best goalkeeper ... thats what im stating - using 2006 as an example:
Winner: Italy Runners-Up: France Third: Germany Adidas Golden Shoe: Miroslav KLOSE (GER) Yashin Award for the Best Goalkeeper: Gianluigi BUFFON (ITA)
the most goals conceded one was just a wild card for humour.

I lost my cards on Thursday so i can't fund my betting accy until the replacement gets here :(
but probs done me a favour lol
i have managed to place my main German bet and a couple of losing interest bets for the other games through pals.
Overs in SA v Mexico game (cant remember stake) would have done Nigeria but didnt would have done draw in Korea v Greece but didnt drawHT Eng FT yesterday, thouht that was gonna land. -£50 Overs in this dire Algeria v Slovenia game. -£50
wish i had done some group winner perms, that way i could have had in interest in every game without having having a direct bet. anyway... i will be leaving the afternoon games since my German group bet is good enough there.
here is a World Cup A4 wall chart of anyone wants it. http://cdn.worldcupblog.org/wc_wall.pdf

Brazil 4/5??? I know it is easy to tip Brazil, but they always play their best under no pressure, IE a couple of goals up etc. they don't need to win and will still have a fair team.

not bad, Group E were 3rd highest out of 8 beating one of the favs. NAP lay the fav for highest goals landed easily.
Lay England for the group win... EASY WIN
Brazil didn't slip up so the specualtive Portugal bet didn't land
USA won on the day of my post and are up also level stake so far and preferoming well IMO, will be having them single in the next round too...
and my main German group bet should have been an easy winner, but they still mangaged dispite facing the most crook ref and crook match out the games so far...
i've just permed up all the outsiders for this last 16 hoping for some shock results...
