World cup bets

There's a few good bets for the world cup,

The request a bet for Brazil to win and Neymar to get the golden ball is 12/1
but if you click on the discovery zone banner and go to Group G,
you can get 66/1 which is pretty great odds!
Note it's the golden ball for best player of the tournament not the golden boot for most goals.
In Group D you can get France to win and MBappe to get the golden ball at 66/1 too,
which is certainly possible.

I think Argentina will do well this tournament, the discovery zone boost is Messi to get the golden ball
and Lautaro Martinez to get 3+ goals which I fancy at 20/1.

Any good bets caught your eye?

    Hi. Thanks for this. 12/1 into 66/1 is an eye-watering price boost.

    At lower odds, Argentina 1st & Saudi Arabia 4th in Group C at EVS looks a great price to me. I struggle to see this group panning out any other way, and in a small accumulator with a few quid behind it could lead to some handsome returns. In the Discovery Zone you can also get Saudi Arabia to lose all 3 games at 11/4, although max stake I think is only £10.
    Having watched the AFCON, I expect teams like Cameroon and Ghana to struggle as well, and backing goals in the group stage is probably the way to go. Indeed, there was only one 0-0 game in all of the 2018 WC Group Stages.

    This thread may also get a bit more relevant traction in the betting chat column. Maybe @Tikay10 can move it?

    I'm going to be going LOW on Corners throughout, as I think the heat etc will slow the games down, & when a game goes 1-0 or 2-0 the winning team will close the game down.

    Today's bets;


    Fixed Odds;

    £50 @ 8/15, UNDER 10 corners.

    Spreads

    Multi Corners (1st half corners x 2nd half corners)

    SELL @ 19 for £1.50 per point. (May trade out during game to lock in profit or limit loss).


    Off we go.

    What bet? The multi-corners? That's on Sporting Index SPREADS.

    The Fixed odds bet is on Wm Hill, but available lots of places.

    PS - PLEASE don't follow my logic. I'm just having a bit of fun for interest.

    Half Time - the current Multi-Corner line is 2.5 - 5.5 so we could close out now for a ~£20 profit, but I'm going to let it run for a while longer. Greed is the problem here, I really ought to take that £20 profit....
  • Tikay10Tikay10 Member, Administrator, Moderator Posts: 159,811

    I've closed out the Multi Corner spread bet in the 50th minute for £21 profit.


    Multi-Corners
    Qatar v Ecuador
    Stop loss: 75.0 point
    Bet value: +£21
    Thank you. Your bet has been closed.

    Nice bet but really don,t think the heat will be a factor. These air cons are keeping the pitch temperature pretty low

    This could barely have gone better.

    Both bets on the Qatar - Ecuador game came in, there was £26.64 profit from the FO bet, & I closed out the Spread bet for a £21 profit.

    Running Profit/Loss = +£47.64


    Today?

    England - Iran @ 1pm - NO BETS

    Senegal v Netherlands @ 4pm - NO BETS

    USA v Wales @ 7pm - two bets to follow later this afternoon.

    Sorry just spotted the questions, the Brazil boost was at 66/1 for about a week, went down to 16/1 around the 18th and was removed on the 19th, so presumably it got a fair bit of action!
    You can get a Messi hat trick against Saudi Arabia tomorrow at 10am (18/1)
    which might be worth a quid :)

  • Tikay10Tikay10 Member, Administrator, Moderator Posts: 159,811

    30 minutes gone, & we can cash out the Spread bet for a £7.50 profit, but that greed thing is there again, & I'm going to hang on a bit longer.

    ...and seconds later there's a corner and £7.50 is now £4.50.
