I thought it would be a draw and I was wrong but sure thats the nature of gambling, big deal but know need to come on wise after the bet and say it was a waste of money. Easy knowing you waited till after the game to do that rather than say it before the game.
well im only home so didnt get a chance to post it before.
Im gonna say England will beat Sweden,so lets see how that goes.
If its a draw you can say it was a waste of money if you want,and il accept it and agree with you.
Just cause you lose a bet does not mean it was a waste of money. Betting for Argentina to win 6-0 against Serbia would have been a waste of money but you would have won. Betting on Liverpool to win the Champions league at 3-0 would have been a waste of money. Football has a habit of making fools out of us all that is why its not a great sport to bet on. I think the game tonight will be tight and both managers have said a draw suits them so I felt it will be a draw but who knows England could sneak a win or Sweden could sneak a win. I did not agree with you coming on here and taking the **** out of my bet after the event which is a pretty easy thing to do.
You sound bitter that you didn't realise they would drop all those players, easy mistake that happens to the best of us. Get over it.
You seem more jealous of the fact that he's been gambling in running and you haven't. Relax. I didn't think it was that smug at all.
thanks Soko,he is going a bit OTT.
Going for England to win 3 or 4 nil
Decent prices anyway, 25-1 and 66-1
Thus ensuring England lose knowing my betting track record :D
looking ok for england but they havent created many chances.
what a strike for J.Cole......Only england player doing anything good.
Think Sweden could get one back,so england need to score the next goal.
fcuking knew sweden would score....never backing england again.
When England scored my bets for a 3 or 4 nil win didn't look too remote.Quote:

Looks like the smart money was on the draw but I like a big price so
I don't have to put to much on and then I don't feel bad when
I inevitable lose.
I can't see England winning the tournement after a performance like
that, their price of 13/2 is a joke in my opinion, they only have one
fully fit proven striker left.
The 6-1 for Ecuador to beat England looks quite appealing but I expect
they will scrape through somehow.
Well I did England to win and half time and game to end in a draw and got it at 14/1, lucky I got that one, ahh well you win some you lose some. I felt England often start well and are not good in the 2nd half against teams so I felt the 14/1 was great value and so it turned out.
Lads in relation to the above, I am not bitter at all as it was only a tenner but I dont like been talked down to by smug comments. As I said above you win some you lose some
I've predicted the outcomes from the last 2 days in the prediction league correctly. That would have paid a bit, about 35/1. :(
None of the outcomes were much of a suprise which is more annoying.
Btw - this is a bet I put on pre-WC:

At least you were put out of your misery early....Hard luck
A draw on Holland v Argentina today today looks appealing at 2/1. A 0-0 looks very appealling at 11/2 considering it has the makings of a "sit back and take it easy" game. I fancy Angola to beat Iran and Ivory Coast should ensure that Serbia go home pointless.
I'm unsure of the Portugal v Mexico game. I think Portugal should have too much for them but I've read that Scolari will not play all 5 players that picked up bookings including Deco, Ronaldo and Pauletta so a draw would be more on the cards thus ensuring both go through.
I think a 2 draws between Mexico and Portugal and Holland Argentina are decent bets in my view. But betting on final games that do not mean that much is always dodgy.

Jeez he must be a serious gambler to throw €200 on a bet like that...
Does anyone have any idea why you can still back Brazil to win their group at 1/100 on Betfair? They've won the group already even if they lose 10-0 tomorrow.
Is it not goal difference that counts first? Australia can still pass them if so.Quote:
