QuoteStarts tomorrow.
Not something I'd bet on but just for a bit of fun I'll match your £100 to see which of us can return the most profit by the end of the tournament.
My first bet; Libya @ 3.0 bwin, bet £5.
Always like this tournament
Will gamble a 100 pounds (all I can afford at moment!)
Here are some of my bets (with Betfair uk)
Think its Ivory Coasts to lose with Drogba, kalou and gervinho up front and a solid defence. 13/8 isnt much of a price though. (£7)
Senegal to make the final. 13/8 (£5)
Will probably meet Ghana in semis so will be a tough call, but i think they are an improving team this year and probably do enough to scrape past Ghana.
7/2 a Senegal - IC final. (£5)
Top goalscorer - will stick with ivory coast - so drogba is 7/1 (£5), Kalou is 19/1 (£10), gervinho 24/1 (£3), bony 27/1 (£2), doumba 15/1 (£2)
Group betting, no real value but did Gabon to win group c at 3/1 in the weakest group imho (£2)
Today's games (n most of the dosh!)
Did Libya (15/8) and Senegal (4/6) in a double and singles.
Libya a nation with a lot of pride at the moment against Eq Guinea who cant be that good? And Senegal to beat a weak Zambia.
Scores - 2-1 to Libya (13/1 -£2) and 3-0 (16/1-£2) to Senegal
Plus all the basic over goals bets and to nil bets that one can do in any game.
Ok lets see how long I can last.(please god not two boring nil-nil games!)

Damn, it is tomorrow
great stream here - http://www.vipbox.tv/watch/28448/1/e...am-online.html
Not a bad first game, pity about the result but the best team def won. Banked a pound, come on Senegal, please dont let me down!!!!!
Never guess that Libya were in a civil war, jesus diving all round the place and really should have won this game, but Eq Guinea spirit came through and they were the better team. Randy and Balboa were the stars, and a good game from the ref too.
Alos enjoyed the commentary from Eurosport whoever it was, on the ball.
God damn it,lol. If not the third goal wud be fecked. Banked a 9 due to that, so down 90 squid. Jesus why were Senegal playing such a high line, still should get out of the group, but another team that should have won but due to bad coaching!!
Anyway 15 quid left to play around with for tomorrows games
3-1 to angola 41/1 , £2(like these bets,lol)
IC any score over 3-0, 3-1, ie any unquoted 4/1 £2
angola to win game 2/1 £2
over 3.5 goals in IC game 9/4 £2.27
over 3.5 goals in angola game 9/2 £3.73
and thats that!!!!
(and the rest is for the double!)
Oops!
IC V Sudan - fairly pedestrian stuff, awful defending at the back for IC, reall lax stuff and a better team than Sudan would have punished them. Sudan were awful unlucky not to snatch a goal, but hell at least Drogba and IC are off the mark
Phew!
10 to play with in tomorrows game.
Morocco v Tunisia - going for the draw -11/5 -£2
2-2 (hopeful!) 21/1 - £2
Gabon v Niger - score 2-1 9/1 -£2
Over 2.5 goals 6/4 -£2
double - gabon/draw morr - tun 4/1 £2
God damn it unlucky for that third goal, but cant fault Gabon they were great and did all the work in the first half and Niger never looked like doing anything. Gabon look good going forward.
Need a draw in next game if not then will be waiting till groups finish for some dosh!
(am i the only gambler here - putting my head on the block!!!)
Feck that anyway, wow what a good game, just so close for 2-2, wow,lol. Ok take a break from this, have some very small bets on IC, Ghana, Senegal and Gabon to win their groups. Anyway still shaking after that game, what a chance in end to get 2-2!!!! Happy for Gerets anyway, never rated him.
A good nations cup so far, all games are exciting.
So IC win the group, had a very small bet on that,lol, banked a whopping pound - -82 now,lol
Ok 2 squid on a double tomorrow Gabon n draw in other game -8/1 - £2
With kalou, Drobga and Bony all on one, would nice to think they will get a few more? IC slowly moving onwards.

3 games for kalou or drogs to score a few goals?????
Ok banked 2 squid, now down to -73
2 quid on Gabon at evens
Drogba shud get another goal at least if IC get to the final, might break even yet! Would be nice to think Kalou would score anytime soon!
AAAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH Drobga why, why, why.
So bad tipping on my part - about -68, but oh could and should be different. IC should have won the damn thing, but fair dues to zambia, a very well coached team (unlike IC), with speedy wingers, fighters and players with heart. Well done Zambia, hoep ye can go on and qualify for the world cup.
As for IC.(and sengeal)..........................
