Mate, I was laughing at the Phil Hellmuth reference!

Just put 2 euro down on Spain and Holland, both with a 2 goal handicap. It's a long shot i know but 15/1 seems like a pretty good price.

Won on Westwood (13/1) in the US golf last night which follows up a win for me with McDowell (22/1) last weekend and a separate 50/1 place. Shame it's the US Open next week as I've a terrible record in that tournament.

South Korea looking good Crop. ;)

What's a 2 goal handicap mean? Have you lost that bet because if you add 2 goalds to Denmark's score it was a draw?

Yeah you got it, Denmark with a +2 handicap would be a losing bet as the result would be 2 - 2.

Am well miffed. Had a tenner six-timer on South Korea, Slovenia, Argentina, Holland, USA plus a goal, and fudging Serbia :evil:

Was going to be a right tidy sum.

gooseberry fool game. Oh yeah, so was that. I lose bets again. I might just forget about it and just keep my £10 bet on Germany.. How are you supposed to make educated guesses when the results are as unlikely as they have been?


The worst thing you can do is lose faith my friend, the bets will start coming through eventually 8-)


I'll put this here.. So yeah, ticked off. Fully expect Eto'o to get at least one, with Cameroon beating what has been a very weak Japanese side. Two bets lost. Expected 2-1 in both Netherlands/Denmark and Italy/Paraguay.. Two more lost, when they shouldn't have IF ITALY AND DENMARK WEREN'T SO gooseberry fool!

Hopefully tomorrow will fare better. Based on the strawberry floated up results so far, I expect a shock North Korea 2-0 win. :lol:

:x

Can you do more than a treble accumulator on Betfair?
