This is going to be tough to swallow. I can't believe Belgium set piece offense is so inept.

Play #5 has gone final

USA vs Ghana 2-1 for 3 goals and the over and Belgium 2-1 winners over Algeria for a winning parlay and 0.98 units

WC Record 4-0 +3.04 units

Note......there was a reason I hesitated on laying the -1 with Belgium and I think you saw why.

Its time for all of us to start tightening the screws as the games become more important and the lines get sharper....we must get sharper and do whatever it takes to cash tickets.

For those of you thinking that this guy is only up 3 units...its a big deal to me because this is what I do...and they are not small units......thus I must do everything I can to increase my chances to both cash tickets and add even portions of units.

Play #6
Brazil vs Mexico
Brazil to score over 2 -120......

Risk 1.0 unit to win 0.83 units

Quick thoughts.....Both these clubs have capable scorers ...and you will be saying why do I care about BOTH teams scoring when you have Brazil over 2......

The reason is simple.....every goal that Mexico scores than Brazil must 1 up them if they intend to win in front of their fans and keep moving toward the WC that has been "pressured" on them......

I believe Mexico has the quality scorers to forcecBrazil to score goals and I think Brazils last game was sub par and the offense should shine.....besides I'm thinking their defense is hood but not great again meaning Mexico will score.

I had scores penciled in as 2-1, 2-2, 3-1, 3-2and two get me the push.....and of course 3 the winner.

Will be cheering everyone cashes more tickets than they don't!!

Play #6 has gone final with Brazil scoring 0 and for that matter Mexico didn't score either......I was wrong about this eager..,..even tho there were a couple of great saves by the Mexican goalie.....but after watching the match I don't feel it was played like I thought it would play out.

WC Record now 4-1 +2.04 units

Invest,   Every once in a while, a goalie does head stands, and messes with a logical outcome. Good call, Bad outcome

bad luck with that last play Invest, Ochoa got the save of the tournament in the 1st half but you probably lucked out with late goals in the US and belgian games.

"swings and roundabouts" innit

keep up the good work

Hey guys and gals.......

 

Yes they do tend to even out.......i did feel like I wasnt right with the way the game was played out tho. I cant complain with my results so far.........I think what most folks lose sight of is that these teams are all closer to even sort of the best of the best.......so on any given day.......the underdog looks like the better team.........

 

I will be cheering you all cash more winning tickets than you lose.....

Cheers

Play #7....
Is a 2 team parlay
Netherlands-1 -283 to defeat Australia parlay with Spain vs Chile Over 2 -258.......risk 1.0 unit to win 0.87 units.....

The Netherlands have a potent attack and I ask my self do they want to clinch a spot from this round right now vscAustralia or do they want to mess around gain only a point or no points vs Australia and than have to deal with a desperate and more potent Chile next. I believe they put the Spain match behind and roll 2-0, 2-1, 3-0, 3-1......don't get me wrong as I think Australia will fight tooth and claw but the talentef dutch side should prevail.

Spain is now definitely in chase mode but more importantly they are in chase mode in goal differential......they will play avchile team that likes to attack although since child has 3 points they know a draw with Spain will really put them in a great spot if not a clinching spot.....Spain must get 3 and get 3 with some goals.....chile can score......so I like the over but bet it down as Chile tries like call heck to keep it down.

Just sharing my play
Cheers to all

Play #7 has gone final and there was a push in both so nothing made and nothing lost.

WC Record still at 4-1 +2.04 units

***Interesting side note as the old me and the way I use to wager haphazardly and often.....I would have made a second half wager on that Spain v Chile as an over .......but these days since I already had a wager in action on that match, I did not and I recommended to a friend not to do it.......I would have lost the second half wager.

Should he interesting to watch Spain's next match.

I will he cheering you all cash more tickets than you lose.

WC Record stands at 4-1 +2.04 and no I'm not counting pushes/ties.

Play #8
Columbia vs Ivory Coast over 2 1/2, 3 +138.......risk 1.0 unit to win 1.38 units

After watching both teams matches I realized that both clubs move forward on offense just a bit better than they defend. I do think Columbia has the better defense but holding Greece to 0 was partly a bi-product of Greece's style.

Not that numbers mean much, but from what I saw from watching was the offense of these clubs has a lot of sharpness to them....

Some numbers...going back to January of 2013 the Ivory Coast in the 20 international matches they played in the total for scoring 3 goals or more between both clubs was like 16out of 20 or 80%. AlSo I read that of Ivory Coast last 10 WC matches that in 8 of those they scored 2 or more goals that's at an 80% clip.

Columbia in their international matches at home score 2 or more goals at around a 70% clip and although Columbia isn't playing in Columbia I imagine playing in Brazil is like playing in their back yard and fans in the stands leaning Columbia.

I'm sure both clubs would be happy to win 1-0 and pick up the prized 3 points.....but with so much offensive mindset I'm wagering that one score leafs to 3+........and Ivory Coast can use a couple extra goals possibly as tie breaker...

I predicted final scores of 2-1, 2-2, 3-1, 3-2....and I like the risk vs reward......we shall see.....

Just sharing my play
Will be cheering you all have a positive WC and cash some tickets.

Play #8 has gone final
Columbia 2-1 winners over Ivory Coast and 3 goals for a winner and a push.....end result get to add 0.69 units.

WC Record now at 5-1 +2.73 units

Now you know why I mentioned in that game that once 1 goal was scored it would mean 3+......those team can fly!!

Think Uruguay can shut them down in the 2H? I've had a feeling after that Rooney free kick and a couple of small missteps by both goalies that 2 goals is the absolute minimum these teams will score. 

Af of halftime (0-1) I think this ends either 0-2 or 1-2 to Uruguay.

Sorry Mugsy.....
I was watching the game .......

I did mention on DJs thread that I liked the over but refused to lay the -125 ish.....and after watching the first half I was happy I didn't ......

It all works out in the end if capped correct often enough the tickets will be cashed. Keep in mind I'm not sorry I didn't play it because it wasn't in my money management structure and at my unit amount I can't afford to mess around for actions sake.

I will be cheering that everyone keeps cashing those tickets.
