Not long to go now, anyone got any fancies? I think I'm going to do a couple of group dual forcast accas.
Group A
Brazil/Croatia 6/5
Group B
Spain/Holland 1/1
Group C
Colombia/Ivory Coast 2/1
Group E
France/Equador 2/1
Group F
Argentina/Bosnia 5/6
Group G
Germany/Portugal 4/6
Group H
Belgium/Russia 1/1
Thinking of doing a few 4-folds made up of a mixture of the above.
Also going to do a couple of Group winners accas made up of Brazil, Spain, Colombia, France,
Argentina, Germany and Belgium.
Good luck if you're having a bet

Brazil to win the world cup
100/30 get on, because they won't be that price when they get to the final. You can then either let your bet ride, or cash out for a small profit
might have a second bet on Neymar to be top goal scorer

Is that a sexual thing?

If you add the words "gerbal", "blood loss", "violent" and "Anal" in there, in any order, than it would be.

No
Another bet I like is Brazil to exit (the tournament) at the semi stage, 9/2 with Paddy Power
*I do think this is a good bet though

Ok so my story. For a bit of fun (no professional gambling bollocks) I committed to putting £10 in my Betfair account and seeing how long I could make it last through the duration of the tournament. Here is where I am up to.End day: Profit/loss: +£41.00

Good punting mate. I'm confused though, what are the 7 patents and 4 trixies on?

I wrote that like a bit of an idiot, almost confused myself as well
A Patent is a 3 selection wager that consists of 3 singles, 3 doubles and a treble (so seven bets in total)
A trixie is a 3 selection wager - 3 doubles and a treble (4 in total)
I always chuck a quid to cover all the outcomes of them so if 2 come in you get a bit more profit for a small amount (longer odds).
Given today has been the most difficult day to predict I think I may come out at a loss :S
