My Euro Bets 2012

[Aiden Roberts]

How we are not getting beat is beyond me

I can't think of watching an England side play as bad as this, I was feeling confident after the group matches, not now, this is a bad Italy side and England are being played off the park by them, can't even string simple passes together, atrocious, now the fun of penalties, got to win on penalties some time, due a change of luck.

 

[Systreg]

Every fecking time :evil:

Saves the pain of watching Germany beat us in the next round. Very disappointing

Where's the mars advert guy when you need him?

Where's the mars advert guy when you need him?

Ha! Good one

 

[retired_member33]

Didn't like that ad anyway, him stopping a penalty by Van Persie

I think England played well.. Was a bit dissapointed by the bbc after the match, they were sort of downtalking England where I think they did a really good job and played a really good game.

Anyone agrees? Or disagrees?

Think they were spot on. We gave them all the time and space to do what they liked for pretty much the entire 2nd half and extra time. Then, when we did get the ball, it was lost in seconds.

 

[Systreg]

Against my better judgement, I've just placed these 2 x £10 bets at half time:

Portugal and Over 2.5 Goals @ 20/1

Portugal 2-1 @ 28/1

 

[Systreg]

£20 down over the course of the tournament now, so staking another £10 on each of these bets:

Germany 3-2 @ 40/1

Italy/Germany @ 28/1

Running total = £358.70 staked - £318.15 returned (football only bets)

 

[Aiden Roberts]

I will update the stats later but before seeing your post I did ht/ft both ways and germany 3-2 @ 40-1 maybe its an omen.

 

[Systreg]

maybe its an omen.

I hope so, now we have the first half result, all we need now is 3 German goals without reply in the second half haha

Italy are ripping them to shreds, I did say earlier in the topic that I thought the German machine was a bit broken, but didn't expect them to be 2-0 down at this point.

 

[Aiden Roberts]

It could happen, I can't help thinking this score is flattering the Italians. I can't get my head around I am willing the Germans on especially after the chippy incident.

 

[Systreg]

Yes, definitely not over yet, but the German machine needs to have had a service and turbos added at half time , if they can get a goal in the first 10 minutes of the second half, that could do 2 things, either the Italians will then start defending in numbers, which will result in more German shots at goal from distance, or the Italians carry on attacking and hopefully get caught on the break.

 

[Aiden Roberts]

Didnt see that coming.

Well here we are at the final, here are the stats:

team/team x13
team/draw x3
draw/team x10
draw/draw x4

30 bets 24 losses -£33.50

team/team x13 average odds 3-1 stake £60 returns £39 -£21
team/draw x3 average odds 16-1 stake £60 returns £48 -£12
draw/team x10 average odds 5-1 stake £60 returns £50 -£10
draw/draw x4 average odds 4-1 stake £60 returns £16 -£44

I think we can conclude that my original betting strategy was rubbish and the bookies always win

Good luck with your bets tonight!

I've gone for Italy to win in 90 mins and Balotelli to score anytime @ 8/1.

Italy 3-2 @ 66/1
