Got quite a few small bets on the World Cup this year to keep my simple mind entertained whilst i 'grind' the high stakes mtt's ($26 45 manS) on Full Tilt...
Raise The River Forum - $20 sweepy i got Holland and Ghana. Winner 50% of $320 prizepool, 2nd 35% and 3rd 15%. Also tiny top scorer sweepy $10 and only 5 of us little fish and each of us have 5 players lol. Got Rooney, Van Persie (injured?), Tevez, Forlan, Poldolski, $50 ftw.
Blonde Forum - £10 sweepy i got England (weeee) £175 - Winner, £100 - Runner Up, £45 Worst team. Also a £25 sweepy i got Greece (sigh, fml etc) £450 - Winner, £250 - Runner Up, £100 - Worst team. £10 Top scorer comp i got Rooooney Rooooooney Rooooooooney! £175 - 1st, £100 - 2nd, £45 - 3rd.
Also doing one of those predict every result, teams to qualify for the QF, Semi and Final things with a bunch of other people, gg another £10.
Lastly i've just decided to bet $10 on the outcome of every game. So 64 games total starting balance of $640.
Check itThe amount i wager might change depending on my balance and state of mind
South Africa v Mexico Draw 3.20
France to beat Uruguay 2.15
Lets gogogooooo!
EDIT:
Day 1 +12
Decided to increase bet size already in Day 2 (ut oh), tomo picks..
S. Korea v Greece Draw $10 2.75
Argies to beat Nigeria $50 1.4
England to beat Yanks $20 1.5
Seeing as i've blown out the $10 on each game, 64 games so $640 total stake i'll give myself a $500 starting balance. I will NOT donate any more than that.
Starting Balance $500
Current Balance $512
Sigh, just realised the odds i'm getting on pp are fkin tez. Been advised to use this www.bestbetting.com or get myself on Betfair.
Right, just reactivated Betfair acc and about 70% ish of prices seem better so to confuse things further i'll use both accounts. So lets say my starting balance on pp is $400 and £200 on Betfair.
FML, completely scrape that bullshit, Betfair is better across the board. After tomo games i'll only be using Betfair and i'll convert any profit/loss from $$$ on pp into £££ on BF. Starting balance will be £400. Lets goooooooooooo!
Day 2: -$10. Overall Profit/loss $2 (Sigh Rob Green)
Day 3: Still on Party Poker
Slovenia to beat Algeria $15 2.20
Serbia Ghana Draw $10 3.20
Australia to beat Krauts $20 6.50 (Come on you Ozzays!!)
Day was looking gd with the slov win and the ghana serb game 0-0 with 5 mins left, sigh. My optimistic flutter on the Ozzays didnt work out so $12 loss today (such swings)
Sticking my betting roll on Betfair as better odds than partay.
Starting Bal: £400
Current Bal: £394
Todays picks
Holland to beat Denmark £25 1.53
