10 on Greece
I wasn't back in time to make my investments upon the Czech market, but I want to put 30 on the Russian one, 30 Russian win. These are a decent price to win on Betfair too 2.48 or 6/4 in standard odds, might have to have a wee nibble at that one though I have been making my beer money on the bookings market again.
Poland v Russia
Mick - 55
Paul - Russia 10/80
Snow - 70
Papaya - Draw 2/40
Scher - Russia 20/20
Doc - OUT
Neely - Russia 30/100
Mark - OUT
I'm done with Greece :mad5:
Day 5:
Mick - 55
Paul - 70
Snow - 70
Papaya - 42
Scher - OUT
Doc - OUT
Neely - 70
Mark - OUT
As it turns out, I am done with betting as well! :D
Whoops, thought Russia would be better but Poland fought well - don't worry I didn't lose any beer money for real as I traded out early, none of us are doing well though.
Scher, I will lend you 20 but I want 30 back when we get our next batch of marks - 50%. This is my rate of commission, take it or leave it. (Come on, you need to take the gamble, invest wisely with the 20 marks and you can easily be in front of us in no time.)
Hey Scher I can lend you some.
Doc: Hae another go. Yesterday I would'e bet on Russia and Greece to win had I got in in time, so I would'e lost it anyway.
I can't help noticing that by not betting at all we would all be better oph. That's why bookies ride about in Rolls Royces.
5 on a draw Denmark v. Portugal
5 on Germany
I believe the correct spelling is "ophph".Quote:

15 on Portugal. I'm still thinking about the Germany match.
5 on Germany Holland draw. Going to very interesting as Holland have to win, but Germany will sit back and hit them on the counter. Hard to call though.
10 on Germany.
A good side Holland, but will sel distruct under pressure.
There has been some cracking games.
Public Service Announcement: If there's any country you'd like to see knocked out of the tournament, you can pay me to root for them and I guarantee they'll be on a plane home within the week.

Snow - 100
Papaya - 42
Scher - OUT

Really enjoyed today's games. Maybe the teams are just coming to their elements?
Tomorrow:
Italy V Croatia
Spain V R. of Ireland
Do you think Croatia and Ireland have any chance?
Croatia have an outside chance (of a draw) Ireland have none.
Have I only got 80? Have you borrowed some without letting me know?
10 on Italy
10 on Spain
30 on spain.
I really want Croatia to win this game but I think Italy won’t let them, let’s see.
10 on Italy
30 on Italy.
How many do you think you should have?Quote:

Edit: 70 on Spain to beat Ireland as well please.
15 on Spain
So we are all agreed that Ireland are going to lose the next one.
So I'll change my bet to 55 on Spain.
Damn I haven't got 70 due to Italy fluffing. I think I've got 50 left now so everything on Spain, 50 on Spain win.
Day 7:
Mick - 120
Paul - 90
Snow - 105
Papaya - 42
Scher - OUT
Doc - OUT
Neely - 100
Mark - OUT
Thanks for the offer, Neely. I should really wait because I get the feeling that I will lose whatever I borrow as well and start the next round in the red.
Today:
Ukraine V France
Sweden V England
3 on Ukraine
3 on Sweden
10 on France
20 on England --- yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
10 on France
25 on England
I was thinking of 10 on France as well. Difficult to call though.
50 on England to win
(I know, I know.)
Mick's had a beer...
I'll place a reckless 30 on England to win??
No danger...:skep:
Yeeeeeeeeessssss - just.
Looks like Hodgeson's making good decisions for the team - Carroll starting and scored. Walcott substituted on and scored and set up Welbeck. A bit of a nail biter in the second half. Only one more point to score and we're through.
But to then face Spain? :mad2:Quote:

Andy Carrol's header was sublime, I know he was unmarked and it was a good cross, but it was one o those Leni Riephenstahl moments when he leapt like a salmon and smacked the header into the top corner. The aesthetic quality almost oershadowed the sporting context.:D ( I hae become that Harry Enield ootball supporter.)
Today's games are:
Russia Vs Greece
Czech Vs Poland
Both games kick off at the same time from now on.
My bets:
Czech R and Poland draw 5
Russia to beat Greece 25
50 Dr on Russia to win
dang I missed it
