Hi all - its been awhile since I've posted here but I am always following. Definitely wanted to try and get back on for the World Cup. 

My general strategy is to play either side of the so-called juicy lines but will also occasionally take some value when I see it. Below are my futures bets I have locked in so far. Happy to discuss.

 

Futures

Russia to finish last in Group A +1030 (risk 0.177%)

Russia NOT to advance from Group A +205 (risk 0.328%)

Spain to advance from Group B -1110 (risk 0.917%)

Argentina to finish last in Group D +1800 (risk 0.053%)

Argentina NOT to advance from Group D +535 (risk 0.157%)

Argentina NOT to reach quarterfinal +125 (risk 0.444%)

Argentina NOT to reach final -515 (risk 0.837%)

Switzerland to finish last in Group E +350 (risk 0.222%)

South Korea Lowest Scoring Team in the World Cup +1200 (risk .077%)

Panama to advance from Group G +995 (risk 0.136%)

Colombia to finish last in Group H +660 (risk 0.197%)

Colombia NOT to advance from Group H +225 (risk 0.154%)

 

I will be fairly inactive for the first round of games except for totals or obvious plays. Otherwise, I find myself betting all of the same angles as my future bets. 

 

Good luck all

peace_5

Good to see you mr_b peace_5

 

I genuinely hate fading a corrupt, host nation but I convinced myself that is they are just too overrated here.

Add:

S Azmoun to score +375 (risk 0.055%)

S Azmoun to score first goal +800 (risk 0.105%)

 

Believe this will be more open than most think as both teams should be after 3 points based on the group. If Iran scores, Azmoun will be involved and very likely to be the scorer. Too good of odds to pass up.

Nigeria to win v Croatia +453 (risk 0.180%)

 

Both teams can score with potential to leak goals. Nigeria's direct style gives them good chances to catch a team like Croatia on the counter.

Added a bit to Mex/Ger under based on line movements. Also adding a small play on the Pan/Bel Draw based on play style - Panama will park the bus and Belgium will have to break it down; odds are very favorable.
