Damn, it wasn’t meant to be for Goias 

@chaka1

At least you broke even. I originally wanted to go with only both teams to score and over 0.5,1 first half. But I changed it up last minute. Oh well 

Live Minnesota vs. Chicago 

2nd H O 1.5 -141 (0-1)

Live Estudiantes vs. Velez Sarsfield

O 1.5 -151 (0-1)

Looking good. I had live BTTS at half. So I will be rooting for a 2nd Minny goal. I parlayed that with the NY Liberty ML -125 as soon as they announced A'sia Wilson was out. I mostly bet this as a hedge to my Las Vegas Aces +4 bet. If there is a gambling god the Liberty win by 1-4. Either way I am making money. Just love to hog it on this one. BOL tonight! Can't wait for summer to be over (partly because I live in Phoenix and it is like living on the sun right now) and so EPL can start up again. What is your favorite league to bet on? Looking forward to your plays in the late summer/fall.

I was hesitant to make this bet because of the red card. All it would take is Chicago parking the bus and somehow playing for penalties. God, I hope it doesn’t come to that. Good luck with the Liberty tonight!

And I can relate to that Phoenix heat. Used to live in Tucson back in the day and it was a scorcher. But I live in South Florida now and deal with crazy humidity. So I can’t escape the heat. Nothing was as bad as living in Tallahassee though. Over 100 degrees in the summer with 80%+ humidity and no gulf breeze. Just pure swamp life.

My best league is typically Liga Portugal. So, I’ll be happy once top flight starts back up 

Extra Time of course

@AdVesper

Sorry. I think your assessment about cautiously playing for ET or PKs was valid. Sadly.  Tucson ehhh. Birthplace of the chimichanga! The Portugal League has won me a lot of money and lost me tons too! Back when I was a more serious better ($1-10k) a bet wasn’t uncalled of I chased Sporting Lisbon to score more times than I can count. Going to be sad to see Viktor Gyokeres leave Lisbon. Always wanted to see him in Green and White play Porto. Just never got it done.

Convenient that Minnesota scores instantly in ET. Ugh

@jesron1269

It’s actually kinda funny. Sporting is my most disliked squad since I was born a Benfica fan. So I’m actually happy that he’ll be leaving Lisbon lol. But I’m glad you made a lot of dough out of them. That league explodes in 2nd halves. Love the goal bonanzas from Porto, Sporting, and Benfica when they’re down at halftime  

@AdVesper

That is understandable. Portugal is top of my list of places to visit next in Europe. Got to see a few EPL matches my last trip to the UK. Also got to see a Celtic match. Planning a trip to Mexico City to see Club America take on Cruz Azul later in the season.  

@jesron1269

Portugal is beautiful. I grew up in the Azores. So I’m more in tune with island life than mainland Portugal. But you’re bound to run into scenic spots, great food, friendly culture, and gorgeous beaches along the coastal cities. So I can definitely vouch for Iberia.

A trip to Mexico City and seeing those 2 legendary clubs face off will be an experience. It’s gotta be one of the best atmospheres. Hope it’s a memorable trip!

Calling it a night. Didn’t get to post San Jose ML. But I’ll make up for my nightly collapse tomorrow.
