Hoping some of you all have been able to make money. This game has fully come alive so gonna watch and enjoy. Have another big play later and a stab at the next game which will be much tighter and lower scoring imo.
UPDATED RECORD: 13-3 (BIG PLAY: 4-1)
Let's also not forget how many lowlifes came into yesterday's thread to call out a mistake I had made. Some even trashing me for no reason. Just making mention b/c all I do is attempt to help people. I don't have to take the time to post but I think it's fun to share in the winnings. Many people who come in and comment certainly do not share those same sentiments nor contribute as much. So just be wary I will not win them all but I'm doing my best to handicap the Cup

I'm not going to play this upcoming game between the Ivory Coast and Ecuador only because the plays I would want to hammer are heavily juiced. I realize that doesn't translate into automatic wins but in some games there is little to leave to the imagination. And I think that's the case with both Ecuador and the Ivory Coast.
Both teams boast really good defenses and so it's an attractive play to go NO on BTTS but that's sitting at -165 which doesnt' scare me as much as trying to watch a game I hope will be a snooze fest. Because in my option there is a good chance this game could be the first 0-0 affair. The Ivory Coast after all did not give up a single goal during their qualifying.
But what really gets me is the tremendous love for Ecuador (and for good reason, they haven't lost since 2024 but they have DRAWN quite a bit!) and I am not sure they are quite as good as the hype they receive. The Ivory Coast does have some good pieces on offense but as mentioned, their own strength is their defense, as is that for Ecuador. Only four of Ecuador’s last 22 games have featured over 2.5 goals and only four of Ivory Coast’s last 21 competitive matches have seen both teams score, so probably not fair to expect a lot of goals here.
I see value in taking a shot with the Ivory Coast in the FH at +330. For a game in which both teams play tight and feature good defenses, no reason why one of them can't get a goal in the FH, and why not taking the one with better odds. This is NOT AN OFFICIAL PLAY but that's about all I see that I would take here, other than the DRAW given how much Ecuador have done so over the past couple of years.
Just too many unknowns on my end in this game. I will post a play on the next game and might do so sooner rather than later because I'm gonna get a bit busy in the evening.
Hope everyone is having a solid afternoon and enjoying their weekend. Be back shortly.

One last game and one last big play...truth be told, had the Senegal game stayed a draw I would have made a really huge return on a parlay. So it goes, heartbreak though I always knew it was a long shot (for sure was better off taking Ivory Coast FG not just first half). Oh well, on to the next...
This game will appear very different. The Swedes have lost only two of their 12 opening matches at prior World Cups (W5, D5) but they come into this limping from the results of the most recent friendlies. Good for them they get to face a Tunisia squad who have won only one of their 12 prior World Cup games against European opposition. Sweden rarely keeps a clean sheet and the Tunisians have been hemorrhaging goals at a very disturbing rate so I do think that there is a lot of value here in this game.
Sweden's line has slowly moved up but I don't think they should be that heavily favored in this encounter. I see a lively match and I do think that Tunisia will score, but I also feel that Sweden have enough firepower to make the Tunisian back line relent to the same play they have had of recent.
YES BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE (-105)
SWEDEN OVER 1.5 GOALS FG (+103)...HUGE PLAY!!!
I think we will get an entertaining and open game here between teams with two different styles of play. Since Sweden usually does very well in the opening rounds and Tunisia has always struggled in the Cup, especially vs. European competition, it's hard for me to see Sweden actually losing. But they haven't been playing that awesome so that is a bit of a worry. Now they get a porous Tunisian defense that didn't give up a goal against African nations during qualifying but that says very little to me as the Swedish attack is much better. I think the Swedes get 3 in this game and that's enough for me to try and hammer this play.
As always, tail or fade, good luck to all...

Certainly can. I looked at that too. And Sweden to win. Just don’t want to overdo it and those plays are safest bc if they don’t hit imo we are looking at a 0-0 or 1-0 type of game. That also won’t get us over. I guess that’s why I put a small amount on the longshot odds of sweden going over 2.5 themselves. Unless Tunisia completely surprises me which they won’t.
