    Nice one.

    Edit thought that was the first card, but still can't complain 3/4!


    Yeah, happy with that. :)
    Doubt they'll be offering those prices on Alonso in the next match.

    Can't believe a Spanish player managed to get booked first.
    Damn you Ramos :mad:

    Spain vs Portugal

    If you look at Spain's results in the World Cup:
    1-0 vs Portugal (16th finals)
    1-0 vs Paraguay (1/4 finals)
    1-0 vs Germany (semi finals)
    then 1-0 vs Holland after extra time

    Spain beat Germany 1-0 in the final of the Euro 2008.

    In this Euro, Spain won:
    1-0 vs Croatia
    2-0 vs France (could've finished 1-0 though)

    Portugal lost 1-0 vs Germany

    I've gone for:
    Spain to win 1-0, 2-0 or 3-0 @ 2.65

    edit: even better:
    Spain to win and under 2.5 goals in the game @ 3.30

    Not sure at all what to do with the game tonight. I reckon England will win but I'm not overly confident....

    Thinking of taking a punt on him for FGS @14/1

    Gone for BTTS in the England game. Can see them getting 1 but can also see Italy scoring 11/10 pp.


  • Registered Users Posts: 385 ✭✭deano546


    PP's 2 enhanced bets today are:
    Rooney to score anytime and England to win in 90 mins. 9/2
    Or, England to win on penalties 11/1
    http://www.paddypower.com/bet/powerplay/enhanced-football-special?ev_oc_grp_ids=273706
    If you had to pick one of them which would you pick, I'm leaning towards the 1st one but not sure.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,583 ✭✭✭skeleton_boy


    Small stake on the game to be decided on penos @ 9/2

    4 fold of Germany/Spain/Portugal/Italy
    All win in 90 minutes.

    Worked out @12'ish

    Not too high hopes for that though as I cant remember a Euro 1/4 final round where none of the matches went into ET.

    But it was the loyalty bonus of bet365 that i put on it.

    Need to find a way to secure profit here.
    Obvious thing is England to qualify @1.9

    Could use the free in game bet of bet365 for that but then i need a safe-as-possible pre game bet.
    Over 0.5 goals in the match @1.12 to activate the free bet and the only risk i run not to make profit is a 0-0 and then Italy to qualify via ET or penalties.

    There has been no 0-0 yet in the tournament and that scares me....

    Anyone any better ideas?

    had that bet on germany 3.4 and spain 3.1 in the quarters. Definately the way to go in the spain portugal match.

    Would it not be easier to just lay Italy on Betfair? There would be no risk involved so you wouldn't have to worry about the result of the match.

    dont see value in either. 90%+ of those enhancements are mug bets.

    this game could well end in a scoreless draw in normal time. Seen someone mention under 3.5 second half goals as the first bet obviously which would be a good way to go.

    the most obvious way to lock in a profit (as italy winning in et or penos loses with your original idea) is to bet the exact opposite of your original bet - lay italy in normal time on betfair.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7 markvighan


    Second quarterfinal of Euro 2012 that could go either way will be played today between England and Italy in Ukraine and might be the first match that could go into extra time or even penalties because there isn't any significant difference between the two sides.
    Still at this moment I rate a better side England and see them to advance in the next round because their new manager has managed to do what last one didn't, namely to make his team to play as a team and make the players put a smile on their face and don't be constantly under pressure of making something bad and let down one more time the team.
    Agree Italy is not a bad team but has at this moment more weaker spots then England and although is seen by the bookie as small favorite I expect Rooney and Gerrard to help their team to reach in the semifinals.

    Problem with that is that i looked into Betfair a few times in the past.
    And i just dont get it....

    My problem is that i am not a native English speaker. Not a problem so much in general but when stuff gets too technical i rather give up before i **** up.

    you will figure betfair out in 30 minutes and it is definately worth the effort. Its not 'technical' or difficult. Just stick on a few e2 bets and lays and you will get it.

    Is Spain to win and under 2.5 goals available on PP? You can't combine them separately.

    Yeah, go to "all other markets" and its "Spain to win and 1 or 2 goals in the match". Same thing as spainand under 2.5 goals. Its 5/2.

    Italy to win, Over 10 corners Card Index:Over 50 pts @ 9/1


  • Registered Users Posts: 442 ✭✭kev250


    I took under 50 points card index


  • Registered Users Posts: 186 ✭✭EDudder


    Just seen that enhanced bet - England to win on penalties at 11/1. Is it just me or are they TERRIBLE odds.

    Surely predicting that a match will go to penalties and then predicting the winner is well over 11/1.


  • Registered Users Posts: 19 Aoifs2707


    Saw on William Hill, England to score in both half's i s 9/2 is that worth putting a tenner on?
