Absolutely. Congrats on your winnings

IIRC Ireland didn't cover the cap vs Canada so that's 3 straight games where Ireland haven't covered the cap.

same for NZ

None of the favourites have beaten the handicap in any of the games I've followed, and I've followed most of the games.



When you see a good price, you have to take it; Italy were 7 points down with 12 minutes to go. No brainer.
I could've cashed out for €200 when O'Mahony was sinbinnned, but I went for the jackpot :pac: No regrets though

Absolutely, that was a very good bet. There was definitely greater than a circa 1.5% chance that Italy would get the try to level it. Think I'd probably have cashed out myself though I must admit. 150 profit would have been a great return.

And don't even pretend you were cheering on Ireland in those last 12 minutes. I certainly wouldn't have been!

Different strokes for different folks. A couple of Euros @70/1 yes, but €50 was a bit reckless as Italy would not only needed to have scored a try but scored it in a kickable position.

sydthebeat

Italy (-13.0) @ 10/11

Australia (-7.0) @ 10/11

England (-61.0) @ 10/11

Ireland (-2.0) @ 10/11

acca @ approx 12 / 1

Alright lads, threw a speculative accum on at start of summer over a few sporting events and am waiting on nz to win the wc for 900 euro from 25 quid bet, not that knowledgeable on rugby should I let it ride or maybe cover it ? Wouldn't mind locking in a bit of profit , any advice on this ? Cheers.

Well folks have held back on doing anything on this , anyone have opinions now that the groups are finishing up?

to be fair, neil gave you a great response last time you put this up

if you cant cash out, youre better off hedging

Couldnt be easier Fuzzy, just lay New Zealand on betfair, uts up to you how much you want them to win you. They're about 2.32 to lay so you could get 200 quid out of them and sacrifice 264 euro. So you win 636 if new zealand win and 175 if they dont? As I said its completely up to you how much you sacrifice and how much profit you bank, you're in a great position now though.

Yeah he did and I was very grateful it's just the tournament hadn't started then so thought now people might have some better ideas about each team now the groups are almost over !

Paddy power enhanced special, rugby & football team to both win 8/1.

Dunno about the football team decisions, decisions

PP are going to make a small fortune off that bet today I reckon.
