    I have no idea what I'm doing.

    For talks sake, if I put a tenner on Argentina in the first match, I'd get 11.43 back (including the tenner I bet), does all of that then go on to the next game or just the 1.43?

    I was thinking that if I done it that way, if all three teams win my return would be 77.59 after a total 'stake' of 48.10, but I'd really only be betting a tenner to begin with?

    The 11.43 goes onto Germany and if they win you have 15.24 (Germany are 1/3) and then the 15.24 goes onto Bosnia at 10/11 so if they win you get back 29.09.

    The treble/accum pays 1.9/1 and you get your tenner back too

    When betting with dockets on a Saturday afternoon, you have to smell of drink, smoke a Major and write out your bets with one of those little bookie pens.

    This might be a stupid question but how would you go about winning the most money in today's games by placing a bet?

    What do you write on the betting slip?

    Say if I go with Argentina, Germany and Bosnia to win. Do I just write down 'accumulator' or what to have the winnings from the first game placed on the second game and so on? :o

    That you Bernard? :D

    Iran should be 2 up at this stage and are still 11-1 to win the match worth a sneaky fiver

    Would this fucking Messi hyperbole ever stop? If that was anyone else they wouldn't be half as excited over that goal, there was nothing too special about his goal against Bosnia ffs.

    Messi is GOD.

    On an unrelated matter there is no Allah is probably what them poor Iranians are thinking, football is never over until it's over.

    The Iranians deserved something out of that. Despite having money on Argentina I still would have liked to see a draw there in the end.

    It was like watching Ireland that match, bravery and spirit is not enough (appalling cliche coming up) - it's about sticking it the net and Iran didn't take their chances and were punished.

    That's usually what happens when I bet on something. If I'd have put money on the teams playing against Ireland in the qualifiers we'd probably have made it to the finals!

    Jaysus, was not expecting a draw. I thought that would be an easy win for Germany. Seriously underestimated Ghana. What a second half!!

    Ghana fully deserved a point. I just wished that they could've got the three.

    Just looking at some of these stadiums, ones without walls and roofs on the stands. Wondering if this was a design feature, or with all the rumours if the organisers/builders did not have time to add them.

    Wonder will they even use all of them again, that one in the Amazon Basin where the English played their first game probably wont be used again too much after this is over.
