Ghana Portugal Over 2.5 goals is free money

Ghana needs to win by 2 to have any chance imo

Portugal needs to win by 4 or more probably

So both teams pressing from the opening whistle, and even with a 1-0 lead both teams still pressing.

Portugal probably has a shot if Germany buries USA by 2-3, but they would still need to win by a couple....

Its -165, but its free money

Over 2.5 is -210 at Bovada. That's expensive even for free money.

I played it at -175 at SB a bit ago.

Kod alert!! Nugs just bet an under!

Good thing I locked in some profit.

 

[got_nugs]

The Sacramento Kings will select Nik Stauskas with the No. 8 pick, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

Does this impact the UM/MSU bet?

 

[Tiger Fan]

Boom

 

[TheGooRoo]

Not liking the Mcdermott trade, I had Shabazz going to Chi.

#### Gave back all my draft winnings so far with the Napier slide.

 

[Frostillicus]

Boom.

 

[Celph Titled]

HEEEY YOOUUU GUUUUYSSSS!!!

 

[swirvenirvin]

should be fun drinking all day and playing golf tomorrow, will be sure to update tomorrow afternoon before I pass out

 

[regularguy]

Glad some of you won on Napier. I was in at 21.5 and 23.5. I saw a couple of places put it back up today at 16.5/17.

 

[Frostillicus]

Seemed easy.

There's a reason they never put it back up (assuming you're talking about the over 2.5 seniors). Horrible line. The more I thought the heavier I wanted to hit it but they pulled it pretty quickly.

Ron Dayne running all over Michigan on the Big Ten Network right now.

 

[The Ref]

And Chris Chambers just dropped the most wide open alone in the endzone pass I've ever seen.

 

[The Ref]

Now the commentators are saying how much more potential Drew Henson has then the other QB Michigan had at the time. This is Gold.

I had season tickets that year...I was always saying things like "why the #### is Brady in there?"

 

[Leroy Hoard]

USA less of a dog than they were against Germany. Around 7-2 to win, 5-2 to draw.

should I still burn up my USA future bet?

I never said that. I said to flush it down the toilet.

might be better to 'lock in some profit'

Interesting. Betus has Stage of Elimination odds up....Round of 16 for Belgium is +175 and Round of 16 for the US is +225. So bet the same amount on both and lock in profit?

that US line makes no sense since they are an underdog and expected to lose this game. might as well bet that alone.

I posted this question in the WC thread, but here is probably better.

Can anyone explain the following question related to soccer betting?

What do the lines +/- 1/4, 1/2 or 3/4 mean?

For example: the money line (regulation and stoppage only) on Columbia is -101. Columbia -1/2 (again, reg + stoppage only) is also -101 which makes sense.

However, Costa Rica money line is +155 but Costa Rica -1/4 is +115.

What does -1/4 mean?

Soccer can be fun and exciting to wager on. For example, in MLS soccer if you bet the Red Bulls +2, you are “getting” 2 goals. So if the Red Bulls win the game, draw or lose by 1 goal, you win. If they lose by 3 goals, you lose the bet. :( If they lose by exactly 2 goals the bet is a push, and you get your money back!

The “point spread” can be any number that a sportsbook thinks will attract an even number of bets on each side. The line can be a whole number like 1 or 2, or a half a number like ½ or 1½.

You will have to pay a price (or odds) to bet on the spread. For example, if the price is -110, this means that you would have to bet $110 to win $100, but you don’t have to bet $110. You can bet any amount you want!

that Chainsaw post was the exact opposite of helpful

I think if you google '1/4 lines in soccer' you'll find an explanation but my work blocks the links so I can't be sure.

 

[The Ref]

The best bet is to skip all this footy nonsense and start to look at week one NCAA.

I can't tell if it was schtick or not.I believe the 1/4, 3/4 lines are such that half your bet goes on each end of the range. If you bet a team -0.25, half of your bet is at -0.5 and half is at pk. Think of it as an average. Just a way to make 2 bets in one.

Underdogs get plus money, no?

Are you sure it's not Belgium -175? I'm guessing they've probably fixed it by now.

plus money to be eliminated? no

maybe I don't understand the bet he's referring to. I thought it was saying what round would each team be eliminated in.

I don't do betus so who knows? The "stage of elimination" is just what FIFA calls this round so I'd think the odds would be to win the round.

Flopping it around the other way would be almost as weird as liking Kale and disliking broccoli.

The way they have it listed its 100/225 if the US lose and 100/175 if Belgium lose. Seems like an obvious mistake to me.

I apologize for wording it incorrectly. It should be if the US doesn't advance to the next round its 100/225 and if Belgium doesn't advance to the next round it's 100/225.
