    i stuck 20 euros on russia to reach the final before a ball was kicked at 150/1.nice if it works out. top goal scorer could be any of 6 teams and any striker so that could be up in the air. holland and portugal look good at 20/1 for the final so that got my money, ribery got my euros as top goal scorer at 50/1.

    Where on Earth did you get Russia to reach the final at 150/1. They're 28/1 to win the whole thing on Betfair. Links or it didn't happen

    10 euro on Spain to win with Torres top scorer 17/1
    5 euro on Holland to reach the final
    5 euro on Portugal to reach the final

    i got it in the track bookmakers before a ball was kicked in the qualifiers, ireland were 100/1 so i really dont know were they get there numbers from, but as the saying goes never look a gift horse and all that.

    Holy flip that was a bit of a long shot, if they hadnt even qualified! Thought the odds would have been bit better to be honest!

    Not crazy odds as such, but I won over €500 on an accumulator when I stuck a tenner on, i.e. 50/1.
