Looks like great value now, 14's in places. :eek:

Really can't see him being the top scorer, tbh. I don't think the Dutch will go far enough in the tournament.

20 on Chile as group H winner - 11/2 (betfair) (damn)
20 on Argentina to get knocked out in the quarters - 13/5 (PP) (maybe)
20 on Germany 1st, Ghana 2nd in Group D - 7/2 (PP) (score)
20 on Fabiano to be top scorer - 12-1 (PP) (mabye)
20 on Holland to win - 12-1 (PP) (should of stuck with the Germans)

Are we gonna get an update at the end? I'm a very unlikely winner!

I think my tactic of lumping everything on Brazil to win the lot has proven rather wise.:)

Alright here goes (subject to change of course!) -

10 credits on Australia to be eliminated in the quarter finals - 10/1
20 on Group F to have the most goals - 6/1
20 on Conmebol to be the winning confederation - 9/4
20 on Group H - Spain 1st/Honduras 2nd - 7/1
30 on Forlan to be top scorer - 74/1

All odds from Betfair

My stake divided by four times 74 gives 555.

Profit of 455.
