It's not so much the ads for me, it's the 'tipsters' that are showing off their profits over recent spells. That's winnings that you were never involved in, the temptation is there to jump on the bandwagon, yet naturally the luck is about to turn and it's going to be loss after loss after loss...

Should really just chuck Twitter. Lots of great advice on there, but it ties into those gut v logic decisions that the Guardian article hints at, and for all the will in the world you're going to get those decisions wrong the majority of the time.

In fairness i consider most of those tipsters as ads anyway. Most big ones are paid by certain companies to consistently yse their websites for these bet builders etc, i know one personally and know he gets a substantial payment from a certain Irish betting company to posy tips using their website, betting the money he recieves so its effectively no risk betting for them. Gets given money to bet with, posts his decent wins after the fact and then posts obvious bet builders that get you almost nothing in return and give it thr "any win is a win" chat.

Betting should be open to all over 18, maybe 21, but it shouldnt br advertised whether thats TV ads, billboards, football ads, internet, youtube or tipsters.

Out of their first two games.

I've picked 20 group games with odds at 2902/1 and stuck £10 on. Being honest, if I get a handful of them coming in early doors and get a decent cash-out option, I'll probably take it and Christmas is covered!

First 2 are today: England to beat Iran, Netherlands to beat Senegal. :greengrin

Harry Kane one shot on target evens

I went for Saka to get a 3rd shot on target instead thankfully

5er ew Sterling, lost about 9p! 😠

Jeez, watching Kane is absolutely bloody infuriating. Even just wanting him to mildly look a goal threat and he spent pretty much the whole game - bar the assist - swanning about in midfield, at left back...

The glaikit looking **** just screwed my bet. I just needed him anytime goal scorer, for my acca.

1/20 so far - I actually think my pick of the Netherlands to beat Senegal could be my trickiest one of the 20! My ignorance of Senegal might bite me.

Two decent teams on show here. Not sure Holland would be one of my sure things.

Done 9 myself.

Tomorrow.
Argentina. 2/11.
Denmark. 11/20.
France. 2/7.
Weds .
Belgium. 1/2.
Spain .1/7.
Thurs .
Brazil. 1/2
Friday
England 8/15 .
Netherlands 4/6
Sat .
Argentina . 1/2 . Ten quid on ,pays back 232 .

i'm one up with my 15-fold for a paltry return of £2,752 only 14 to go :greengrin

Senegal v Netherlands is not one of them, i thought this game would be just too close to call

Thank you PP for my £5 free bet builder on the England game. :wink:

Senegal aren't half a team of cheating, time-wasting ****s :rolleyes:

Had a couple quid of gakpo to score and gueye to get booked. £37 back. Saves depositing for a couple days!

Neco Williams 4/1 to be carded for Wales. USA have decent pace and Williams likes to fly into challenges. Good price IMO

Bale goal
Mckennie yelly

£10 wales next goal @2/1

Cheers mate. Been having a bit of success this season with that bet builder format.

1x goalscorer
1x yellow card (often take the goalscorer for this too)
Btts or both teams to get bookings.

👏🏻

Good game for bet builders although the ref quite randomly stopped booking folk towards the end!

Loving the big bets with many teams.

I think Denmark or Germany is my risky one's for my 11 fold 28-1 £30 bet with £896 returns.

I put the 8 group winners also this morning with a 30-1 odds and £15 pound, £5 was from my free bet so just a tenner.

England
Netherlands
Argentina
France
Belgium
Spain
Brazil
Portugal

£483 returns.

Kane was evens for a goal or an assist on skybet but never risked a quick double up.

De Paul booking
Martinez goal

I’ve done this as well but went with Germany over Spain, 33/1 start of tournament.

Had messi and Martinez and shot on target each half today at 3s bust at halftime with all those offside goals, treble knackered for the day as well

The bookie has bashed me today
