So as we all think we are smarter than the TAB, this can be the place where we publicly prove it.
Post your tips and thoughts (or guesses) in here.
At the moment the best value for me looks to be Spain to win at $7.50. Not often the best team in the world is going to be paying so much.
Just opened a bet365 account and downloaded their app. Could be very dangerous, as it's just so easy and live betting odds are good. Also got first credit doubled so there's a bit to play with. Already made a bit on the NBA playoffs and last night's origin which has set me up nicely with available funds for World Cup (back on topic!)
A big tip......
Whatever team I pick, wont win. A dead set cert!
Think Colombia could cause some trouble if they can get out of their group likewise Uruguay (if Saurez is fit) so I might pop a few $ on them and maybe Belgium , especially with the TAB offering bet refunds if spain win
australia under 1.5 world cup points at $1.45 looks like free money to me.

$1 on Brazil to win 3-1 with Neymar first to score and a cool $40 return! :)
I've put $64 in my TAB account. Play one $1 bet on each game. Lost out picking a draw today. But have Mexico to win ($2.20), Spain by 2 goals ($5.25), and Chile by -1 ($2.15 is a licence to print money.)
Current tally: -$20
The bloke at the TAB conned me into entering some competition because he knew i would be a regular during the World Cup. Bye bye savings.
Three for me, and two for them.

I rarely bet, only really on special events like this. Had an old TAB account I opened for the last World Cup when they had that promotion giving you $20 for signing up for the World Cup. Not used it since the rugby World Cup so stuck $50 in it yesterday to have a bit of go during this.
Put $5 on "Bet of the Day" which was Neymar to score first and Brazil to win 2-0 @ 15.00 so that didn't work out. Also stuck a fiver on Neymar @11.00 and Higuain @ 20.00 for top scorer. Put $1 on Chile to beat Australia 5-0 @ 50.00 for tomorrow.

I find you can get some good value on multi bets on go will qualify from the pools especially with some tight groups

I'll be watching your predictions with a lot of interest.
I've had a fiver on a goal to be scored within the first 27 minutes in the Brazil game, the Chile game, the Uruguay game, and the Ivory Coast game. Pays around $2 each match so it's been a good bet so far! (Also would have come through in the Spain game and the Colombia game).

Didn't you once put $1000 on Argentina to beat the ABs? #
Honduras paying $10 for win against the French and $4.75 for the draw.Both could be good bets given how the frech implodede in 2010

But French generally switch from great to implosion, this time around should be great ;-)

This bet has come through in 7 of the 9 games so far, and you wouldn't be surprised if it came through in today's other two games as well.
also gonna bet on Thursday Netherlands beat Australia 5-0
I LOVE LAMP
Poor start from foal

16 Jun 2014 - Iran v Nigeria - Anytime Goalscorer - Emmanuel Emenike @ 2.50
Nigeria -2 corners @ 3.00
Iran v Nigeria - Match Handicaps - Nigeria -1 goal @ 3.25

actually turned a little profit by going larger on corners than the other 2 bets.
Ghana vs the seppos - I just haven't got a clue on this one. Going with the following
Over 2.5 goals @2.20
Over 12 corners @4.00
ATTS Jordan Ayew @ 4.33
ATTS Clint Dempsey @ 3.75
Get ready for a 1-0 to someone.

Had Germany but Ronaldo to score plus multi Germany -> Nigeria.
Not my best day of the cup so far.
My best start has come from Muller golden boot. Early days, but he made a good start this morning. Was at $30 odds before the start of WC.
Got on Croatia before this morning to qualify from group at 3.75. Pretty good odds I though

Had two bets on the England-Uruguay game, one on Rooney scoring and one on it ending a draw. Was pleased when Rooney levelled it but Gerrard let the second bet slip by playing Suarez onside for the winner..
Chile qualifying equals good money
Japan-Greece draw is good for IC bets
almost certain to collect on England not making last 16

Went for a Iran/Ghana/Nigeria/Russia/Algeria multi, paying $10,000. Come on the underdogs.
$400 return multibet still going....some nervous moments though especially yesterday trying to follow Costa Rica v Greece game at work.
I've put $64 in my TAB account. Play one $1 bet on each game. Lost out picking a draw today. But have Mexico to win ($2.20), Spain by 2 goals ($5.25), and Chile by -1 ($2.15 is a licence to print money.)
Have turned the $64 into $84.20 so far.
Nice. I'm hopeless at this and only managed the one win so far which was Brazil to beat Chile on penalties. Multi for the 8 teams to progress from the 2nd round only made it to the third game thanks to those 2 late Netherlands goals. Went for Brazil/Colombia/Mexico/Costa Rica/France/Germany/Argentina/USA.
Kind of glad it didn't make it to the last game tomorrow having chosen the underdog as that would have hurt.
I see on tab twitter acc someone put $500 on both of this mornings games to be 0-0 at the end of normal time. return a cool $50,000!! I'm so crap at betting it's not funny!
Still up Rm 200 (via illegal bookie) ....need to legalize gambling here !!
