Cape Verde would be the greatest upset in the history of sports.










And there's no close second.

Should be sub-Saharan Africa’s last day

Egypt-Australia I have no read on. Feel like it could go either way

Zero matches I feel compelled to watch compared to yesterday which was a full slate.

Might catch Colombia v Ghana due to old scars.

Well it shouldn't be, but they let all their leads slip away.

After watching the Croatia game I don’t see how anybody could think these games are not a complete scam.

Is Salah going to score today??? Best opinion? I can cashout for 2k on a 10 leg goal scorer parlay or let it ride for a 4k-5k cashout if Salah scores.

Think that’s a bit of an exaggeration

Probably biggest upset in World Cup history though.

There may be more Argentines in Miami than BA at this point. Place should be rocking.

5 Brazil vs 16 USA

3 Spain vs 26 Egypt or 28 Austrailia

Would that be good?

If not take the 2k!

If the moment isn’t to big for Cape Verde they will give the Argentines all they can handle

I can dump money into a counter bet but no to the direct hedge.

6$ bet to win $23,000..... (10) Leg goalscorer.

Only 2 legs left: Salah (1) goal and Messi (2) goals.

Cashout doubled from $900 to $1,900 after Oysrzabal. I'd imagine it definitely breaks $4,000 with a Salah goal. And if Messi even scores once in the 1st half it would be ridiculous..

But the current guaranteed off $6 is hard to pass up at the moment.

Anyone pulling for Mexico is not a true USA fan.

Why pull for a team and fan base that throws stuff at our players and fans and plays incredibly dirty against us?

I don’t care if they are our neighbors or not, I want Azteca to look like Brazil vs Germany.

damn.. nice picks

fyi - Form W-2G: Sportsbooks must send you and the IRS a Form W-2G if your net winnings are $600 or more on a single wager and are at least 300 times the amount of your bet.

I don’t mean to burst your bubble, but thought you should know this is currently triggered unless it falls below $1800 (and even then, they might still file it)

It also might be state specific.. look it up

As for hedge or not.. there’s a decent chance that might pay out the $23k

What are the odds on a $1900 wager right now for those 2 to score? (looks like 7-1 to me, and you are getting 12-1 if my math is right)

I've already hedged about $2,000 in winnings on Salah + Egypt so I plan to get my $4,000 if it plays out.

Its tough to cash that out when Salah could score within 5 min but I'd hate myself if he doesn't score.

Can you cash out once the game has started?

If so, I’d let it go for at least the half, and then probably the hydration break. Then, I’d get out if he hasn’t scored.

Yeah, you’ll lose some, but you gotta at least give him a chance to keep it going.. unless you need the money.. and if so, do what’s best for you and yours..

Just my two cents..
