The World Cup (not quite a) Sweepstake 2018

[Lemonade Money]

My total outlay was $5 and won $6.55 for a 31% return.

Tell me what bet(s) [1,2,3 or 4] to put the winnings and I'll update.

Good work @johnola

Did you say that with gritted teeth?

Tell me what bet(s) [1,2,3 or 4] to put the winnings and I'll update.

Bet 1: bet $2, won $2.02
Bet 2: bet $1, won $1.40
Bet 3: bet $1, won $1.33
Bet 4: bet $1, won $1.80

Bet 1: bet $2, won $2.02
Bet 2: bet $1, won $1.40
Bet 3: bet $1, won $1.33
Bet 4: bet $1, won $1.80

That puts you in third place overall with '1.31', and leading the golden boot. I'll upload again when @El Guepardo reveals how many times VAR was used in his match bet!

Woo hoo!

So what happens next? Even if @milo assigns us new teams, he'd have to assign again after the round of 16, and again after the quarters, etc. Do we just make it a free-for-all?

There were two 5 bets in an attachment? And one 10 bet outstanding.

These are the bets I’ve done, so 6 in total with 1 of those 6 a chf10 bet still unsettled.

I'm happy to keep doing draws if people want new teams

I'd make it a free-for-all. It's easier that way.

Less than the required twice. As I’ve just checked.

Round of 16 bets

...

 

[johnola]

I would put a bet on England beating Columbia on penalties but can’t find that on offer.

Actually found it with betfair which have 40/1 odds for newbies (I am not a newbie so my odds were a derisory 23/20 so didn’t bother).

But my Mexico to be eliminated in the last 16 came in.

Can we do this as Saudi Arabia went a long time back and I feel like getting winnings with another team instead.
