Default World Cup Best Bets Friday 6/16

Lets get er goin!!!

Argentina to win (yes) 1 unit -152

Netherlands to win (yes) 1 unit +105

I'm really pondering going bigger on both - but Ivory Coast looks really good.
For now, a small betting day. Scares me that I have 2 big favorites.... Oh well.

Argentina are to short to back and i'd expect a tough encounter, similar to the Brazil/Croatia game. Either way i have no real angles to play here so i'll be watching this one.

A draw between the Ivory Coast and the Netherlands. Tough call i think. Keep expecting one of these African teams to do something spectacular (a la Cameroon). Damn pele and his predictions have got me all confused.

One thing that springs to mind is the fact that Mexico are quite a small team, speedy and skillful, but vulnerable in the air. Not sure if the Angolans would be the team for the job, but it could be a successful gameplan and perhaps something to keep in mind for the future.

Quiet night for me, think i'll sit these out and watch. Will probably get the itch later though and throw something on somewhere. What's that number again? 1800 - ????

Angola/Mex is just SCREAMING for a tie at +335.
I hate Mex so much, I can't touch them, though - to much emotion involved. Angola is a pretty solid club - a tie really wouldn't be much of a stretch to me.
