I am not juror but I will say heck no it is not a lock.

Spain not to lose on Wednesday was a lock and see how that turned out. Germany are also generally a "big force in football, they must win, right?" square pick.

What plays do you guys like tomorrow?

I dont get it...does a draw win with that bet? or push?

It means half your money is on PK line and half on -0.5

If the game draws you lose half the amount you wagered.

^ As above but in more detail, you are essentially placing two separate bets at two different spreads. At pk and -0.5:

1) You lose both bets with a Germany loss (since the -0.5 and the pk both lost)
2) With a draw, you push the pk (since it neither covered nor lost) and lose the -0.5
3) With any Germany win you win both bets (since you covered both the -0.5 and the pk

Nothing is a lock in the WC stage but its not a bad play. I heard alot of talk of how Serbia was going to be tough this year, nah uh, I never believed it for a second that's why I have Ghana to go through. I would play it.

why am I seeing some games that open with MLs both +money...
for instance
USA +105
Solvenia +300
?????

is this just SBRlines making a boo-boo?

 

[Mudcat]

I would assume it is 3 way betting and you must also consider the draw. i.e. bets on both sides would lose in the event of a draw.

[pico]

wow, usa drawed also. this world cup is like the nba finals...pretty unpredictable...except argentina

 

[senco78]

what happens in the title game if theres a draw?

is there no sudden death in soccer?

why not have free kicks at the end of regulation until someone wins?
