obviously, they're getting pounded with one sided action, I mean the whole nation is going to bet one way.

For example, the guys in Brazil would have been destroyed in the 1st two games, but would have come back big time if they kept taking action.

Same is true for all the passionate countries. Maybe the guys in Costa Rica can;t complain though. :thumbsup:

do they hope for draws?

anyhow, do they take action? or can they pass on national team games?

At the end of the day, they are cleaning up.
England is always a much heavier favorite than they should be.

Brazil -2.5 goals vs North Korea and -1 vs Portugal. Bookies cleaned up. They cleaned up on also that took the Samba Kings again today.

they either clean up of get destroyed, there's no middle ground

if a guy usually has 50k action split, he probably looking at 75k to 5k.

I'm not talking about winning or losing, I'm talking about risk.

why wouldn't the bookie in Brazil shade his country big time and then lay off with the bookie in England?

I love the university of Hawaii.....this is where i was born and grew up....i'm a UH alumni, and I want nothing but the best for my school


however, money is money.....i bet against uh just as much as I bet with them......i actually lose more on UH games than other teams because my view is too biased....don't think my locals feel a hit from local teams playing



however, soccer fans have huge hearts and tiny brains so maybe the same doesn't hold true with these guys

if he's set up to hedge, that would be a great option

but you know he's going to pay up front, and then he'll probably have to chase some of what he's owed

A smart local would jack the price on the home team and layoff at much better odds.
