OGs don't count in first goalscorer comps, usually.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Yes, noted Argentina striker, Serge Agurerio. Luckily I've checked the ticket and he said that he'll pay out anyway and it's on record as Aguero

[Colly]

I got an email yesterday from Bet Butler (Derek Llambias' betting company, I signed up for a free bet which they hadn't properly stated was a matched free bet, so never used them) advertising odds on Naymar for first goalscorer as a headline offer. Con artists.

[9 to 5]

Knew I should have gone with the lower odds on Neymar first scorer on my Scorecast instead of Fred :-/

I feel that exact same pain.

[Baddar]

Hernandez & Mexico 1-0, 20/1

Mexico 2-0, 17/2

Mexico 2-1, 17/2

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

Just stuck a quid on Cameroon 2-0 by half time, doubtful but thought I'd throw it on. Wanted Hernandez as the last goal scorer but can't seem to find that on Bet365.

Van Persie to score at anytime and 1-1 against Spain - 20/1

Vidal first scorer against Australia - 7/1

Holland/Spain draw and Chile to win - 4/1

Last goalscorer is sometimes under the same tab as first goalscorer. I don't use 365 so I can't say if it is but worth a look.

Yeah I had a look but for some reason they won't let you bet on players who are on the bench, the only available options for any type of goal scorer now the games under way are the one's currently on the field, unless I'm blindly missing something. Seems a bit shit but ah well, watch him score the winner now

[Dynamite]

I saw it before the match at either 6/1 or 7/1. I'd back him as next scorer in-play as soon as he comes off the bench and it should be around the same odds.

[Cheeky Hughes]

My bet of Peralta and 2-1 is still on, thanks to this ref!

[Dynamite]

I have Mexico to win and over 4.5 yellows, which isn't looking likely because of this ref!

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

I'm gonna go in for an accumulator next I think.

Spain vs Netherlands

Chile vs Australia

Colombia vs Greece

Uruguay vs Costa Rica

England vs Italy

Ivory Coast vs Japan

The website calculator tells me that should turn £1 into £100. Can already see how it'll go though; I'll get the first 5 right, go to bed, then wake up and find Japan have fucked it up for me.

[Thrilla]

Have a triple of Mexico, Spain and Chile. Feel that that should be fairly doable given the result in the first game.

[9 to 5]

Signed up to Coral on the promise of a new customer only offer of Argentina to beat Bosnia at 4/1. Couldn't resist that action.

[Starvinho]

A nice £105 won off the Colombia/Greece game. Had £25 on Colombia win and over 2.5 goals at 16/5. Thinking of having the same bet in the next game but for Uruguay.

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

Lost every bet yesterday and today is going the same way. Had a few Acca's (one's still alive) and Cavani to score at anytime and 2-0, which has already lost.

Chiellini first scorer - 28/1

Gervinho to score anytime and Japan to win 2-1 - 35/1

Okazaki to score anytime and 2-2 draw - 25/1

At the rate I'm going so far I might as well just throw the money down the drain.

And that's why I gave up betting.

[Chael P. Sonnen]

£2 bet that could resolve in winnings of £593 with

Italy beatin Engerland

Ivory Coast beating Japan.

Ecuador to hopefully beat Switzerland

France to beat Honduras

Germany to beat Portugal

and the Argies to beat Bosnia.

Along with Nigeria beating Iran and Belgium beating Algeria.
