Trading Room Event: Holland v Uruguay
Message boardPublished: 06 Jul 10, By Profit Swing
Good evening it is the semi final of the World Cup and you really would not want to miss it would you?6.55
Ok everybody we have quite a few pre game trades to get on before the start so lets get cracking.The result that I fancy is a tight Holland win 1-0 or 2-0 but with this World Cup you had better prepare for strange things occuring.Is anybody else willing Uraguay out after the cheating good (not like when Lineker dived against Cameroon) er anyway lets crack on.
6.58
Lets have £14@6 Holland 1-0 and £10@7.8 on Holland 2-0.
Then lets have our trade offs and insurances £5@20 on Uraguay to win both halves and finally for now £4@15.5 on half time score 1-1.We still have £14 to trade with if needs be.
7.10
Right hopefully everyone is on returning to the earlier cheating point if we had a similar rule to Rugby ie a penalty goal then Ghana would be through but of course this is Fifa and that would make sense.
I expect this to be very cagey early on as that is how both teams have been playing so far.
7.45
The Dutch lead with one of the finest strikes you will ever see from Van Bronkhurst or anyone for that matter.It has been a fairly level game lets see how Uraguay react they may have to throw a few more men forward now.
8.05
Forlan scores a cracker for 1-1 if it stays this way till half time we have a nice profit.
8.15
Well we are £34 up which is great and this lucks a difficult game to call from here on in.I just favour Uraguay but what might happen is that both sides become wary and it plays out till extra time.The Dutch have a horrendous record on penalties so may be the more aggressive and try and win it if it came to extra time.
8.20
One further bet £6@8.4 on Uraguay to win 2-1 it looks massively overpriced as there looks nothing between the teams and Forlan is in much better form than Van Persie.I think it is worth risking £6 of our profits.
9.20
Holland win 3-2 but we still have a nice £28 profit on the night.See you tomorrow for the second semi
