Honduras or Australia going to qualify for the world cup?
Asian playoff 2nd-leg preview
Sorry I did not update the thread sooner, for some reason I did not get notifications so I thought no one replied. I will check more often now.
This post is the TLDR, full and updated details are here https://bitedge.com/blog/betting-my-way-to-russia-asian-playoff-2nd-leg-preview/
Expenses
Total of 886 mBTC spent on my trip to Malaysia and Sydney. I already won 448 mBTC on the 1st-leg leaving 438 mBTC left to win.
Bets
I have bet on “Australia to qualify” risking 2826 mBTC to win 438 mBTC. I got the bet on before the 1st-leg at odds of 1.155. The same bet is now up at 1.11.
Just like my bet in the 1st-leg this means I have a value bet with positive expectation so I am happy with the bet no matter what the end result.

Exciting stuff man!
Don't gamble away too many BTC
Don't gamble away too many BTC
That's correct. We shouldn't waste more money in gambling.
But it is more fun to visit all those places to watch these games and also need a lot of money and free time to do these games. All the best to OP at least should recover all his spending on these trips.

seems really adventerous and exciting. Hope you both have fun and profit. May the luck be with you ! 
Asian playoff 1st-leg report
This post is the TLDR, full and updated details are here https://bitedge.com/blog/betting-my-way-to-russia-asian-playoff-1st-leg-report/
The game: 1-1 draw
Conditions where hot and humid with not a whiff of breeze all night. The pitch was slow and a bit bobbly due to the cow grass they use.
The quality of football was abysmal. Neither team deserve to make it to the World Cup playing like that.
The bets
My "Double chance: Draw or Australia" bet won me 448 mBTC. More than half the cost of the full trip
Melaka Malaysia
Wow, what an awesome place! This is a vibrant living old Asian colonial pirate town. It’s full of character but is not a tourist trap. It’s modern without being overrun by development and it’s preserving its history without becoming a museum piece.

Expenses
Total of 886 mBTC spent on my trip to Malaysia and Sydney.
Bets
A few days ago I made “Double chance: Draw or Australia” bets at odds of 1.23/-345 for more than enough to cover my trip to Malaysia. Now that bet is into 1.15/-667. So I am off to a great start, loving Melaka Malaysia, and looking forward to going to the game tomorrow

ITT I will try to follow my team to the World Cup in Russia, and pay for it all with bitcoins I win betting on the tournament!
Given my team is Australia I am including both Socceroos’ home and away qualifying playoffs. First against Syria for the last qualification spot from Asian. Then our intercontinental playoff against the 4th ranked North American side.
Those 2 qualification playoffs and the tournament itself make this a 3-part project. I will treat the expenses, and therefore the winning bets required, separately for each part.
The expenses
Full details will be posted on each parts posts. I will pay with bitcoin as much as possible including Expedia for accommodation and CheapAir for flights. Where I cannot pay with bitcoin directly I will use my Bitpay visa debit card.
The bets
Full details will be posted on each part’s posts. I will bet wherever I see value. For the qualification ties I might simply bet on Australia to win through. In the tournament, itself I might use these betting strategies with a stop loss.
I will bet at whichever of the top ranked bitcoin sportsbooks has the best odds on the bet I want to make.
