That is a cool million dollar bet. Usual you see those heavy hitters in Vegas putting it down on a fighter in the UFC, but on a Euros match?
I guess it just happened. Cheesy
In gambling you take risk you die, you go the soft way you also die, so why not take the hard way that could probably get you to the top if hit? But  betting on England against Denmark? I would rather donate the money to charities, I see nothing good coming out of this game I see a full time draw game here. Although I'm hoping Denmark make it to the final and save the world from noise pollution and hike transfer market from the English media.

$1 million bet. Damn. Big Kahunas and cojones indeed. The only way I'd ever bet a million dollars is if I had several hundred million... so I guess I'll just keep dreaming.

Meanwhile, Djoker 30/1 Special today missed by 1 game on the first set *sobs*.

Didn't take the earlier Kane special. Probably going to be a 10% superboost which I'll do a betbuilder for tonight's game. 3 goals, Kane score, 3 cards, over 10 corners, easy right?Wink

Not looking good for all those specials you guys mentioned today. Good thing I was super busy at work and did not have time to take any of them. I was online a couple of times but the specials that were live at that moment were not that interesting for me. I like them when I feel it is slam dunk or when we have really big odds.

I avoided everything for EURO because I expected this leg to be as tight as it turned out,,, and the same for Copa specials (not that I saw any when I was online). I think the final will be even worse, UNLESS Denmark somehow make it to meet Italy, then we can all bet on many goals and even Extra time drama.

Someone has some kind of insider tip for England to win today. Undecided


Hi Guys,

Here it is!! I think this is the First Million Buck $$ Bet I've seen taken here.

Thoughts?
We need to give it a name if it's going to go down in Sportsbet.io history..

Like the "big Kahuna bet"

Taking our first motto in 2016 of Bet Big Win Big to a whole new level!!

regards,

Steve.

Live x6:Over 2.5 Goals In Both Semi Final Matches (Normal Time Only)


I would take it if the minimum threshold was 1.5, but with such success if you think that more than 2.5 goals will be scored in both matches, I would recommend using BetBuilder (combining with predictable outcomes regarding corners + total over 2.5, you can get much higher odds).

Live x5: Italy & England Both To Win (Normal Time Only)


Same thinking as me. I did mull over the Over 2.5 goals but I think we were lucky to have over 1.5 in the QFs, they should be even tighter this time around, maybe even a 0-0 if Italy and Spain decide to dance instead of fight haha. I still don't mind seeing loads of goals though as I'm already very entertained. Also took Italy England to win as it's over 10% better odds than anywhere around AND I'd have put them in my multi anyway.

I *also* took Immobile + Messi to score (the latter should be a sure thing) as it's boosted to 55/10;)

Still waiting for another special to land... Wink

EURO has been SO good to us all:) But I only made one special that hit (4.5 goals) but it was a big one for me!

Yeah I think most of us won a fairly decent amount from all specials combined, on top of this most of the specials are guaranteed with moneyback so yeah Euro special from sportsbet was quite generous. Didnt you take the 120 goals special? iirc this was the special with the highest odds out of all special, even with only 1 mbtc bet that would be 20 fold.

As I said I sadly only made that one special that hit. Others returned money back so I won in total after all,,, which makes me happy of course. Sportsbet really made it nice for us, and that keeps giving us back, so I will never find anything to complain about it.

20x seemed too nice yes, but I looked at stats and saw the goal average was too high. I did not expect soooo many goals:)

Live x6: ⚽ Over 2.5 Goals In Both Semi Final Matches (Normal Time Only)

Well this one is pretty nasty special, Im not really sure but I think it would be hard to get atleast 3 goals in both matches. I'd probably take this one if extra time is included into it

I am not following F1 so I skipped all those specials. I was thinking on taking Botas one since odds looked good but checked my fiat bookie and found much better odds @25. So I took it there instead. I am avoiding that fiat bookie since we lose roughly 15 percent on the taxes but when odds are that good it is still value.

I am also a bit disappointed about lack of Copa promotions. I had a feeling sportsbet is really big in Brazil since they are sponsors of team plus Steve is always showing us all those amazing multi tickets from Brazil. Then you have Copa hosted in Brazil and Brazilians playing great - feels like missed opportunity unless those promos are geographicaly targeted.

Not complaining though, EURO promos have been amazing for me so far  Grin

Even worse for me,,, I am usually not able to go online much during the weekends these days. Now I have to travel very far early Saturday and get back late Sunday. Mobile data is a bit expensive so some apps and try to do some betting but more than that cannot really stay online long. Which means I am going to miss the big games next weekend unless I put prelive far ahead:)

@rdbase ouch on Italy cards, weird about them isn't it?

I don't know much about F1 but Max Verstappen to win @2.00 (actual odds is 1.34 on the outright market) seems like a good value bet since he won the last two grand prix and will be starting at the first position.

https://sportsbet.io/sharebetslip/775384b9-25ea-4b7a-8f43-7c2da1ce5582

Was just saying in the main thread I picked the Bottas one (15/1), which I know is probably not happening but that kind of value is impossible to ignore for me. He wasn't too far off in qualification time. Verstappen's hot in form and I normally also like to follow form but don't really know enough about F1 to put that kind of money down -- good luck to you, though! All picks still in top 4 position with 18 laps done.

I've been waiting for COPA specials though! Are we not getting them because of location?

Been posting about the F1 races for this season over here for a bit now. Grin
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.57375788
If you bet on him for this race before the qualifying round yesterday you would of gotten him closer to @2.00x but he went down significantly since then, as you mentioned, he received pole position for the start of today's race.

Williams was the focus of attention yesterday as they finished in the top 5 yesterday and seeing both Ferrari drivers not qualifying was a shocker! Shocked
Can't wait to see what this race in Austria has in store in about 20 minutes.

@Trofo Congratulations on the over as it most certainly did hit with both matches had alot of goals, no matter which one you placed a bet on! Wink
England squad popping in 4 and keeping a clean sheet throughout the tournament is quite impressive and they finally got that monkey off their back for this euros with not just skimming through to the next round.
Denmark on the other hand could of done better with only putting in 2 and being satisfied with it going into the second half with a Czech squad pressing and almost putting it level many times over.
Two players on the Czech side had to get their heads bandaged up, like usual. Grin
It was a thrilling match to watch regardless but good on the danes to punch their ticket through to the semifinals.

As per usual off by one card for my euro selections Embarrassed

@Trofo I saw your post in SB thread haha and I've got a bet on it too (alerted by your original notification). The over 1.5 goals in each game is still alive, and I'm actually pretty confident we'll get at least 2 in Denmark/Czech game, but it's the England one that's always tricky. Very goal shy, so am hoping Southgate relents and gives his team the creativity they need from Mr Peaky Blinders.

I totally am not learning my lesson today though: OT in both games at 15/1;) Who else took it?
Did not take any new specials today, maybe better Smiley Just waiting for that over 1.5 goals one to hit. Kane already put one behind Ukrainian keeper so my hopes for this one went up even more. Now just one more counter attack over Sterling or Sancho and that is it.

So yesterday's specials all busted -- I avoided the Ferran Torres 4/1 but lost from the Spain/Italy 5/1 and both matches ET 13/1.

@morvillz7z I also feel an own goal and a red card parlay would be nice, but couldn't find anything of the sort haha. GL! I can feel 1-0 in at least one for sure! England, looking at you.
I sure hope you took it, we got an own goal even though I don't actually think it should have been categorized as that and now red card for the Swiss team. Must have been some odds.

I took both games to finish in overtime promo. One down one to go.

Yeah I was cursing myself, I need to find more books or spend more time but couldn't rush in time before the game. Games are tight and I definitely wanted to try own goal + red card... and it hit on the first game urgh! I could find a red card deal on betbuilder but no own goal, but I hedged on another side a 20/1 Swiss comeback so I guess I'm good there. I don't normally hedge myself so much but with specials, it's hard to ignore and much easier to manoeuvre myself!

Edit: so we're now in overtime, so my 13/1 special is still in play (yay?).

Anyone took Spain win + Torres score? I eventually did not, felt like Morata may finally unlock the gates tonight instead and let it flood. Switzerland chasing absolute shadows this first 10 minutes, and then yet another own goal in EURO (yes it was credited to Alba but for me, deflection very bad).

Now need Swiss to take a goal so we go to ET haha (13/1 special come on!).

Man, when you talk about a small bet, do you mean 25 mBTC? Consider that we simple guys can't keep up with whales like you.  Grin
I have a feeling you give me way too much credit.

I didn't like any of the new Euro specials that were released in the last two days, so i decided to create my own and have some fun.

There have been a record number of own goals in this tournament (9 to be exact), far more than in any previous Euros, and i feel we haven't seen the last one yet. These too have pretty attractive odds, ranging from 10 to 12. I'll be taking one each game with the same stake. There has been an own goal scored every 4.89 matches, and there are still 7 matches to be played....You never know when Jordan Pickford will do something silly, right?  Cheesy

I'll be taking one more special, correct score 1-0 odds-on favorite, these come at around 7-8.00. We've had seven of those so far, or every 6.29 matches. We will probably see more tight matches going forward, at least i hope so.

Anyways, not sure what to expect from these two^, there's a high probability i lose both, but it's for fun, so yeah... Smiley

edit;



on the first try, lol this tournament is cursed!
