I placed some bets on the World Cup...

[Mac 10 †]

Ronaldo to be top scorer and Brazil to win the WC - £25 - 20/1           Possible return = £525
Adriano to be top scorer and Brazil to win the WC - £25 - 20/1           Possible return = £525
Ronaldinho to be top scorer and Brazil to win the WC - £5 - 28/1        Possible return = £145
Luca Toni to be top scorer at the WC - £15 - 16/1                             Possible return = £255
Thierry Henry to be top scorer at the WC - £5 - 12/1                         Possible return = £65
Ruud Van Nistelrooy to be top scorer at the WC - £5 - 16/1                Possible return = £85
Wayne Rooney to be England's top scorer at the WC - £15 - 6/1         Possible return = £105

* The Luca Toni bet was a free bet for joining Skybet
* Best possible outcome in £'s = 630
* Worst possible outcome in £'s = 0

But hey what is £80 really? 

Anyone else got some action going on for the World Cup?

Uhm not yet.. but now that you brought it up I actually might bet a little... I don´t bet usually but I just checked the site of my local bets provider (is that a word? lol) and I might go for some simple bets...

Like topscorer like you did and whatnot..

Alberto Gilardino @ 80/1 - £20, possible win - £1600.

Rooney was 65/1 on Betfair 2 days ago..
EDIT- I see its "England's" top-scorer.

betfair currently has Rooney on 42/1 for golden boot.

[Intriago33]

just made 2 bets for 2days fixtures, add some excitement for down the pub.

01) England to beat Paraguay, 3-1.
odds are 17.5/1, I placed £2, possible win = £35.

02) Olof Mellberg to score first goal, in the game of Trinidad - Sweden.
odds are 42/1, I placed £2, possible win = £82.

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Gonna try to bet on all of the games today.

Made 25 quid bet on there to be more than two goals in England - Paraguay game, which nets me about 35 quid that I can then bet on the other two games with. Used the free 25 quid bet that this gave me @ Bet365 to bet on Ronaldo as top goalscorer at 11-1.

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Bloody Sven and his defensive subsitutions

[Intriago33]

just £2 on Cahill for first goal atm, possibly a £20 return.

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Made my money back betting on Argentina to win and Crespo to be first goalscorer.

Probably gonna put some money on Viduka for first scorer in Aus-Jap

[Fressh_Deini]

I bet my money on Adriano to be topscorer.
But I was also thinking about Luca Toni and Messi.

[Gangstauu]

I filled in 1 big thing wit lotsa questions. I can win like 350-400 euros wit that, have put in 15 euro

also i already won 1 beer  one of my homies said he was sure Netherlands - Serbia Montenegro would end in a 1-1 

Wit that same dude i placed a bet for 5 beers that england would get further in the tournement then the netherlands.... stil waiting on that one

what sites are you betting on? may have a flutter!

finally made a £13 profit, and just blew it on Italy to win..

I seem to win money during games, like on the "Next Goal", I have bad luck betting on sides before a ball is kicked..

ah, back to the drawing board of £0 profit
