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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Bloody Sven and his defensive subsitutions >:(
-
just £2 on Cahill for first goal atm, possibly a £20 return.
-
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
-
I bet my money on Adriano to be topscorer.
But I was also thinking about Luca Toni and Messi.
-

bah!
finally made a £13 profit, and just blew it on Italy to win..
www.betfair.com
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 >:(
-
I was about to ask how is everyone doing so far. I'm 10 quid up at the moment, but there has been quite a lot of winnings I have betted away.
-
I'm betting petty sums with my uncle on a couple games. So far we only bet on 1, which I won (I lost it when I played him a game of pool). Got 2 games going for Brazil vs. Australia and Netherlands vs. Argentina. Not a whole lot of money going, but it is a lot to me considering I don't have a job.
-

I placed on Spain to win, after they went behind to Tunisia, and banked on Jaidi getting a yellow card, and won a cool £21 profit.
Remember, I won £18 on the last Spain game.
In two second half peformances from Spain, i've profited a cool £39 :).
now.. not to waste it on a huge bet again like Italy-USA.. ;D

I've bet on them winning with a -1 handicap, you get better odds.
Got 30 on, will get £54 back.
-
damn wish i'da known that!
-
Well if it finishes 1-0 or 2-1, you'll win and I won't.
-
true but thats the risk-reward situation :)
-
I've found that a great thing to bet on is for the first corner to be within the first 8 minutes. Its usually evens, but after you've won a few and then bet that stake on the next one, your money can really start to pile up. The only game recently where this hasn't happened was Mexico - Argentina, but the rest I've bet on all have.
-
If England 2moro I'll win:
£67 off a £20 double bet on an England win and an Italy win
£33 off a £10 triple bet on an England win, and Italy win and a draw between Germany and Italy
COME ON ENGLAND!!
