Limitations:
Minimum bet: $50,000
Maximum bet: $600,000
How to bet:
All bets must be on a Win.
To place a bet, send me a message in the following format:
Match #: (#50, 51, or 52)
Team you are betting on to Win:
Amount you wish to bet:
If you would like your bet to be public or remain anonymous: (in the event I choose to post betting pools)
The bet must then be wired to me (Ritzo) in order for it to count. A lot of you are just messaging me your bet but not sending me the bet. That's as good as absolutely nothing and is a waste of my time. No money = no bet. Seriously, It's not that difficult.
I will send a confirmation message of your bet(s) once I have received it (Please allow time for a confirmation if I do not happen to be online at the time).
If you wish to bet on multiple matches, please send separate messages. Thank you to most of you for doing this correctly.
Disclaimer:
I will collect all bets based on the time they are wired to me. If they were sent after the deadline, they will not count and will be returned. As long as you've sent the bet and the message before the deadline, it will count.
Please allow time after the end of each match (up to 24 hours) for the winners to be paid off. Patience is a virtue as they say.
Good luck and happy betting! |

Are we just betting on 90 minutes or does extra time and penaltys count ? |

Thank you Sparky. I should have clarified. I count the entire match - which includes extra time, penalties, sudden death, whatever it takes to produce a winner. |

Current betting pool is now over 2.5 million. Keep 'em coming!
On a side note, I would like to assuage any fears by saying that the recent death of my crewleader will not affect the betting process. |

It looks like I've reversed the times for the first two matches. I will continue to take bets for the Uruguay VS Ghana match for the next 2.5 hours and the betting for Netherlands VS Brazil has now ended.
That's the last time I trust Wikipedia when making the schedule; it was reversed at the time I started this.
I apologize for any confusion this may have caused! |

Almost 4 million in bets!
1 hour left until betting closes for Argentina VS Germany. 4 hours 'till Paraguay VS Spain closes.
Keep in mind, this has been the World Cup for the underdogs! |
