Another frustrating weekend has us bleeding units again, but we are still way ahead for the season and look to be a pretty good bet to finish in the black. Our Uruguayan friends came through, which is more than I can say for our sometimes-English-speaking crews in Ireland and Wales.
I’m actually headed to Mexico [...]
Offshore Oscar’s picks Mar-28, 29 – Uruguay or the highway
By: Offshore Oscar | No Comments
Last week was a nightmare from a betting standpoint, as we lost all three positions without even getting much of a thrill. But I prefer to be an optimist, so I am trying to focus more on the fond memories I have of the excellent street food I had while at the SXSWi festival in [...]
Offshore Oscar’s picks Feb-11 – CONCACAF time
By: Offshore Oscar | No Comments
Arsenal and Hamburg each managed to disappoint in their own special way over the weekend, but my Serie A parlay came in to prevent a total disaster. We’re still crazy-ahead for this long season, so it’s time to concentrate on the always unpredictable and wide-open CONCACAF.
Original bankroll: 1,000 units

Before Alfio Basile’s resignation, Argentina were 5-1 to win the World Cup (and they weren’t even playing particularly well).
But the news about El Diego has seen those odds move out [...]

Another small win for the weekend was mixed with disappointment, as I was so confident in a Scottish victory that I decided to come to Edinburgh to celebrate with the locals. I quickly ran into a hardened group of cross-dressers (all wearing similar skirts!) drowning their sorrows, and things were going along well enough [...]

Another big weekend of World Cup 2010 qualifiers is upon us, and I’m hanging out in London now testing the lager taps and scanning for me best bets. There are plenty of really interesting matches to choose from, but my strongest plays are two home favorites that are holding at tempting prices.

We killed ‘em again, thanks to both the favorites we chose coming through exactly as planned and hoped. The Denmark side we loved so much on Saturday barely even got a view of the goal in Hungary, but they can come back in Portugal to score 3 times. Where the eff was all that offense [...]
