Argentina aren't really playing like a team that are two goals down and about to go out of the World Cup, are they? You'd think the French goal would be under siege, but they've barely had a shot. And what's the ****ing deal with Aguero? Where's that City magic??

He's been crap every time he's played in the World Cup. Guys will focus on Messi though.

Betting on France to win pays $125 for $100 bet. That makes it sound like Argentina was the favorite but they were accepting bets for higher payouts if you bet on Argentina to win.

The reason why that works out to be profitable (in the long run) casino is they collect on both sides if there’s a tie at the end of regulation. If the gambler bets on both sides he’s essentially betting against a draw.

Short answer France was favored by a fairly small margin. About 20%.

Messi has not been great though has he? Well, not since I joined the game, which was just about 68 minutes in. He's had two chances at least now to level up and he's ****ed them both up. Have to give credit to France though.

They're pretty **** odds aren't they? I would have figured maybe 100-1 on France or something.
