What Price A Mars Bar In Two Weeks?
With only a couple of weeks to go until the jamboree of world football kicks off in South Africa on June 11th for a full month, there’s more than one way of making money out of the tournament. A straight on the nose bet on England to win the tournament might not seem so prudent following their shambolic display against Japan, but if you’re still blinded by patriotism rather than guided by prudence, then most bookies will give you around 7:1 for that possibility. You may want to also look at Spain 17:4, Brazil 5:1, Argentina coming in at 15:2 or Holland at an intriguing 11:1.
But even if England do crash and burn to the USA, Algeria and Slovenia you can still snatch victorious cash from the jaws of defeat by betting on the performance of a single player.Various bookies and some broadcast media use sports betting software awards points, depending on performance and the contribution of individual players during the course of a game.Indeed, most newspaper reviews will at least assign man-for-man “ratings out of ten” in their post-match reports..Your chosen player scoring a goal might earn 25 points.For an assist or decent cross ten points. Winning a free kick could be worth three points and so on. Yellow cards would lose them ten points and a red card would pretty well wipe out any points accrued.
This is not too different from financial spread betting. In this case, a broker may offer you a spread of 70-75 points in a particular game, so if you think Rooney will be on fire, scoring lots of goals and setting up others without getting steamed up and being sent off, you could buy the spread at £20 a point. If Shrek then amasses 80 points during the game, you make five points (80-75) at £10 a point.£50 in your pocket should at least buy enough beers and lagers to wipe away the bitter memory of defeat. The beauty is you don’t need to pick the winning team or even the leading goal scorer. Even if your chosen player is on the losing side but forces lots of corners or completes brilliant passes, he’ll rack up points and make you money. And of course you can also consider spread betting on price cuts across all the England-branded merchandise currently in the stores and shops.Estimate just how cheap an England wrapped mars bar will be after June 12th, and you could still be a winner!!
