First game of World Cup!
Qatar v. Ecuador / Draw +210
Oh yes, we finally (almost) kicking off the start of the World Cup. With all the backstory on this game, any bettor in his/her right mind would not touch this game. But hey, I'm a degen and it's the freakin' World Cup where I can get drunk before noon. Even my best fade sources are on the opposite side of the over/under so I can't touch it. I'm thinking, however, that Ecuador wants to score as quickly as possible but it might not happen in the first half. If they score in the 1st half, then I see Qatar's corruption getting a penalty kick in 2nd half to level it. Or if Ecuador doesn't score in the 1st half, then the pressure will be so huge on Ecuador in not letting Qatar to score that they won't concentrate on scoring but solely on preventing Qatar to score that "fixed" goal. I'm actually wanting to see a scoreless 1st half, just to that feel that tension.
