I have a very simple principle when it comes to betting.
Look at the cars they drive.
Punters: Ford, Citroen, Peugeot, ...
Bookies: Jaguar, Bentley, Ferrari, Porsche, Rolls Royce, ...
That tells me who really wins ... and I've never placed a bet in my life as a result!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Most punters I know aspire to drive a car..

Now the question is: What car is Peter driving?

Given the (lack of) driving skills in Israel, those wouldn't last a second on the roads. I have no idea what he actually drives, but he probably would like one of these[^]. 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Similar to the 'new' [actually older than the current] car I'm getting next week. Eldest has christened it Tank[^]

Wonderful little cars, anything can be repaired with paper glue and a smithy.
Built after the principle: what does not exist cannot break.
|
|
|
|
|
The problem is what does exist breaks constantly. 
|
|

My father had one of those - never broke...only folded sometimes (paper can't brake)...

If the England fans (f.k.a. hooligans) keep up the good work with the French Police I think Wales easily slips to the next round....

England by TKO

TKO? I thought fans not allowed on field!?

What are the odds on that happening? Put a $/€/pound/whatever on it. If you lose, you don't lose much. But if you win... wow!
Kitty at my foot and I waAAAant to touch it...

TBH, it is more likely that Engerlund get disqualified for stupid thugs and Wales get the TKO.

Personally, I think the violence is politically motivated. If the English thugs are violent enough, the British won't have to vote on Brexit; the rest of the EU will simply show them the door...

I presume the bet you're talking about is the body count. Hmmmmm. I'll get back to you on this.

Wait for the team sheets. If Kane's playing lone striker, Wales. If Vardy's playing lone striker, draw. If Vardy and Kane are playing dual strikers, Wales. If Vardy and Rashford are playing dual strikers, Hodgson has been visited by God or has been subject to extraordinary rendition by an angry mob of supporters who just can't stand it any more, a seismic revolution in the English game is underway and ... it'll still be a draw. In short, England will only win if nobody thinks England will win and therefore nobody puts money on England winning. Unfortunately England are currently 4/7 favourites so an England win is out of the question!
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

In my defence nobody could reasonably have anticipated the manager putting three out and out forwards on the field at the same time. Jaw dropping stuff!
