Cancel my Uruguay pick. I was trying to hedge my prior bet on Russia to win the group, but probably not worth it at the correct odds.

It occurs to me that with 3 possible outcomes in every game, bookies should be able to make killings quite regularly in soccer.

After my string of misses (ties make soccer betting a lot harder), I decided to go all-in on Brazil and Colombia. Colombia had a tough one today but I really liked their chances to beat Senegal in a must-win situation. Felt they were undervalued by the odds after a fluky loss to Japan where they had to play a man down basically the whole way.
