This reminds me of a bet I once made with a friend. I made a wager that he couldn't guess the next song that would come on the radio station that we were listening to. Sure enough, it was the one he had predicted...

He now has +$1 of mine...

Heh I feel sorry for you. Maybe you should have found a technicality to stop him with. I bet with my friends a lot, and I always win, but I never get the money. I believe that all together people owe me about $450.

I've done stuff like that before and say they owe me so much money, but they know I'm kidding around and you're right: it's fun to be right.

Greece were apparently 80-1 to win but depending where you get...

Someone won $600,000 on Greece's win actually. So it could have been a lot worse.

I believe that I owe him about maybe $449 of that money. By the way, I probably have more luck on a day to day basis than any of these people. The problem is that most of it is bad...

The most I've ever lost is $10... Of course, on sports bets, I can't tell you how much soda I've won.

$2,500. That's pretty lucky.

I would have won $100 on the sports lotto two years ago...

...but I HAD to pick Leverkusen over Olympiakos. (Final: 1-6.)

When I bet on something, that's because I'm sure I can find a way to a 100% right answer. And I win most of the time (well for non-sport bets). I usually win bets about WWE, try to bet with people who have just began watching RAW. HURRAY for free money !

I bet you don't feel half as bad as I did 4 years ago, when I bet 500kr on The Netherlands winning the Euro Championships, and had to see them go out in the semi-finals after missing two penalty kicks in regular time, and also some in the following PK-shootout.

That's not true. You can go down to any race track and lose your life savings in a matter of minutes. We even have casinos here in Kansas.

Lucky me, I'm in Canada. (It's not illegal here, isn't it?)

Have you ever been there? I never have, but from what I hear it's supposed to be a skanky version of Las Vegas.
