I fancy going in 2026, after all I'll probably be dead by the time FIFA actually give us a shot at hosting it.
Yes, I imagine tickets will be highly sought after!

Don’t kno what the winging about USA World Cup is about to be honest. Prob expensive but a great place to holidays, English speaking and probably have best stadiums in the world. I think as an spectator probably best place to go and actually watch a World Cup.

thought a few of *US* might be interested to see how the other half live during this world cup. Day #1 and psychoff appears to have been doing rather well. Here's a P&L posted from his #worldcup2018 Discord feed (https://discordapp.com/channels/4489626 ... 5254988810):

struggling mind you to figure the -£3k loss on the OU25 market... guess that's why he's constantly in profit to such a large extent :D

Might have been some kind of 'insurance' to allow him to go bigger on the higher scores as that score wasn't blown til 71 minutes. I'd reckon he just struck lucky on that game as the O3.5 and O4.5 only came good in extra time but it's possible the CS market may have saved him if the goals hadn't gone in. He obviously has some set plan and does well with it so it'll be interesting to see how the tournament progresses for him

I know we're only 2 games in but the standard of commentary and punditry has taken a nosedive over the past few international tournaments.

Reckon it'll be 2066 when we'll get a shot.

At that time you could use wheelchair access to get a good vantage point. Add in a portable trading set up plugged into the chair, you'll have an edge for sure. Who knows what tech advancements would be available around that time....

I'm surprised by the popularity of cross-market trading within a match as the commission is almost assured to kill any long-term edge you have.

Aw how tough is that on Egypt? Poor game but they deserved a point out of it.

The 2066 will go to whoever still has venues above sea level.
