Italy won 4-2 in the penalty kick-out! Poor England! :-cry

Quite frankly, that was a good round with great participation from Skyscript members. Most of us got the draw - Daz, GB and Johannes Suasto all seeing the match being decided on penalties. Predicting the correct scoreline was messy, although interesting. The 0-0 did turn up, being the first 0-0 draw of the tournament, although if I had put all my money on this I would probably have got drunk and shredded my ticket after the first 5 minutes! What a game! It was certainly not lacking on chances.!! :shock:

Italy got the upper hand in the end. This was an option I went for, but the Italian advantage was also spotted by Tzaddle. The wealth of chances but lack of goals was interesting, too. It was as if Jupiter, LHr, in his detriment and conjunct the SN kept missing his final aim and was wasting things away. The Moon in Virgo in the 8th house, without application, may have had something to do with it. Mercury in Cancer, I think the Cancer glyph looks a bit like a 0-0 containment, too. Gemini duplicates. Libra balances.

Other members who didn't get it right this time participated with valuable perspectives.
It is all an important part of sorting things out! :'

Portugal, ruled by Pisces, is up against Spain, ruled by Sagittarius. These are the two domains of Jupiter. Spain are favourite by odds. Who will advance to the final?

Venus, Lady of the Hour, is stationary. She disposes both the Moon, L7, and Saturn, L1, who are in the same sign, Libra, and she is in a sesqui-quadrate aspect to Saturn - as an issue for study. She is also dispositor of the Part of Fortune, who she beholds by a semi-sextile through signs of short ascension. Mercury is the most angular planet in the chart in Leo in the 7th house and he casts his antiscia to the cusp of the 4th. He is disposed by the Sun, who is a luminary and co-ruler of the 7th, and who is in sextile to POF. Venus, LHr, sits on the midpoint of the POF/Sun sextile.

In short, POF sextile the Sun appears to be the aspect of highest importance in the chart and should do it for the favourite. Venus, Lady of the Hour, in the same sign as Jupiter in the masculine sign Gemini should give more leaning to Sagittarius than to Pisces. My chips stay with Spain.

We're getting close to the end of the tournament now and this is what my betcard looks like. Before the start of the competition I made the following stakes:

Spain defending title: ?150 at 3,9:1
Spain/Germany in final: ?140 at 9:1
Spain/Croatia in final: ?35 at 55:1

Well, the ?35 on Spain/Croatia have been written off at this point, but I wanted a small position in case an outsider found the way. Now that we have reached the semi's the prospect of Spain and Germany meeting in the final is quite exciting. If this happens, there is a profit whether Spain defend the title or not. The best return is if Spain beat Germany in the final, which will be a battle and a half. If Germany mess up against Italy, I can still claim success if Spain succeed in the final. But the Spanish have to beat Portugal first.

It could still go wrong... the reason I include this post is to share something on both conviction and risk evaluation.

2 days ago I cast the chart: Will Spain be winner of euro2012 again?
Reigning champions Spain gets ruler of 10th house Ma. Others (Portugal, Italy or Germany) gets Ve rx as ruler, ruler of turned 7 house from 10th. Acc dig for Ma=6 for Ve=2 ess dig are in advantage for Ma. Ma conjunct POF. 0-1 Degrees of Leo(fixed sign) on ASC signify permanence and stability. Moon is VOC(nothing will change), so it seams Spain will be winner again. If my analyse is true, Portugal will lose tomorrow.

Do you mean, Johannes, that the Part of Fortune in the event chart casts its antiscia to 22LE58 and Saturn, L1, in his exaltation is sextile this point, hence the ascendant/favourite is the winner? It is a tight aspect, I didn't see it. :'

9/1 was good odds as a Spain/Germany final was the pundits pick at the start. You may get lucky here.

That would be nice! You don't always have to predict the outsiders as long as there is some consistency. It would be nice to pick both the winner in the Eurovision and Euro 2012 in the one and same year. However, I take some pride in backing the winner in the Eurovision in 3 out of the 4 last years! 8)

However, what was passed on in the previous post has to do with that sometimes it is useful to know something about how to build up a useful betting strategy. :wink:

My dad was a bookmaker so he taught me a few things about protection, so to speak.

Looking at this thread, which seems to have been a disaster prediction wise, I do wonder about this end of the match idea. It seems logical to me to look at outcomes when they happen not an hour or two before.

Anyway good luck. The way Italy humiliated England might result in them showing up at the weekend, perhaps you should lay a bet on them to cover your back. ?
