bet 10k on any other team besides Brazil to win world cup and it is down as a loss?

Jeez that is a decent bet.. If I could bet right now that any team but X will win the SB, I would be all over it.

So Germany is 11/2 but Other was read as being every team other than Brazil at 100/1? I'm not sure how anyone does that :confused:. And why any team other than Brazil why not any team other than Colombia?

I'm guessing it was the idea that only Brazil was listed above "Other" when it probably should have been at the end.

That said, it's still more reasonable to parse that as any other team besides those listed, especially since the "Any other but Brazil" interpretation makes it MUCH smarter to bet on that than just Germany.

The order is done on the number of people betting on that option, so is unfortunately outside of my control.
