Football Fans Can Show Off Their Euro 2008 Football IQ and Get Rich with Betfair's Euro Score Picker, a Free to Enter Euro 2008 Betting Game with a T

London, UK (PRWEB) June 7, 2008 --

Betfair are upping the ante for Euro 2008 football (http://betfair.betfair.com/category/sports-betting/football/euro-2008/) by providing fans the chance to prove their knowledge of Euro 2008 qualifiers, and put themselves in pole position for a windfall. The best bit? Fans will be in control of their Euro 2008 football experience and feel like they've been dropped right into the middle of all the action.

Each goal scored will be loaded with meaning as it slams the prize money closer to the pockets of eleven lucky winners. It's set to have football fans sitting on the edge of their seats this summer, and just when they thought the UEFA Euro 2008 fixtures couldn't get more exciting!

So, how does it work? Well, that's the easy bit. Most footie fans have probably already been doing what's required with their mates down the pub. Maybe they've even put some thought into which football teams they'll be betting on for Euro 2008. All fans need to do is pick a score for each group of games and submit their predictions to Betfair's Score Picker (http://betfair.betfair.com). Fans don't need to worry too much about their picks, as these can be updated before kick off for any of the matches. There's no need for a crystal ball, or even to be a footie fan or a Euro football betting pro; for those who don't know their Podolski from their Thierry, or are unsure whether Germany will reign over Portugal, or Italy over Spain, Betfair have a "lucky Dip" option that will do all the thinking for them.

Players can enter at any time, even after the Euro 2008 football games have kicked off, as points can be picked up by making good choices for matches later on. For example, players can get five times the points for correctly predicting final game scores than correct predictions made for the initial group phase. It's sure to pump up the excitement of the Euro 2008 games.

So, what's the catch? Simple -- there isn't one. This is Betfair's way of giving something back, and they've got footie fan's 2008, Euro football betting (http://betfair.betfair.com/category/sports-betting/football/euro-2008/) enjoyment in mind. It can be thought of as a little treat because the England team weren't qualifiers for the 2008 European championship.

The 2008 Euro games could take on a whole new meaning for fans who get ahead of the masses and sign up now for Betfair's Score Picker. Let's face it, dedicated fans are going to be predicting the scores anyway, maybe even placing their own Euro football bet, so a few minutes spent on Betfair's Score Picker will be a small investment towards the top prize of £5000. And it doesn't cost a penny to play.

Football fans will be able to sit back and enjoy the Euro 2008 football matches, leaving the rest up to the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Fernando Torres. And of course, those who enter will be able to dream about how to spend the prize money?because this year, eleven lucky winners are going to really be standing out of the crowd.
