There were a few upsets and unexpected results over the past few days of the group stage for the 2014 World Cup. This has caused a ripple effect that cost many sports fans in the CO world their chips. However, not all fans ended up losing. “Egoista”, from the Emerald server, turned out to be a winner through all of the upsets! Our special World Cup correspondent, Maxine, has spent some time talking with Egoista about her views on the World Cup Betting Pool, and the 2014 World Cup.
Maxine: Hello, do you have time to have a quick interview?
Egoista: Yes.
Maxine: Okay, would you please introduce yourself, first?
Egoista: I am Egoista, from the Emerald server. I started this game about 9 years ago, and I still enjoy it.

Maxine: I saw you placed 99 Gold Chips on Costa Rica. Why did you think they would beat Uruguay?
Egoista: I guess I went with my instincts. In fact, I didn't know they were a good team, either. When I watched the game, I still call the teams by their shirt colors.The only reason I'm watching the World Cup is because of your event. Hehe.
Maxine: Aren't you a soccer fan?
Egoista: Let's just say you opened my appetite for it.
Maxine: Did you place any bets on today's teams?
Egoista: I believe I bet about 49 Gold Chips on the Netherlands. I will bet some more later today, because Australia kept an undefeated record in their last three matches with the Netherlands. But, the Netherlands sounds like the one to break the rules for me, because they demolished Spain in the first match of the group stage.
Maxine: Good point. How about the match between Spain and Chile? Which team do you support?
Egoista: I hope Chile will win. This World Cup sounds like the one to be remembered in history, and Spain had their spotlight already. So, let the small guys eat the big guys to give us a good show.
Maxine: We will try our best! Thanks for your supporting and your time!
Egoista: My pleasure! This is the best offline event you guys made, and I hope to see more of these coming! And thanks for the chat, Maxine. It was nice speaking with you!
