If anyone's interested, Surrey Sports has lines out for all group phase matches and you can parlay all you want.

Shawn, about the lack of two-way betting on the advance/not to advance props, I think it's a bit of a cop out to be honest. Loads of books offer both-way betting on every team in the tournament. I think what it lets you do is offer really low odds because you can't get punished by people betting the other way. Let's take Turkey not to advance at Pinnacle @ 'evens'. This is the lowest price I have found anywhere in the world. The only reason you can offer such a price is because you can't get hit on the other side (to advance). Give Turkey to advance at -120 or even -140 and it'll get nuked, I assure you.
