Anyone who says "motherfuckers" is okay in my book.

You're easily amused arent you?

Keep posting around here and prove you can keep saying meaningful shit and I'm sure we'll start paying attention to you pretty soon

Keep posting and we'll pay attention to you.LOL you're kidding right?

His write up was good I am already paying attention to his posts.Anyone that gives reasons for his bets it ok in my book

What about those of us to never give reasons (besides "gut feeling") but do drop serious Washingtons on fights? Occasionally, I"ll put a Lincoln or a Hamilton on a fight - if I feel daring enough. .

Oh yeah... that's how I roll.

Took Melendez 3.1u to win 2u. He should keep this upright for the most part and be able to dominate Aoki in the standup, and if it does get to the ground he should be good enough to avoid subs.

[Luke]

Aoki is upto +140 now.(I'm not taking him)

[Thewiseman]

Took King Mo .5U to win 1u.
I think his wrestling alone makes him a live dog.

Triathlete . . . you're a high roller in my book, friend. . .

I went ahead and took Mousasi for a unit @-205.

[Thewiseman]

Im a little on tilt. Took Hendo 7.9u to win 2u.

How you can be on tilt? You just won like a billion units on a card everyone crashed and burned on.

Just a little mad about Curran. Your right though. I was only gonna take Hendo up to -350, hope this doesnt burn me.

[MMA_scientist]

Also tilting from Curran. I am going to take it out on Aoki.

4u on Melendez @ -170

[zY|]

I find it interesting you guys go on tilt and bet like crazy. I react the opposite way and stop betting at all for awhile when I lose.

Good to see.

I get scared when I feel I made a series of bad calls. Maybe I am losing the touch. But when a fighter just decides to screw me, like Curran did, or when Stevenson fought Sotiropolous, or Sokidjou losing to Minowa... I feel like they just were not in the mood to fight that day. Then I get pissed and bet more to get back my unfairly lost money.

It all makes sense in my head.

^^^^ I think you're wrong about Stevenson. George was being underestimated for that fight and he came in and proved the odds were wrong. As for the others you mentioned, I would agree for the most part.

EDIT: By the way, I'm also not sure that Melendez/Aoki is the right fight to try to get your money back on.

Too late. I see only 1 path to victory for Aoki, submission. His submission skills are vastly overrated IMO. He does some flashy stuff, bur really he has subbed Hansen, who has a lot of holes in hs sub game as well (and is also overrated IMO) and Alvarez- which is a legit win. All of his other subs are against lower tier comp. But none of that matters because Gil is not going to grapple with him.

Aoki has never fought in the U.S, we boo grapplers here. The cage. The travel. No magic pants. A tough stylistic matchup. It all adds up in Melendez's favor.


I also dropped 5u on Hendo @ -413.

If I am going down, I am going to go down in flames.

[SPX]

Indeed. Well no guts, no glory, I suppose.

I'd also like to bet Hendo, but I want him at -300 or better, not this bullshit that's out there right now.

Everything points to Melendez to win this. I think you are right. I also think the line will get better..the last time it was around -180 it shot right back down. So I am going to wait.

I can also get Hendo for -385...but for some reason I am so hesitant on this fight. ahhh decisions decisions.

Yeah, it seems like a trap.

I don't want to get Marquardted again.
