Poopoo is doing amazing. I think we need to increase his unit size so we have a chance to catch up with him.

Poopoo is doing amazing.

Boul is a beast.

[SPX]

We have to figure out what he's doing that we're not.

[Mr. IWS]

I think he just does great research and it pays off. I checked to see if he was On Kos saturday, saw he was on Lawler and was like Oh Noes!

[SPX]

We've all had periods where we've done a lot of research. My first year I did a shitload. Ironically enough, that was also my least profitable year thus far.

My strategy is basically play normal on fighters/props I like, play big/real big on fights I am really confident in with lines I disagree with. Bankroll management can go to hell

As for Kos/Lawler:

I loved Kos at first, thought his wrestling game was a stylistic nightmare for Lawler. BUT I got thinking...Kos is on the downside of his career, is in it for the money, isn't even training at AKA anymore..he basically went on his own, and tends to "stand and bang" at times. I figured he would get Paulo Thiago'd in round 1. So when I saw Koscheck's gameplan was to wrestle Lawler, I pretty much told myself that I lost that bet and was hoping for a Kos sub so I could get my "fight doesn't go distance" bet....but then I got lucky because Lawler just got on top somehow and blasted Kos' eyes into the back of his head.

What happens when you hit a bad run, though? Do you feel immune to that at this point?

I would just reload and keep doing what I am doing...it's happened before.

[SPX]

Well good luck. I remember losing 30 units in a month a couple of years ago, and that was betting far more conservatively than you do.

I guess if you have the option to reload then you can take more risks. If I lose the 28 units I have spread out across my accounts right now, I'm sunk for at least several months.

I think lawlor actually got him with a knee first.

I know I've done better since I stopped researching/watching videos and started going by memory

It was also your first year so it was the year when you knew the least. Research is always worthwhile, especially watching tape. Other kinds help too. Like whoever did the research to find out diego was a giant fatass before his camp. Quinton j style.
