Re: Evans-Rampage UFC 114

I had 1u on Forrest and was waiting for the line thatn he wins by dec, I was contimplating another 2 or 3u. I think forrest would have dominated the stand up, especially after watching that last night.

BTW you need a new avatar, that is so not a ninja.

Listen here, nigga. You abandoned the ninja a LONG time ago.

Besides, Jubei is a ninja. Or at least half a ninja. I mean fuck, he's the star of a movie called NINJA SCROLL. Hello???

But Diego losing wiped out almost all of the winnings anyway and I walked away with only a 2u win, because of Escudero.

Aw, how did you only end up +2 U? Didn't you literally bet almost 100 U on Nog? Or do you define your bankroll to 20 or 30 U?

Anyway, glad you won that - I figured it worked out best of both worlds for you. You get your money and an important lesson about going on tilt from the pants-shittingly close decision.

I play with a 50U bankroll... but I had lost 5u on Hess thursday, and then another 5u on Hansen Friday... I had 10u out on Diego and Efrain... my bet ended up being about 38u. It was -700, so I only cleared 5.4u. Then I lost 5u on Diego and won 1.4 on Efrain. So it was actually only 1.8u win.

Re: Evans-Rampage UFC 114

Come on tell us a good story about what was going on as the fight was over and you were waiting for the decision. Were you on the roof ready to jump? Were you getting ready to run into on coming traffic? Did you have both barrels of the shotgun loaded?

Come on we can laugh and joke about it now because it worked out .I know I was ready to shut the event off and open a bottle of liquor and then I did a sheepishly little dance around living room as the lady shook her head

there is no story, I gave up caring after Diego lost.

Do tell!

I will lay it out for you guys tuesday. Basically it is going to be a negative progression, with 3 sub bankrolls. It is designed so that I never experience negative variance, ever. But the downside is that if I lose 3 in a row, I wipe out 33% of my bankroll...

Nog reveals knee injury in training to explain his performance.

I'm sure he was also dealing with staph, dengue fever, cracked skull, fused vertabra c4/c5/T1000, etc.

Could it just be that he thought this chubby dude who took the fight on 3 weeks notice wouldn't pose any threat at all? Inquiring minds want to know.

I look forward to more details on Tuesday.

Not for long, that's for sure.

I've Martingaled in blackjack plenty of times. Sometimes it's worked out. Sometimes I went home empty handed in very short order.

Maybe when he loses he's going to sue the book.

Re: Evans-Rampage UFC 114

[quote=zY|]Here's a funny story.

I do think Nogueira will be overvalued though, even though he should win.

Aside from destroying Luiz Arthur Cane, he hasn't really looked that amazing in forever.

Is Brilz really that much of a step down from Forrest?

(zips up flame suit)

I thought Luke was the one who said stupid stuff just to fuck with everyone

I'm sure zY was being sincere, despite the fact that it sounded like a classic troll comment.

Like it or not, Forrest is an ex-champ with wins over Shogun, Rampage, and Tito.

Then he loses in dramatic fashion to Anderson Fucking Silva and he's suddenly on the level of Jason Brilz.

Who still thinks Forrest would've done better than Brilz? I think he would've lost pretty handily.[/quote:3u8dssji]


I thought you were out of your mind with that shit too zY. And again, you were right. After this and BJ/Edgar, I think Ill start taking unpopular statments from you more seriously. With the pace that Forrest pushes, I think he would have won the fight easily.

Re: Evans-Rampage UFC 114

Jason Brilz knows how he’s going to spend the $65,000 “Fight of the Night” bonus he was awarded Saturday for his UFC 114 light heavyweight bout against Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.

He’s going to pay off some bills and then get “whatever else the wife wants.”

“I missed my 10-year wedding anniversary,” Brilz explained with a laugh during the Sherdog Radio Network’s Beatdown After the Bell program. “(The bonus) is probably going to go to a nice ring that she’s going to pick out.”

Brilz missed the anniversary because he was busy preparing as a late replacement to fight Nogueira. He filled in for an injured Forrest Griffin on roughly two and a half weeks’ notice and surprised many by pushing the No. 6-ranked Nogueira to a split decision. Brilz lost on the judges’ cards (29-28, 29-28, 28-29), but he has plenty of supporters who feel he should have been given the win, including Dana White. The UFC president called the decision “bulls--t” during interviews after the post-fight news conference.
