- 4U.

God damn it. Seeing all that footage of Arlovski training at AKA and Jackson's tricked me. Overeem would have been a great bet but it's too late. Time to focus my betting on UFC 114 now!

LOL SPX stop being selfish and hoping for bad judging.

I take my wins however I can get 'em!

Besides, if Silva didn't want to lose via decision then he shouldn't have kept pushing AA up against the cage where AA was able to keep reversing him.

I made a list minute 6u bet on Allistair at the last minute, right before the fight. I'm still down. UFC 114

I took a bath on this one. 5u on AA 4u on Riberio. Biggest loss I've ever had on MMA. It sucks watching the last month or two of profit disappear.

I hear you on that one brother. I had actually hit a new and unprecedented level of prosperity before this shit. Now my ass feels like I'm back in the primordial times of my betting career.

It was a bloodbath.

lost 9u plus 2u on my first and last boxing play.

Devastating. I was there, AA is done. Beerbohm just stalled the whole time, I gave him a very slight edge 29/28. It was literally the worst fight I have ever seen, with the exception of the 30 seconds it was on the ground. Shaolin nearly submitted him like 5 different ways. I have no idea why Shaolin was working to stop the takedown attempts. He was dominant on the floor. Stupid.

In any event, It was great to see Roger get a win, and Jacare's fight was awesome.

I will be chasing my losses wildly in the next couple weeks.

Everyone but Zak lost, Scientist, and most of us lost in a big way.

I've lost my last 6 bets in a row. Sucks.

I would cut Luke some slack on that boxing play. He calls most of his fights right. Can't win 'em all, as you should well know.

Re: Strikeforce HEAVY ARTILLERY- MAY 15, 2010

I don't blame Luke. It was a close line, not an easy win.

I do blame Shaolin. Why was he fighting the takedown so hard? He absolutely clowned Beerbohm for the 45 seconds they were on the mat. My theory is that Beerbohm was just holding him against the cage, but not really trying to take him down. Just trying to pretend he was taking him down. It was disgusting. It was a lot like Vera/Couture. Except instead of a knee, Shaoling threatened him on the mat, the one chance he had when he wasn't being held against the cage.

Poopoo, I am going to bet Hornbuckle and maybe Askren thursday, and I might jump on Sylvia now too.

I do blame Shaolin.

I haven't seen the fight, but I did have money on him so I feel you.

It was extremely frustrating to watch. Beerbohm was basically just trying to hold him. No attempts to hurt him or finish the fight. And Shaolin was letting it happen.

I was there, and they were getting booed out of the place, but Beerbohm didn't care. This was one instance where I fully support booing.

And honestly, Randlman had the same thing going. He wouldn't fight on the mat, which I fully understand. But he wouldn't fight on his feet either. Roger was walking him down, and Randleman wasn't doing shit. If you are going to force a fight to stay somewhere, do something. I jumped out of my seat when Roger dropped him with a knee. I just laughed when Randleman went to sleep with ihs slo-mo too late tap. I read the pbp on SD and it made it sound like he barely went out. He was laying on the mat napping for a good 45 seconds.

I will say this, Roger's standup is horrible. He is slow as hell.

Re: Strikeforce HEAVY ARTILLERY- MAY 15, 2010

Yeah but his standup doesn't have to be fantastic because he has the Nick Diaz effect going where he can just pop his arms out there and it's almost impossible to get inside if he works it right.

I thought it looked alot like a Klitschko fight in that respect.
