I hate myself.

The lines dropped sooo much on those props. I can make the same exact bet now 3u to win 1 (I had to put up 4.4u to win 1u yesterday)

Thinking about a stevenson/dan miller parlay...I think they both win but are too expensive at the current lines.

Whats the deal with the Makdessi-Audinwood. I know Audinwood was smoked by Tavares. And Makdessi is a student of GSP. Anyone familiar with either or both of these dudes.

Makdessi is more of a 1 dimensional flashy stand up fighter imo. In the interview I posted above, Helwani asks him about his ground game. Makdessi didn't exactly sound confident when he replied, he was just talking about being a student of martial arts.

Audinwood is more of a complete fighter, and has a definite grappling edge, which imo is important. Makdessi's flashy kicks could be the turning points in the fight where Audinwood just brings him to the mat. He also trains out of Team Bombsquad, where Jon Jones originally came out of.

Got all my bets locked in for this card. Really confident in my Stevenson play, I just do not see Danzig winning this fight.

I imagine Miller will win but honestly I am just not that impressed with him. I'm not sure why. I admit he may fall victim to quality of competition. Seeing him get his ass kicked three times in a row against Sonnen, Maia, and Bisping probably made an impact on me . . . but I have the mental faculties to understand that Doerksen is no Sonnen, Maia or Bisping.

Then again, except for a gassed out Tom Lawlor, I suppose Doerksen doesn't have any meaningful recent wins. He's lost to CB, J-Mac, Ed Herman, and Paulo Filho.

So yeah, I guess Miller will win. I would definitely be hesitant to bet him at that line, though. Although I will say looking up his record on Wiki and seeing "Ninja Choke" as the method by which he subbed John Salter is pretty awesome.

P.S. GSP/Stevenson could make a solid parlay. You should be able to get them together at about -160.

Re: UFC 124: GSP vs. Koscheck II to take place in Montreal

Well I decided on just a straight bet on Stevenson. Thanks for the input, and I think Miller will win as well. But I've already layed enough on this card so I am not going to push it. The only bet left that I am considering is a straight bet on Koscheck @+400 or better for a half unit or so, I don't think he should be +400.


Just watched the press conference...GSP definitely gave an "intense" vibe at the end, in his last answer to a question and during the staredown. GSP basically owned Koscheck, saying the pressure is actually on him because after Koscheck loses he will have already lost twice to GSP and will never be back challenging for the WW title again.

I think Kos is the play. GSP is going to beat him, but at least Kos has some tools to win that fight.

I guess I forgot that Doerkson lost to Ed Herman. Miller is better than Herman at the same style. Both have good solid wrestling, and both have good bjj off thier backs. Both have shit hands and are slow. Makes me want to bet Dan Miller there. Doerkson is a tough journeyman, but I think I have a habit of giving these journeyman too much credit... they are always competitive and can catch anyone, but they always lose.

Miller has some quality wins over tough competition. Rosholt, Horwich, Kimmons, John Howard... those are quality wins. And they would all be favored over Doerkson, IMO.

Still not going to bet it, but he is going to win.

So Makdeessi trains under GSP, but his wrestling sucks?
