"So I was playing COD yesterday, and some flankenstein came up from behind and shot me."
I can't sort out just MMA but sports betting overall since January according to my spreadsheet I have lost about 4k. That includes horses, football, boxing, MMA, Baseball, Basketball and Hockey. Last year for 2012 I lost 12k total that includes a couple trips to the Vegas sports books too.

"Mathewson pitched against Cincinnati yesterday. Another way of putting it is that Cincinnati lost a game of baseball."
Because I love you all so much I added up jase1's claimed MMA bets in this thread

-100 on Sonnen vs. Silva 2
-20 on Buddy Roberts vs. Okami
-20 on Justin Lawrence vs. Max Holloway
-100 on Kaufman vs. Rousey
-100 on Bonnar vs. Silva
-5 on Tom Lawlor vs. Carmont
+11 on Waldburger vs. Catone
-10 on James Head vs. Pyle
-10 on Brookins vs. Poirier
+24 on Barry vs. del Rosario
-14 on Mitrione vs. Nelson
-5 on Thiago Tavares vs. Khabib
-5 on Rothwell vs. Gonzaga
+20 on Belfort vs. Bisping
+160 on Hunt vs. Struve
-100 on Gomi vs. Diego
+175 on Okami vs. Lombard
-300 on Diaz vs. GSP
-100 on Condit vs. Hendricks
+100 on Camozzi vs. Ring
-10 on Smith vs. McDaniel
-10 on Gonzaga vs. Browne
-20 on Tate vs. Zingano
-25 on Magelhaes vs. Phil Davis
+25 on Nelson vs. Kongo
-25 on Belcher vs. Bisping
-50 on Sonnen vs. Jones
-143 on Nelson vs. Miocic
-100 on Hendo vs. Rashad

Total loss is $727, 7 winning bets out of 29 placed (though to be fair jase does bet on a lot more big underdogs than big favorites).

Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
Buddy Roberts over Okami is the worst bet in that entire list.

Have you been punched in the head a lot in the past? There's more and more evidence of a connection between brain trauma and gambling addiction. I'm just letting you know this so that you can make informed choices, otherwise please continue betting on MMA for the good of us all.

My betting agency is offering money on the following

Conor McGregor to win a UFC title by the end of 2014 @+800
Conor McGregor to win a UFC title by the end of 2016 @+450


That sounds like awful odds. If he gets a title shot by 2014 (and he would surely only get one) and it was against Jose Aldo, surely his odds in the fight would be at or above +450 anyway. It's crazy to think you are getting the same odds now when he has fought once in the UFC.

Edit: I'm stupid

Wait, why does it pay out more if you think that he might win the title by 2016 as opposed to 2014? Better payout for more leniency? Like if he wins the title by the end of this year (lol) you'd win both bets anyway...

So I'm assuming you're fairly well off and budget for your gambling, because otherwise this is just nuts. Betting on sporting events can make them more exciting to watch and I could see myself doing it if I was making mid six-figures, but on an average person's salary the kind of betting you're doing qualifies as a full blown addiction.

Sports booking isn't the only thing I gamble on and most of my sports booking is done with money I have won from other forms of gambling. I am a part owner of a buisness that I bought into with money I made off gambling. Besides my business I make a lot of my money hustling people at pool and playing poker. I do play craps and roulette from time to time but that is not a major part of my income it's more fun just like sports booking. Usually what will happen is I play poker at my bookies house and what ever I win I let him keep that on credit then I bet it. So sometimes I don't even see the money. For instance a few weeks ago I won $900 at his poker game. He gave me $500 of that and put the other $400 in my sports booking account. That's most of the time I could care less whether I win or lose it just gives me something to root for when I watch the fights.

I just know my buisness is successful, I pay my taxes on all my gamble winnings, I am getting married next year and the wedding is almost fully paid for from gambling and a big chunk of that from a huge hit on the roulette table and basically everything I have in life is because of me gambling and people all my life have been telling me I am going to fail so I am used to people like you. For some reason people like you who want to tell me how awful I am always seem to be loving miserable and want to spread their misery to other people. I am a pretty happy and content with my life and the choices I have made and I know when I look back at how I lived my life I wouldn't change one loving second of it because it's been a blast so far.

So then if Kos does stay on his feet, which I don't think is a given, hes gonna be relying on his stand up, which is poo poo. I don't think he's got too good of a shot in this fight
