Well most of the time I only bet underdogs so it's a no brainier who will win more. There are a few bets on favorites that I have lost but a majority are underdogs because the odds on the favorites suck. The thing is no one is going to bet the opposite of my picks because no one really bets much in this thread or if they do they post them after the fights are over with. I will gladly bet against anyone if they want on the next UFC PVV. I will make my picks and the can bet the opposite and we will see who wins. Of course this time I would have to do some research and not bet on all underdogs.

turntabler I'm probably going to play all of those guys except for Ellenberger. I see that fight either ending with Ellenberger getting an early KO, or Rory outworking him with his standup and winning a decision. Not sure how to play that fight yet if I do at all. Will post my bets later.

I've got small bets on Iliarde Santos @ +300 and Jose Maria @ +350.
They're both experienced fighters, and betting on Brazilians fighting in Brazil isn't a terrible idea. Lineker couldn't make weight, so he's going to be a bit drained, and as much as I love Uncle Creepy (bought the shirt) he's under a lot of pressure now.

I expect to lose those bets, but I think the odds are a bit long so worthy of a punt.

Bigger bet on Thales Leites. Tom Kong is a journeyman at best, his wrestling is not bad by UK standards but that means it's internationally poo poo. I think this might be a bit one-sided, -130 on Thales was too tempting.

Want the ultimate rush of not betting to win, but betting not to lose? Then do what I just did. gently caress instant gratification and big reward, let's turn this poo poo into bad banking. As long as Aldo doesn't win 50-45 (which is a real possibility), these bets pretty much cover every outcome for a tiny semi-guaranteed return.

Aldo wins inside distance -220
Sung Jung points handicap +9½ +330

Time to get a little Scalpulator in your life:
Bet 1: $22.00 @ -220
Bet 2: $07.44 @ +330
Total Investment: $29.44
Total Return: $32.00
Total Profit: $2.56
ROI: 8.69%

Basically it's a bet on (the judges not being idiots, already -EV I know) Not Aldo By 50-45 Decision @ -1049

Except for draws and NCs, but those are essentially negligible of course. I think I may have a new problem.

You lost money because you made a cowardly parlay. Parlays should only be made on long shots to win thousands. That and you bet on MMA.

Legit. The only bet I have ever made on MMA was a 5-way parlay on the Coleman-Couture card. I bet Sonnen, 3 other guys who also won (that I can't remember any more), and Coleman. Needless to say, it was extremely exciting and then really, really sad at that end. My $25 would have won me $1400, but instead I am just another goon who lost money betting on Mark Coleman.
