Miller almost won by sub in the first couple minutes so you and the other guy wouldve won your longshot but then he got destroyed for the rest of the fight

Also just because its lame when people come in this thread to talk poo poo but never post bets, I put some money on Holloway because i think him at +130 offers some value, it could easily go either way though so when Swanson just knocks him out in the first round 30% of the time this will be one of those funny predictions people can laugh at

So basically like the first 3 minutes of the Felice fight. Got it.

This next fight is a good one for those guys that think its stupid to bet on MMA because "its so unpredictable", you dont really see 13 to 1 odds in the UFC often anymore, the stupid betting public is very sure of Jacare winning so if you think that Camozzi has a better than like 8% chance of winning then heres your meal ticket baby

Yeah....I didn't. The second that fight goes to the ground Jacare wins. Period. And he proved it.

EDIT: I didn't see any value in Machida/Rockhold either.

I've got well over a grand on Mayweather in various forms this weekend. Hit him at hard at -220, -210, -200, hard again at -190, and 12rd decision at -109. Super small bet on the draw at +1275 or some poo poo like that, in case of some Vegas boxing fuckery to get a rematch.

Also on Lomachenko/Rodriguez under 9.5 rds at +135 for a small bit of change.

By the end of the night I'll be popping black bottles at the bar ala The Money Team or drowning myself in a large bottle of Rebel Yell whiskey at home.

I love boxing y'all.

There are so many prop bets for the fight, it's awesome. I put a small bet on Mayweather landing more punches, and put some bigger bets on Mayweather by decision and Mayweather winning outright.

Miocic by decision is +340. Much better than I thought and might be worth a bet. If you're going to bet on Hunt you might as well take him by KO, he's currently at +245 ITD. Now watch as neither of these things happen.

Anyone betting on UFC 187?
Unibet has Cormier as a 1.73 favorite against Johnson at 2.10. I might be temptet into putting some on Johnson there.
They have Belfort as a huge underdog at 5.00, but I'm not betting against Weidman.

I'm not crazy about the odds on Cormier, but I might throw him into a parlay with the two flyweight locks, Weidman, and Browne. If either AA or Vitor wins I will be happy enough not to care that it got ruined.

(If this post looks dumb now, watch it look even dumber in four days.)

put a few bucks on a mad underdog parlay of pyle, arlovski and burkman. i very much doubt all three will prevail but i honestly think at least one of these guys could come out on top.

I've been lured into betting on MMA for the first time ever after watching Vitor Belfort highlights and and seeing the crazy odds for his winning in early rounds. Typically I'm very reluctant to bet at all (I'm a tonne of fun at casinos) but since I'm watching the show live at a bar with some mates I figured I'd spread half the aussie cost of PPV access (which is what I usually wind up paying for watching shows live) over Belfort taking the first three rounds.

Sportsbet has Vitor winning rd 1 at 13.00, rd 2 at 18.00 & rd 3 at 23.00. I doubt he'll have gas past the first two rounds at all but I still couldn't help myself from betting $15, $10 & $5 respectively. I'm still rooting for Weidman but it'll be easier to stomach his possible loss to a Vitor flurry with money on the table.

Ha I don't doubt that at all, given I can't stand losing money and had to google terms like 'parlay' and 'multi-bet'. Nobody I know really gambles outside of sitting at pokies, and I don't follow enough sports to have any experience or grasp on sports betting. But what specifically do you think I did wrong here? Did I manage to spread the money around poorly or just not respecting what the odds are telling me about non-TRT Belfort's chances? I know this isn't the "Teach dickheads a basic understanding of sportsbetting" thread but it would be nice to know in case I ever do this again.

you should not do that, you should instead bet your money on Daniel Cormier, a heavyweight who will be fighting a welterweight.

You bet $30. If Belfort wins in:

R1 you get $195
R2 you get $180
R3 you get $115

or you lose.

You could have put the $30 on Belfort finishing,, which is at 6.87 and returns $206, and you wouldn't have to worry about round 4 and 5

Sorry boys just a couple more quick questions. Which sites have Belfort winning at 6.87? The only Australian place I could find that takes bets on MMA was sportsbet which had it listed at 4.75. & what reason would they have for not falling in line with what I'm guessing are the offical/U.S/Vegas odds?

BTW If my soliciting for MMA gambling advice in a thread with :siren:DON'T BET ON MMA :siren: in the title is unwelcome please feel free to emptyquote and lmao the poo poo out of my dumb posts
