It wasn't a goon and sites don't let you bet that much on wrestling.

Are you talking about the screenshot of someone betting several thousand (or tens of thousands) on Undertaker vs Lesnar?

If it was it was way over the maximum allowed wrestling bet on that site, if not almost every site only allows bets under $100 on wrestling.

Pretty sure you are right, but then after he claimed he was exaggerating his bet amount. Great... now I have to go searching for it.

Flankensttein: A name given to a FPS gamer who constantly flanks to get kills.

"So I was playing COD yesterday, and some flankenstein came up from behind and shot me."
I can assure you my bets are real. I am a loser overall in sports betting but makeup for it in poker and shooting pool and this year roulette has been very good to me. I do so much gambling that most of the time when I lose money on sports booking I already have it paid for from a winning session in poker. My bookie also run poker games and I just leave half my winnings with my bookie for sports betting. Like right now I have about 6k in credit with him because I don't bet much unless it's football so most of the money I bet on sports I never even see and it's not coming specifically out of my pocket. I actually only bet on MMA because of this thread. I enjoy reading the posts and enjoyed my small winning streak that made me the almighty prophet jase1 but that didn't last very long.

Even weirder. If 100 is your max bet why would you even risk it at those odds? He could have won about a dollar. So if he bet any money whatsoever, lol.

I just noticed that Cain is a -500 favorite on most sites, which seems waaaay off to me. Cain is the overall better fighter except for his BJJ, but I don't think he's so much better that he should be that big of a favorite, especially considering how much time he's taken off. Werdum's striking has gotten really good, and Cain won't want to take him down. Even in the clinch, Werdum has pretty good knees and elbows. Just seems like a small underdog bet on Werdum is the only thing that makes sense.

Counterpoint: Cain is terrifying.

I think if Mark Hunt was fine in Werdum's guard then Cain will be too.

I think if Bigfoot went five rounds with Hunt, he can take a jab from Frank Mir.

(Actually, I would not be totally shocked if this fight ends similarly to Cro Cop/Gonzaga 2. Cain does things that don't make sense.)

I think your other points have some merit but I think Cain probably will want to do everything to him

Yeah considering Condit's tank is unlimited and alves'... Not so much a late stoppage is on the cards but I think it'll be done earlier.

So I entered a $3 pool on DraftKings tonight where the winner gets a chance to go to UFC 189. I tied with 8 other people. Tiebreaker next week.

Yes you will lose more often than not when you bet on underdogs, yes sportsbetting is a losing proposition long run for the most part, but not for the reason "MMA is unpredictable and you lose sometimes" or whatever people seem to think



The two sports I mainly watch are MMA and NBA and between the two of em I'd way rather bet on MMA. Point spreads are waaaaay more affected by refs in arbitrary and silly ways than the average MMA fight.
