I know it doesn't work this way, but I have seen you inexplicably defy odds, reason and basic sensibility so many times that I irrationally hope you do it again.

man gently caress cancer. I love reading about your bets but especially when you make spite bets. Easily my favorite is the bets against colby and rubbing it in chud faces

I hope you still manage to beat the odds against the biggest bookie, god

I was shooting the poo poo with a good friend of mine the other day who told me he had a sports betting "system" (college basketball) and i thought of Jase's exploits. I said "I should be on mma" fall facetiously and decided to check in on this thread. im so sorry you're going through this Jase and thanks for sharing all your great stories, insane and inspired bets, and everything else

Thanks friends. So I have a 200k bankroll and I’m thinking that I’m gonna place the biggest bet I have ever placed on UFC 272. I might just bet the whole 200k on one fight.

I was going to do this on Super Bowl weekend but I was too sick from the chemo to be able to figure out what I wanted to do. My question to you guys should I bet on masvidal?

He’s probably going to lose and if I lost 200k because of Colby Covington I’d probably die even without cancer helping out. You’re a tougher dude than I though and I can’t say that fight wouldn’t matter a whole lot more to me if I knew you’d laid that bet

Yeah, definitely don't do the big bet on something fuckin' Colby Covington can ruin. If you're going to do a blaze of glory upset bet on 272, I'd go dos Anjos over Fiziev. He's the best live dog on the card.

Greg hardy is a piece of poo poo who’s fun to bet against, does anyone remember anything about Spivak to have a real pick there?

Jase, I post like once every two years now but I still lurk and am sorry to hear this news. gently caress cancer, but also gently caress Masvidal. I think he gets tagged with something dumb and gets knocked out, but maybe if we're lucky it'll be a double KO and no one wins.

Are there any other big f guys coming up? Like what about ufc273?

gently caress I would really like to see Greg hardy lose. I might be tempted to bet on that fight.

Jase brother this is like the only thread I truly regularly post in and it's mainly because of you. I love you and your posting and this is devastating. like that other guy said though, if anyone is going to beat a 1% chance it'll be you.

Masvidal would be an interesting bet, he's a big dog with a definite chance. gently caress Greg Hardy so sure, bet on Spivak as well. i dunno any others aside from Gathje in a couple months.

having said that, I'll pull my best INRI impression and say that you're welcome to bequeath it to me and I will make 5/10k bets with it every PPV until it's lost or I have enough money to build a memorial pool hall in some seedy Midwest town

Just wanted to pop in and wish jase1 well.

I stopped following MMA probably 7 or 8 years ago, but I kept this thread bookmarked and check in on it regularly. On a Sunday morning when I'd know there was a big UFC event the previous night, I'll check out the results and jase's bets to see how it went. It has been a fun ride and jase has been a great main character for this thread. Best wishes to jase and family.

I actually miss INRI why did he stop asking? He might have caught me at time when I wasted out of my mind and I would have sent it to him. Also does anyone remember the dude who had a spreadsheet on me? I would honestly like to know if he kept that up so I could see my final record in here.

I like the idea of betting on the most unknown fighter on the card. That would be a fun sweat to watch them lose in like 30 seconds. If I win I’m gonna spend it all on my wife and to be honest I have so much emergency cash stashed in various places after I collect it all I will probably still spend all that on her. She’s a loving saint for taking care of me right now especially since I’m at my worst. I was thinking about buying a maybach s for her. She has always talks about how cool those cars are when we see them.

I appreciate the kind words. It helps a lot when Im having a pretty tough time with the chemo right now. I was reminded the other day when I would be posting and laughing in this thread that my wife always busted my balls by saying are you playing with your internet boyfriends again. This is the only place I post on the internet and rarely venture out of SA because Im just not a tech guy and I don’t trust the internet so this place means a lot to me and your kind words go a long way.

Jase I've been following your escapades since the original pool hall thread (holy poo poo that was a decade ago) and they're so much fun to read.

Whatever you bet on this card I wanna make the same bet with far less zeroes so I can experience what it's like to be you. How do I do that as a Canadian that's never sports betted before?

Jase, I don't remember if I've ever posted in this thread because my bets are basically only one-digit bets on hugely unlikely parlays (since those seem like my best chance of graduating to a hundrednaire), but it's always a fun read, and seeing your bets before an event has added much-needed drama to a bunch of fights over the years. I'm glad you and your wife are there for each other -- I'd say go for a Maybach for mrs. Jase over an all-or-nothing gamble for the excitement of Goons. You could bet a single dollar and we'd still be invested at this point. Rooting for ya as always!

That was me, I was underemployed and bored at the time. I still have it, ends July 2017.

e: if anyone wants to scrape the data, I can finish the graph. I need amount wagered, and total winnings for each bet.

200k on Spivac -220

Even my bookie double checked with me to make sure it was real. It’s the single largest bet I have ever made in my life.

The very first bet I ever made in my life was trying to beat my Uncle in putt putt when I was 11. I bet him $5 I could get a better score. It was all the money I had. My parents gave it to me for my good grades in school. My uncle showed no mercy and demolished me and took me 5 bucks. I cried all night and my mom and dad were pissed at my uncle. Little did I know that was the start of this insane loving journey that lead me to this. One thing I have never done in my life is beat my uncle in pool. It’s the one thing I failed at more than anything else. It’s kept my drive all theses years and what has made me successful. I don’t know why I’m sharing this I guess I’m just rambling and reminiscing about my life.
