Next time all the goons are betting on something please remind me that goons are dumb, and I'm a goon, and I'm dumb

it happens naturally, if goons try to bet on who they want to lose or become self aware in any way it wouldn't work anymore, it's organic

I tossed $10 to win $15.50 on Mendes last week. I was sucked in. :(

Soo any good fights to parlay with Rousey for UFC 190?

Bodog gave me a 20% deposit bonus, so I kissed goodbye to 50 bucks and got 60 to play with.

10 on Cathel Pendred to win 8.70
5 on Tim Means to win 8
20 on Dennis Burmedez to win 9.52
15 on Mendes to win 23.25
9 on Robbie to win 13.05.

And a 1 dollar parlay on me loving up every single one of those bets, in which case I get 18 bucks back.

i am so good at this

for this next magic trick i will turn 50 bucks into 22.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Hey, how's everyone doing? Good? Good.
I won $12.50, and you all lost like what, a collective 3 grand or something? I'm not here to boast about Conor, the bet I had the least faith in on this card. No, I am here to chastise everybody except the one other person who also bet against lovely, lovely poo poo man Cathal pendred. Howard split decisioned UFC golden boy Urijah Hall on short notice -- that's more than enough to believe he would beat pendred. You got what you deserved: a mendes loss.

For all the talk of how Shields was one of the best a couple of years ago, if he loses this one, he won't have a leg to stand on.

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.
I put some money on the Duff man. It wasn't a good value but given Frank Mir's age, belly, and chin it felt like the odds should have been further apart than 2:1.

Ehh, I feel like any lovely heavyweight fight with an underdog greater than +200 is a solid bet. Hell, even the not lovely heavyweight fights have a ton of upsets. Mainly via Werdum.

Got a couple parlays with different combination bets on Sarah Moras, Josh Thomson, and Frank Mir, plus a straight bet on Sarah Moras since she looked in the best shape of her career at the weigh ins plus since she's at +350 to win.

There was a brief time when Edgar was champ and Dunham kicked Sherks rear end and looked to a legitimate threat to Edgar. I remember being worried that his length could give Frankie trouble. Then Melvin of all people starched him and ruined his career.

I got Pearson at -210, he's currently at -240. And agreed. Pearson is a top-notch boxer and I also feel like he has fared much better against stiffer competition.

If anybody has any strong feelings on Leites vs Bisping I'd be interested.

Him kicking sherks rear end involved sherk having the best round of his life, the only time he ever managed to gently caress somebody up with gnp, and then he gassed and evan boxed him. sherks whole thing was he wouldnt gas for five rounds. he gassed in 1 round. he wasn't the same fighter. and besides that, before he gassed he had the most glorious, dominant, violent round of his entire 30+ fight career. Dunham is basically a big, tough, goofy gently caress. he never looked good to me. I always thought the perception of him as being a super talented fighter because of the sherk fight was based more on the value of the name than what it really showed

My gift to you. I need to either settle up with my bookie because I am over the 10k limit in winnings or I spoke to my bookie and he is letting make 1 more 1k bet before I have to cash out and start over from 0. You guys get to pick what fight I bet on and I will make that bet. Please choose a fight from the UFC event tomorrow as I will be playing poker and be able to watch it.
