My buddy is telling me to ignore the -340 odds; put as much as I can allow myself on Woodley because it's free money. Somebody please talk me out of it.

Parlaying Kos with Diaz for tomorrow night. Kos is almost a sure thing so I pretty much did that so I could get even odds for Diaz/Condit.

fatherdog posted:Not really. Well I'm relativley new to following MMA (around UFC 100 I started following) so I reckon most posters here have stronger grip on this than I do...care to explain why? I realize "it's a fight and it only takes one shot", but when I heard this mathchup I expected at least a -300 price stamped on Kos.

fatherdog posted:It would probably be quicker for you to explain why you think Kos is "almost a sure thing", since there aren't many reasons to actually think that Nothing is a sure thing. That was probably too strong a statement to make. However unless Kos has an awful night, or overlooks Pierce (if there's such a thing), I don't see Pierce winning. Kos is as good or better at almost everything.

MrSmokes posted:Kos thinks his striking is a lot better than it really is. He gets hit a lot, and while he has power, so does Pierce. Kos has the wrestling advantage, but I don't think he has so much of an advantage that he'll reliably get Pierce down and keep him there. I see this fight consisting of a lot of standup, with Pierce having the edge. Kos really doesn't have a distinct path to victory in this fight like he did against Daley (wrestling) or Hughes (striking), and even Hughes was landing a lot at first. Solid points and fair enough. That being said I still don't think Pierce wins this fight. Kos by UD I'm thinking.

I really like Diego on Saturday, but want to parlay him with somebody. This card looks tough to call; what does everybody think? I'm leaning Diego/Stann.

Unfortuanatley, I didn't get to post some of my picks in here since I was out and placing the bets on my phone. They were all spur of the moment kind of bets. However, last night was probably my luckiest night of betting MMA ever. Won a 2 fight parlay with Mizugaki and Sanchez. Both were fights in which my pick arguably lost. Won a straight bet on Yushin Okami at +195 and was screaming at the TV "LAY ON HIM YUSHIN!" the entire fight. Won a straight bet on Mark Hunt at +175 and probably had the most fun I've ever had watching a heavyweight fight. I literally through 5 dollars to win 2 on Brian Stann just because, but it was well worth it. I finished up about 60 bucks for the event.

If I wasn't a Nate Diaz fan I'd be all over Thomson. Nate is at -210 at my book which is a bit loving absurd.

Draft King's lineup: (50k cap). Danny Castillo (10,900) Cody Garbrandt (8,700) Hector Lombard (12,100) Brad Tavares (9,300) Myles Jury (8,800) I picked Castillo because I had about 11k left over after picking my first 4 and wanted to fill out my lineup with another decent sized favorite (he's -235 at the moment). I picked Cody Garbrandt because Marcus Brimage sucks. I picked Hector Lombard because he's probably going to win and finish the fight and early. Those are all things you are scored on. I picked Brad Tavares because Nate Marquardt sucks (so does Brad but whatever). I picked Myles Jury because the betting odds on SER-O-NAY have plummeted in the past few hours (-210 to -160) and I think Jury is one of the most live dogs on this whole card. Plus you get some points for significant strikes and Jury's got great hands and Donald is very hittable. I was really tempted to pick the main event just because, but I'm emotionally invested in that fight enough. I typed a lot right there for losing 12 dollars.

Gross Weidman is down to -380 from -500. It probably means nothing but I don't like to see the line change that drastically in a short span.

Skip My Posts posted:The best way is to know other degenerates that use real life bookies This is how I bet. Sometimes if said bookie is stupid you can really take him. I'm kinda sorta friends with my bookie and he gave me Weidman +400 against Silva the first fight and +350 the second fight (we had tense drunk debates about who would win these fights and that's how it ended up eventually). Trying to get him to give me Conor even on Saturday since he pretty strongly feels Mendes will win but I'm not willing to meet the minimum he's making me bet. Bovada is the best site I've used. Your payouts come pretty timely and it's a shady rear end check from Hong Kong but it's perfectly legal. If you don't feel like giving it to a teller you can always just put it in the ATM and it clears just fine.
