Outside of Mir beating Nog, there's nothing too outrageous.
Dang, their even list seems to stop at 72, and 71 was when I was certain Rampage would beat Chuck. Of course, the bookies probably knew that too but Rampage had looked like garbage on his way out of Pride.

I'm sorely tempted to put real money on Hominick and Shields. Are the odds on both still really long?

...which I don't understand as Thales had so little offense that Anderson nearly hit a step-behind foot sweep on him. Rounds 4 and 5 should have been 10-8 for the number of times he fell on his rear end to avoid getting hit.

I will take that bet for any amount you wish to gamble with is 1k fine with you?


By the way you might want to read this thread I started in Ask/Tell, I have been gambling since I was about 13 years old which is why losing the bet last night is not a big deal to me. I lose money on sportsbooking and I am not afraid to admit it but what I lose I make up for in gambling on pool and poker. Should we have someone hold the money for us so you will pay up on 07/08/2013?

Jase I enjoyed your gambling/hustling thread immensely and really admire your ability to bet dispassionately. Having never gambled on even the fights I was sure of, I hope you clean house on Spivak and live to spend all the winnings with your wife.

Just think of it this way: the only thing tough enough to kill you is an evil clone of you, and you're still going to kick its rear end by being strong enough to endure more poison. Send cancer to hell.

First of all, I am so happy he just up and beat that poo poo out of Hardy. That was very satisfying My heart feels like it's beating out of my chest. Monday Morning I am going to the dealer and ordering my wife her new car and she has no clue.
FUCKKKK that felt good. I still cant calm down or think straight right now. The sweat on that much money being gambled is unreal. I can't even really explain the range of emotions.
you lived more on this one bet than most of us will our entire lives :lol:

Jase1's wife informed me that Jase passed away early this morning. I know he loved this community and site. That last run of bets and everyone joining in really meant a lot to him.


To the admins and mods through conversations I had with him outside of SA, he did not want his account permabanned. If something has to be done maybe some text under his avatar.
drat, I saw the account online this morning and thought he might have been ok, but no posts since May 12th said something else.

Forget putting something under his account name; we ought to title PSP or even SAS for a bit at the very least.

I have a workout in the middle of the prelims so I can't even drink during the main card let alone gamble on it.

Might think about money on Makachev so if Oliveira wins I'm still happy. That was someone's play here for his last fight.

I hope the fix is in, but Anderson bet on himself and wins, and the Paul bros vlog their clown-rear end attempt at a manhunt.

Wasn’t Izzy smashing him up prior to a fortuitous eight count in their last match? Maybe I find Carl’s write-ups overly compelling, but I can’t square the betting line with the lack of MMA experience.

That's an unreal payout for something that feels so likely.
