Ever since centsports got merged and lost MMA, I've got nowhere to bet my dollars. I think it's safe to leave your money with bodog or whatever they renamed themselves. A lot of the guys in the Football betting thread are at least, and it's not shutting down, just moving domains/countries to seek shelter from more gambling laws I would imagine. Sportsbook.com is where I have my money and they do MMA, though I haven't bet on it. Haven't cashed out yet either, but it looks simple/standard enough. ($5 minimum bets though)

I really don't ever bet on MMA, but I want to have a dog in the fight when I watch this tomorrow so I made some small bets on Brock and Diaz. If they pan out, great, if not then hey I probably got to watch a decent fight unlike the last 2 boxing matches I spent money on.

You pampered motherfuckers don't know poo poo. I'm going to have motherfuckers pampering my poo poo every hour on the fuckin hour when I get rich off of this bet. $2.09 on my boy Nick Diaz from the 209.

Half unit shot on Bonnar +150. I'm sure this poo poo is probably fixed, and I wish Bonnar was juiced to the gills like in his last UFC fight, but I still like his odds here if there's any chance this isn't a fix. Plus now I have a reason to watch these old dudes fight now. God knows I'm not watching Bellator otherwise.

Seltzer posted:Can you explain draftkings to me briefly and how it's circumventing online betting bans? Do you only win if you beat other people in a tournament, or do they get away with this by converting money into fantasy points and then back into money? It's exploiting the loophole in the law meant for your fathers old office fantasy football pool. They are considered a "Game of Skill" and wagering isn't tied to the performance of a single player or game, so it's entirely legal under US Law. The real answer is that the leagues are getting poo poo tons of advertising dollars from these companies so they don't care/aren't pushing to make them illegal.

Seltzer posted:So you can put 50 bucks down on one event spread it out then cash out based on your bets? I thought you had to beat other users of the site or something like that. It isn't a moneyline bet, it's scored like fantasy football and played like fantasy football. Basically you craft a roster that you think will score you the most points based on their scoring system, enter it into either tournaments (1000s of people, big payouts at the top), Leagues (generally around 25 people, top 3 win), 50/50s (top 50% win, -110), or h2h (player vs. player, -110).

$500 on the Reem -155 $200 on Jędrzejczyk +135 $50 on dos Anjos +455 (I know that I'm throwing money away here, but I hope to get more than 14 seconds out if it like when I did this betting against Ronda.) I can't pull the trigger on Brown, and they're no value there judging by how much better shape Hendricks is in.

$20 on Felice +115 She's had an easy weight cut and is in better shape than I've ever seen her in. Paige looks scared, and is inexperienced. She's also a Chicago girl, so I irrationally bet on her. Watch me throw money away!

Added Miller +120 for $10. No real reason other than gut feeling and my inner degen wants to throw more money around so that I have something to do tonight besides watch the Rays game that I also bet on. Fights are way more entertaining to bet on.

Herring came in with too much muscle and not enough cardio/conditioning. Which was my main concern after watching the weigh ins having placed my bets. She nearly had Van Zandt in the 1st though. Her ground game before she gassed was on point though. I was at dinner when Miller was fighting. How bad did I lose that one?

I've got well over a grand on Mayweather in various forms this weekend. Hit him at hard at -220, -210, -200, hard again at -190, and 12rd decision at -109. Super small bet on the draw at +1275 or some poo poo like that, in case of some Vegas boxing fuckery to get a rematch. Also on Lomachenko/Rodriguez under 9.5 rds at +135 for a small bit of change. By the end of the night I'll be popping black bottles at the bar ala The Money Team or drowning myself in a large bottle of Rebel Yell whiskey at home. I love boxing y'all.

Mayweather dropped to -175 at a certain book in Vegas this morning. Thank god I'm not there or I'd be dropping another grand on him at that price.
