MMATycoon Posted April 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Just put a couple of bets on after the Wiman fight finally got added to my bookies 6 fold UFC - Jason MacDonald vs Nate Quarry (To Win Fight) Jason MacDonald -125 UFC - Tim Hague vs Patrick Barry (To Win Fight) Patrick Barry -350 UFC - Mauricio Rua vs Chuck Liddell (To Win Fight) Chuck Liddell -188 UFC - Sam Stout vs Matt Wiman (To Win Fight) Matt Wiman +110 UFC - Rashad Evans vs Lyoto Machida (To Win Fight) Lyoto Machida -188 UFC - Andre Gusmao vs Houston Alexander (To Win Fight) Andre Gusmao -275 $2.50 to win $36.45 Then $20 on Wiman at +110 (bit annoying that it's not +115 like everywhere else but never mind). I've broken rule #1 in that I bet against someone I've never heard of (Tim Hague) but a. the UFC want Barry to do well, I'm sure. b. Hague took 2 rounds to beat Sherman Pendergarst and a decision to beat Warpath, so that's as much info as I need (hopefully). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrus Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 The best shot here is Gusmão, IMO he'll submit Houston in the first! Which fighter you're picking to win? I didn't understood the write up --' If you're picking Hague, that's a bad bet man :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMATycoon Posted April 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 ALL those 6 have to win for me to win my first bet. The fighters I've bet on are the ones mentioned on the end of the line, just before the odds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrus Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Oh, then we got very similar bets Except that I play with Fantasy money xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Betting Fantasy here as well. Putting about 183$ on Stann, very risky bet, but just a gut feeling bet this time around, I see him stepping up to the challenge, and Krystof backing away. Could be completely wrong.

Guest Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 $50 on Wiman at +110, and another $50 on MacDonald at -110. I might also look at parlaying the two, and maybe adding a third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMATycoon Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Patrick Barry @ -350 vs that dude I dont know Sean Sherk @ -300 vs Edgar Yoshiyuki Yoshida @ -500 vs Wolff Trebles, 1 bet * $15.00 to win $15.86 I did make a bit of a woopsy though cos I got Yoshida mixed up in my head with Akiyama. I still think Yoshida will win but I wouldn't have bet him at -500 if I'd got the right guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jah Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Lets try to keep this thread with real bets then.. no need to mix fake money with real money. In regards to real money: Fight Pick | Risk | To Win | Odds | Fight Date | Date Placed Mauricio Rua over Chuck Liddell | $100.00 | $165.00 | +165 | 2009.04.18 | 2009.04.05 Brian Stann over Kryzstof Soszynski | $50.00 | $65.00 | +130 | 2009.04.18 | 2009.04.05 Xavier Foupa-Pokam over Denis Kang | $50.00 | $150.00 | +300 | 2009.04.18 | 2009.04.05 Jason Macdonald over Nate Quarry | $120.00 | $100.00 | -120 | 2009.04.18 | 2009.04.05 David Loiseau over Ed Herman | $120.00 | $100.00 | -120 | 2009.04.18 | 2009.04.05 Jason Miller over Kala Kolohe Hose | $415.00 | $100.00 | -415 | 2009.04.18 | 2009.03.20 As Long as Macdonald, Loiseau, and Mayhem handle business like they should, everything should be butter, and any of the aforementioned before have a decent or better chance at taking the W. So should be a solid weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Loiseau Shogun Staan Mir Bisping Everyone was so disappointed with shogun last time, Dana says if Chuck loses he'll retire. Everyone seems to think Chuck will KO Shogun, I think everyone will be wrong, shogun will look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMATycoon Posted April 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Epic fails all round then. Not amused with the Wiman judging. Wiman looked horrible but he still won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrus Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Epic fails all round then. Not amused with the Wiman judging. Wiman looked horrible but he still won. Agreed. IMO Wiman clearly won 3rd round.. The second went to Stout for sure.. And in the first, I think that Wiman was way more agressive, and won it too..

Guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 I profited a few bucks on the night. Won bets on Anderson and TJ Grant. Lost smaller bets on Prof X, Stann and Wiman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Lost $100 on Mac and Wiman, which is the first time I've lost money in a while. Just glad I didn't parlay the two. Wiman and Stout was really close. I think Stout did land better combinations in a close first round. Wiman really looked bad in the standup. He was constantly crossing his feet, and was only throwing the big right overhand. I was surprised he didn't stick with working for the takedown, instead of trying to play Stouts game. I also think it was really bad judgement by Wiman's corner to tell him he won the first round, and got the better of the standup. It was definetely close, and the corner should have told him in the third, that he might need a finish. Next event, doesn't look like there is much edge in any of the lines. I'll wait to see if Hughes can come down from -250, but I think he's a much bigger favorite already. Dan Miller might be a live dog, but I don't like it at the current line of +190. I'd really expect more like +300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMATycoon Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Anyone betting on Faber vs Brown? I would but my bookies is only UFC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMATycoon Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Nobody then? Personally I think Brown is a pretty great bet at -105. This is the era of the big 145lbers now. Faber dominated when there wasn't really much money in it. Now there is money in the 145lbers you'll get 155ers dropping down and you'll find a Gray Maynard-esque situation in a lot of fights.

Guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 Sorry can't choose the winner of that fight....which means no bet I'm more focused on strikeforce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMATycoon Posted June 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Lots of live dogs on 99 I think. I could see just about any of the main card dogs winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 There are some decent dogs out there, but nothing that jumps out at me. I thought Al-Turk would come in as a much bigger dog. I think he has a decent shot, but +300 just isn't enough for me. Betting $10 on Peter Sobotta +240 Betting $10 on Uno +170 Betting $30 on Hathaway -155 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMATycoon Posted June 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 If I was able to, I'd be doing a triple on Johnson, Winner and Tibau this weekend. I think it would work out about +180 or something. Unfortunately my bookies isn't covering those fights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately my bookies isn't covering those fights. sportsbook.com has got johnson and winner but they are really expensive. i would assume that u are talkin about a parlay card? sportsbook.com do not offer parlays either. not many do. ive actually not seen any that do but they are out there. guida is a real gym at 3-1. i mite put 20 on it. since ive not been a sanchez fan for a while and he looked laggy in his last fight at 155. any news on either of those fighters? also nate diaz has a pretty good price (-175) probly put a little on that to. have to wait and c how the red sox and phillies do today b4 i bet any tho.
