God has cursed me with making bets. Every time I made a bet which involved money, I always lose. The last time I won was Weidman vs Silva II. I bet on Weidman and still didn't win shit because I felt bad and gave my buddy back his $250.
Fuck my life!!!
I haven't bet that much, but If I'm in to the fights I tend to do quite well with all the prefight hype research.
The fastest money I lost was the first time I bet on MMA and put 50 euro on a well known fighter (can't recall) like in 2010 in KOTC or Cage Rage, got KO'd at 0:11 first round. Pretty much killed the fun in betting for me right away.
Years later, it was a few events before Nate Conor I started testing with putting a lot of accumulator bets for like 1-10 cent or something but like all these ridiculous choices so if all the dogs would win you'd get thousands back.
Won a few hamburgers worth, but it was all like Fight nights with randoms.
Then UFC 196 Conor vs Nate 1 blessed my life with 7:2 Nate on submission.
I had bet Nate to win, nate on sub, nate on the under, miesha tate to win, miesha tate on sub.Also Nate on the under .
When tate got on Holm's back we were all screaming and high-fiving
Fight night 87 ubereem - arlovski was easy money too.
I had ubereem, de randemie, gunnar nelson. Only loss when Bigfoot KO'd Struve.
Then I also had my good (most units bet) accumulators running on UFC 203 like 10 fights each and 10 euro each acca.
I cashed out one before the Stipe - Overeem fight, so was already like way up on the night, but the other one I still had runnin could have trippled me.
Then my ex comes back home drunk, I was leaning towards cashing out because I was worried of Ubereems glass chin.
So I ask her like So I already made x money, but I can cash out this ( points out ) more. Should I cash out or let it roll ?
"You already profited ? Ahhhh just let it roll fuck it!!"
I made a real good earnings on MMA betting in total, but then I tried some shots on BlackJack on the same site.
Ended up blowing it all on black jack, and then some.
Lessons to be learned:
- NEVER bet on fights you have no clue wtf these guys are unless you have them in accas with minimal investment and high return
- ALWAYS bet HW fights to win by TKO/KO
- NEVER bet any Overeem fight unless Ubereem is beating up the elderly.
- Listen to your own sense of reason
- Accas are great but If you raked up a pofit don't let them roll for too long if you already made some good money, cash out
- Bet on a site where you can disable yourself from casino games, and ALWAYS cash out your profits. Deposit only on fight night what you need.
