I parlay bet on niko price, Gregor, katlyn, and Camacho. Unfortunately, Camacho lost his fight by robbery. So that was a done deal for me. Then I had around 98$ left in my betting website. I then decided to bet on Dennis by gambling almost the whole $98, and Dennis also lost by robbery :( lol. I then deposit $50 to my betting website just to bet on jacare, and lucky jacare won the fight by ko. I'm basically new to betting and I'm kinda scared and have a feeling i might get addicted to it. Any advice? Lol :)
 
It's a lot of fun but judging make you want to break shit. You also notice shit during fights you usually don't notice
 
Why so much? Just bet on one fight with good odds which you are confident you will get right.

You'll get better and better at picking fights, so just practice and don't bet too much.
 
stay safe my friend

Set aside a certain amount and don't go over it. Play with your profits if you win.

If I bet money on these fights tonight I would have lost my ass.

Don't force bets, don't panic bet, have better bankroll management (ie dont bet 50% of your account, etc), don't play big favorites thinking they're a lock.

Gambling is more addictive than most things because you only get rewarded occasionally. You'd think intermittent rewards would make it less addictive but quite the opposite. Be real careful. Unfortunately it's affected a few people in my family. Gambling ruins lives.
 
In the long run. Never do parlays
The last time I was about to parlay bet, I got all 4 right, but i didn't officially bet because my bank account wouldn't let me at the time, and then the bellators event on Friday, I parlay 3 fights and won. This event, I parlay 4 fights and Camacho fuckin lost his fight despite winning rounds 1 and 3. So, I been actually doing decently on parlay bets. I like parlay bets because u can risk small $ but win big $. But yes I no the risk it has.

The thing I like about parlay bet is, we risk small $ and win big $. But I guess I'll try single fights next time.

Do you use tapology? It can help, as you can predict every fight and check how accurate you are and which fights you tend to get right, and which match-ups.

Sorry to hear that. I'll try to be smart with my bets man.

I use tapology to look at fighters page and fight events only. I don't use it for betting. Btw, I never even knew tapology has a betting thing going on.
