The betting threads were not always like this. It's mainly with new posters and guys like Brick Top. You can tell how young and naive they are by their posting style. There is a reason that my post about him still being allowed to post despite his previous banning has a ton of likes. There is a reason a mod came in and supported it. There is a reason a lot of veteran posters quit posting in these threads. It's the same reason I've had several PMs bitching about how the threads are now. I know I rarely even follow them anymore unless I have a slow week at work.

You can see how obsessive he is to try to make his point in this thread alone. He randomly brings up the fight again and again when it's not even being discussed anymore. The irony is that if he loses the fight, he bitches and moans if someone rubs it in after his loss and acts like it's not a big deal. You can go back through these threads and see how many picks his so sure on that lose as well. Who gives a fuck if he sees someone at -400 vs. -200 when he's got murdered on other fights where he sees a ton of value? Over the years, I've never seen someone who acts like him (and there have been many) that turn out successful at betting.

Lol I've won WAY more than I've lost on this forum so far. If you're talking about the confident 5u bets, 3 have won and one has lost and they were all big underdogs. That's big profit for the people who tailed them. You can't win every bet and you've had some horrible losses too so I don't see why you're saying that. We're all on the same team here

Stop clogging up the threads with your long paragraphs. If you're so upset join the "veteran posters" and go away

same, at least if bisping loses me lot's of $ we get to see the most feel good mma story of all time!
 
Gutted about the Entwistle fight being off, not just because I had it in some bets but it would have been a fun fast paced one rounder.

Pushes the start time back about half hour too I expect, just have to treat it as another pint in whatever pub I end up in before going into the arena.

I seriously do not track anyone in this thread so I don't know who wins or loses consistently. I do know that the way u debate a fight at times comes off bad. You are not the only one. In fact we all may do it at times. But u do seem to do it more. And while I think u might be a good fight capper. The couple of times dudes have debated me in what I consider a rude way they have been wrong. No harm in being wrong. But when u are over the top and rude and then wrong that is another thing.
 
Do we think Doane lasts all 3 going up in weight on short notice against Bektic? Fight to end ITD @ +110 might be worth a stab.
 
Have bisping in a bunch of parlays. Most him being the last leg. Also have him parlayed with branch and the branch over.

That's it for me. Real light event. Saving my powder for the next 3 or 4 events. Will probably have 50k or more riding on 205.

I am against the majority on a few fights here like Perry & Stasiak(flame away). But I'm not betting them. Just not real confident.

Perry not on short notice, fight was announced late August I think.

ahh, my mistake

think i misinterpreted "quick turnaround" for late notice, think you're right
 
Since it seems like the fight analysis has stopped, does anyone think Bektic is a future champ? I've been thoroughly impressed from what I've seen of him
 
Brick Top said:
What you think @EzFlyer?
Click to expand...

yep, that's my read on the fight. i also bet it accordingly, seen in the bets thread. sadly, i have ITD -115 for both guys on 5d, which is the best available to me.

effectively i'm

6 bux doane rd 1 +1600
57 bux ITD both guys -115
25 bux bektic SUB +615
10 b ux bektic RD3 +1025

so basically 1u altogether, all in line with "not decision"

5 days notice, hawaii -> manchester. 135 -> 145.. i think he goes for it early and then gets worked over and finished

No. I'm as baffled with his hype as I am Khabib's

He's the Khabib of the FW division with less impressive wins. Still has a shit load of potential though just needs to stay active
