Awful start to the night, but I roughly broke even afterwards, throwing away an additional 0.3u live-betting Vick after round 1 at +175.

Then I made a lot of money on the main event and wish I had put even more, in retrospect. Oh well, it's a nice +6.2u profit and I'm very close to quadrupling my initial deposit from middle October of last year now.

geeze im on every fight.. highly suspect behavior
Good Luck

Officially my worst betting night yet, down 6.7 units
Not actually that bad but I was up over 5 units after the Bermudez fight but then lost the rest until Ngannou.
The two bets which really pissed me off were Rivera and Jury who imo didnt try hard enough.
Had Luque and Barb to go the distance which hurt and potentially the Barb decision.
anyway, no sweat looking forward to Prague!

Roller-coaster of a night. Vick fought fine, took some good shots, gave some good shots, and lost to the better man; plain and simple. Fili fought smart, I'll give him that, but Jury with no urgency or plan in Round 3 was bewildering.

Thanks to everyone who argued for Ngganou. I was originally thinking Cain and changed my side because of the forum.

19u and Family Day tomorrow in my province so no work, cherry on top!

Underdog bets on Nik Lentz & Aljamain Sterling got the prelims started right, and UFC debutante Kron Gracie made it look easy on the main card- only wish I bet him bigger. A last minute bet on Francis Ngannou in the main event capped off the night nicely for another 12.43 units profit.

How does that come to 19u, isn't it less than 2.5 u?
 
Down about 3u, been on a decent run so been expecting it and after yesterday I'm not too bothered. Well done all and on to the next one.

Live betting and adding during the event are both to blame for the bad math there. I rarely add different bets from the ones I’ve posted here pre-event (ie chase) but I do quite often add to my existing bets. I’ve always liked to see the fighter walk out and get a gut read on them. It seems to have served me well to date. My small unit to dollar size let’s me get away with it but I realize it’s a habit that I’m going to have to reign in a bit.

For transparency purposes, it would be a waste of my and everyone’s time to post an accurate list of bets after the fact. Alternatively, to post who I’m betting on beforehand with no wager amount at all is equally uninteresting. I guess I meet it in the middle.

Ngganou was the one who I had planned to add more to so he was my main in-event play last night. We know how that went...

I try my best to be a useful, transparent contributor here so apologies if it didn't come across that way. Appreciate the question.
