wow sorry to all those who picked josh thompson but wow, that fight was great!

[Bread]

I have to stop picking asians. mizugaki was only thing keeping me from a SUPER night. it was awesome as it was.

how nasty was that kick from behind by njok on that little boy??

[illmatick]

[Bread]

[raydog]

not thats a great gif...

[marabdl86]

That's why I don't watch mma. Who in the hell runs backwards like that in boxing? jesus christ

[illmatick]

love this play, old IFL vet with solid boxing and pretty good sub defense which he will need against Rafaello Oliveira, 70% of gunderson's wins are by sub

John Gunderson +150 x1

[squallsquall]

illmatick, what bookie do you usually use?

Thanks!

[illmatick]

illmatick, what bookie do you usually use?

Thanks!

bodog was my primary book for mma but due to a current dispute I no longer use them, Sportsbook.com is great for mma openers but I wouldn't lock up too much money there, last year I had to wait 5 months for a 900 dollar payout, they seem to have their shit together for now so I do have a small amount there

5dimes is #1, amazing book if you like to bet mma and boxing, especially when it comes to parlays in mma, on any given mma event I probably have 10-15 pending parlays, most combined with NBA/ncaaf, only beef I have with them is that they are not as fast at putting out openers

Cheers!

I don't really do parlays though, still receommend 5dimes as no 1?

[Bread]

5dimes is still number one. The ability to do parlays there puts them over the top.

You can find some great odds at Matchbook as well, but that's goes for all sports with them.

[spargament]

yeah a while back I tried to make an account at bodog (a couple people I'd help with mma picks swear by it), they didn't like my plastic...but they did have a customer service rep call me the next day without me asking trying help me make the deposit...I ended up on sportsbook which doesn't let me parlay MMA which is a bitch, so I'm opening up a 5 dimes account...MMA parlays are crucial especially because IMHO bookmakers are still feeling out MMA lines making for a lot of nice bets.

exactly! more times than not I end up making more money on my mma parlays than I do on my straight bets for each individual fight, bodog was nice for parlays as well but 5 dimes takes it to another level, 5 dimes lets me parlay boxing round props and bodog did not, huge upgrade for me

[jin2daj]

where is this from? the white dude's friends will never let this guy live it down. hahaah

[jin2daj]

I have to stop picking asians. mizugaki was only thing keeping me from a SUPER night. it was awesome as it was.

this is somewhat true, asian fighters have some stigma about cutting weight so i think they enter fights with a disadvantage.

[Bread]

From this past weekend's WEC fights...Njokami (sp?) is a beast...and knocked him out from a backwards kick. Another nice ca$her for ya boi Bread!

[squallsquall]

Thanks all for your help!

I don't really share your excitement over parlays, though. What you're doing is esentially just increase variance by re-investing all potential winnings in the next match... is there some special reason that you go for parlays?

[Bread]

squalls...I hear what you're saying. And I know the books make their money in the end by offering the parlays...or else they wouldn't offer it.

It amazes me how many books offer MMA but no parlays. dumb on their part.

WITH THAT BEING SAID!! On the right night, you can wipe up doing mma parlays. I know that goes for any sport, but you get more of a sense of confidence doing mma parlays (IMO).

Unlike many, i dont like to pile on a bunch of favs for a parlay. i like to throw in one dog. i wait for stretches to cash, but when i do, i love it. and i guess just the very fact that not many books do offer the parlay in mma, it's even more exciting when you hit one.

i just got a moist tip typing this.

[squallsquall]

Bread:

lol! I think I'll try a parlay when my 5dimes-account is active, who knows - I might just get hooked...

[RobbReport]

Horedecki is a tenacious young punk, cocky and not afraid to come at you. He knew he was outclassed mid-way and just couldn't run fast enough to reset.

always knew that his style would be his undoing if he didn't get his shit together.

[illmatick]

Cantwell is out for UFC 108 and I bought out of my play on Cole Miller, full list of my updated plays below


Martin Kampmann -170 x1
Jake Ellenberger-115 x1 + -135 x.5
John Gunderson +150 x1

parlay x 3.5

Martin Kampmann -240
Aaron Simpson-250

if Gunderson hits +170 I plan on adding another 2 units, probably going to be my best bet either way, also considering a small play on Jensen at +300

[illmatick]

still sitting on a shitty number with yvel, added hazelett and Jensen

Dustin Hazelett -122 x1
Ryan Jensen +285 x.75
Yvel +212 x.25

[illmatick]

decided to play miller again

cole miller -160 x1

[illmatick]

my top two plays cashed but the dogs came up short for me, -.55 units for tonight

Kampmann comes up big, have a few large parlays with him going into next saturday

[illmatick]

Mackens Semerzier -135 x2
Eddie Wineland -260 x1
Jamie Varner -115 x1
Rafael Assuncao +400 x.25
