Really like Oklahoma +2.5 tonight
Houston -4 too
Stanford -9 but not as much as the first two.
 
Cmon Sooners. Gonna lose UH and probably Stanford but have a lot on Sooners and UBaylor pts for H and game so good start so far. Could win a lot today.

Also won on Gortat O18.5 pts/reb. That number is way low for him (usually around 21.5) and you gotta do overs when there's great value like that.
 
So did anyone else bet on Holm!!!! She was +1200 to win by K.O.... Eating steak for breakfast today my ******. I'ma Holm fan for life after that ****.

Thoughts on Oakland giving 3 points to Minnesota today?? (I only bet the NFL with low-conviction, especially my Vikings -- I'm infintetly better at predicing the machinations of the Jazz, than the Vikes.)

The IR is key, I think these Vikings linebackers will play.

Carr vs the Vikes CB's will probably be the deciding factor. Should be a showcase for the best Rookie WR's too, can't wait to see Cooper and Diggs.

So you actually put money on Holm?

Why the **** do you think im so excited? the betting line was actually way off what it should've been, I handicap these things.. The Psychology of the bettors was too one sided for me not to take a risk.. Certainly wasn't just tuning in to watch 2 dudely looking women fight...

Actually enjoying Rousey getting her comeuppance more than the bet.. TBPFH


This fight was the ultimate revenge for boxing,muay thai, kickboxing enthusiasts such as myself. I've been arguing this **** for years, people pretend like you can't get caught, til after it happens.. MMA folks have been going out of their way to extole the virtues of grappling, while bashing stand-up, since im in HS, many many years ago.

This was GLORIOUS. Wasn't the best fight I've seen this week though, that was Edwin Rodriguez vs Michael Seals (posted the video in the boxing thread -- craziest 1st round, best round of the year)

I bet on holm to (only 5 bucks though)
Also bet that it would go past the first round
 
I guess when people are so out of line on one side of the betting it makes sense to be on the other side. Eventually it'll pay off.
 
I started playing Texas Holdem about a week ago. So I was doing well last night in a no-limit $1/$2 cash game. I drew a 9 and Q, and got 10 and J on the flop (third card was an Ace). I risked it and bet BIG, and a guy called my bid. I got an 8 on the turn, and no full house or 4 of a kind was possible with the cards on the table. I put it all on the line, figuring only way to get beat is if the other guy had a K-Q and beat my straight, but what are the chances of that? One in ten million?

And of course, he had K-Q, and won the hand with the higher straight. I lost $260 in one hand. I WAS ENRAGED, and I withdrew my remaining funds from Bovada.

I think I'll be taking a couple of months break from gambling. lol
