    also, i'm declaring to all Philadelphia-lawyer types who may come along between now and the entry deadline that PARLAYS DO NOT QUALIFY AS BETS FOR THIS CONTEST...

    this should have been explicitly stated in the OP, but I saw that every entrant before me was assuming/observing this restriction

    sbrBreadman...if this is wrong and parlays are allowed, i'd definitely like to rewrite my ballot before the first throw-down

    what effort we expend in the pursuit of 50 bucks

    good luck to everyone on their bets this evening

    These bets are correlated. If Lesnar wins in round 1, then he will win on the moneyline and inside the distance. This makes it too easy for you to win. If Lesnar wins by KO in round 1, you win all 5 of your bets and will likely win the contest. I don't like that.

    it doesn't matter much, you can't post picks after the event starts for a contest. That is basic stuff. I'm all for his strategy which anyone could have used.

    That's why MMAth rarely computes. Good cash on the Lesnar fight. What was Lesnar win by Decision?

    TL/DR alert

    fitting that if Dana & Co. had just given Holm the Immed.RM (one of the very few cases--along with Carlos and perhaps TJ--where it would have actually made some sense...contrary to the normal case of pushing for the one-sided beatdowns like those suffered by Barao, Cain, Weidman, or Ronda to rerun right away, whether anyone wants them or not)...the picture could have very easily remained a nice marketable situation to buy more time with until "the sports' most dominant champion that's ever cowered behind a pillow" could be coaxed to come back from her brilliant acting career (rave reviews currently in for playing the chubby thumb-wrestler in a MetroPCS' production)

    but no, Dana had to be a dick and let his petty squabble with Holly's manager get in the way...and now he's stuck with his first openly-Gay/Lesbo champ with the marketability of a dish-cloth but the punching power of George Foreman...so now it's infinitely harder for him to lure the Hip-tossBot back for one more well-paid octagon session (which would double as a great fading-opportunity for sharps to fleece all the "she's back" fans)

    i hate all this WWE-style bullshit but do love it when it blows up in their face (god bless you Nate)...my only stake in this bit of UFC stupidity is that I'm holding a "Tate over Rousey"+600 ticket (good till end of this year) from when DSI first hung it a few months ago...what would have been my sharpest "early bird" play ever now turns into a drag on my bankroll

    love MMA but hate the UFC's virtual-monopoly over it
    ___________

    don't know what the Brock, DEC play was...but can't figure out why I didn't take it over the smaller-pay GTD...not like Hunto was a threat to grind out a decision, was it?...be a shame if i don't score the life-changing $25 because of it

    bread, re: the 25usd prize

    can you just zap say 420 full-strength sbr's into my ac--a bit (12%) more than the 375sbr that the going 15sbr=1usd(in sportsbook with 5x roll) would suggest (to account for the rollover drag)

    also nicely divisible into three shares at a lucky 140sbr each...all three of us are pros, so would be dead easy to spread the joy this way

    sbrBreadman,

    for future such events, I suggest the following 2 stipulations be made, beyond those that existed this time

    1) only single straight-up bets are allowed (ie. no multis/accumulators/parlays)
    as if someone were to hit just 1 uber-high-payout multi-teamer, they could easliy demolish all the 4-1 or 5-0 cards in the contest...

    any single bets offered by any book you could find on sbr-odds should be allowed...but not any multis/accas/parlays derived therefrom

    2) in the same vein, but to a lesser degree...only 1 bet per fight should be allowed to eliminate the sort of correlated layering that snapperman objected to above

    thus if a contest specifies a max# of bets on a card to be "x"...then up to "x" bets may be made but no more than one bet may be placed on any given fight on that card

    ...that is all
    __________________________

    when can i expect the prize (in rough $1=16.8 full-strength sbr equivalent as I made a case for in the previous post...BTW, thanks for the extra 5 points which i just noticed now!)
