    Hell yeah, that's how I do it too.

    I bet on Cerrone, personally. I didn't include him as a pick.

    I was referring to my Camozzi/Carmont thread. Everyone laughed when I said Carmont's highlights looked impressive.

    They weren't laughing at the thought of Carmont having a chance against Carmont - they were laughing at how you had based your opinion - through his highlight reel - didnt necessarily mean that they thought Camozzi was the better fighter.

    Exactly -- I made a small play on Carmont even though I was the one who said he had beat cans. It's like the old bear story... If a bear is chasing 2 slow dudes. Slow dude number 1 only need to run faster than the other guy. Carmont did look much sharper than his previous fights IMO. And that's probably due to his progress at Tristar.

    Hell yea!!! I completely agree.

    I only use 5 dimes for prop bets and parlays (which I am probably gonna stop I think because I haven't been doing too well with those and need to go back to my roots making $cash$ money with just big str8 bets), and those are small money plays.

    Yea next day cash outs, easy pay ins and outs - definitely a big plus. If any of you out there have this option, go with it, or if you don't, ask around in your friend circle or ask some friends at your work or something - you'd be surprised at how many people have access to direct books. It is an actual website that I play with(coast2coastsports.com), but I pay in and cash out via my friend who works for the site. Very easy, and they take pretty large plays. I can lay down almost anything that doesn't allow me to profit more than a grand on one play, therefore winning more than a grand on str8 bets is quite easy with this method, where on 5 dimes and other sites they would never let you make a str8 play that pays out near that much.

    For serious money making, obviously I've heard the way to go though is vegas - supposedly mgm will take up to 10k bets on str8 mma money lines no problem and no questions asked (and you know when you play big money like that they are all on your nuts and are gonna comp everything for you!). Once my bankroll reaches that, which I hope to do so in the next 9 months, I might make a run at high stakes vegas plays where I live in some shitty apartment and take my try at being a real gambler, devoting ALL my time to mma research and analysis This is a just a dream, but who knows where the sport might take some of us - its not bad to think big!!

    Believe it or not - its very common. I know about 20 people / friends in my immediate area who go through my guy and my site, and I've been courted by other books who want me to play for their sites. I'm telling you, if you're stateside ask around, people are taking plays all the time. I don't know anyone in so-cal who wants a bookie and can't find one...

    WTF are you talking about? I had based no opinion in that thread. The point of the thread was specifically because I had zero opinion on the fight. Again, WTF are you talking about?!

    Someone said he didn't look impressive in his videos, and I commented that I thought his highlight reel looked a bit impressive. If you took that to mean that I think Carmont is going to win the fight just because I saw his highlight reel, then I don't know what to say to you.

    If you assumed "His highlight reel looked a bit impressive, no?" was a based opinion that he was going to win the fight, then you are certainly not the brightest tool in the shed.

    You had "zero opinion on the fight" yet you wrote on previous page... "I was on Carmont, but after you guys talked up Camozzi, I ended up siding with him. That was really dumb of me. I've just made a lot of dumb moves. Lessons to be learned." So you were on Carmont but had zero opinion on the fight?

    You put "His youtube highlights are kinda impressive, no?" .... I'm not sayin that you were necessarily basing any opinion on Carmont from the highlights, but that was how the other guys who flamed on you perceived it. So they were mocking you by showing highlight reels of Bob Sapp - they werent all saying go and bet on Camozzi - that is my point.

    Nothing I said in that thread indicated or implied that I was siding with Carmont. I was siding with him personally, but I didn't say anything to let any of you know that. Every single person who took "His highlight reel seems a bit impressive, no?" to mean that I think he is going to win, is a complete moron. That is all I have to say.

    Well you admittedly make plays on fighters you know nothing about. Carmont and the other time you tried to chase with Ben Rothwell over Hunt. Also, not knowing who Ben Rothwell is goes to show how new you are to the sport.

    Mitrione is my favorite play. I'd take Vera, if the line was good. But the juice is too high. I'll probably end up betting Marshall at that price. Which is probably a dumb idea, 'cos at first glance of the card, I felt Vera would be the best bet. I'm also betting on Palaszewski, but I'm not making him a play. I've liked Nick Diaz since the fight was announced, but I wasn't feeling confident enough to make him a play. I'm taking him at -105, though. I don't feel too great about this card. 138 is looking a lot better, I'll have some solid picks for that card. Matt Mitrione will be my biggest play. Good luck, err'body.

    I never made a play on either of those guys... I'm a gambler, so yes, I make bets on fighters I know nothing about. There are a lot of fighters I haven't seen fight, doesn't mean I'm new to the sport. It used to be something I watched from time to time, it didn't become a big part of my life 'til about a couple years ago.

    You're pretty dumb, if you don't believe it.

    I went 1-5 on my picks, but bet on fights I did not have picked, 2 of which I mentioned I was going to bet. Again, if you don't believe, then YOU are the dumb one, ya prick.

    You think I lie that I went 1-5 yet made money betting other fights? Why, so you guys can respond saying "Hey! Good job!!" ???? Why would I lie about that??? I don't give a crap what you think I made. It makes ZERO difference in my life. You are such idiots.

    That would make the whole board dumb, then, wouldn't it? I would not be the least bit surprised, if that were the case. Now, run off and clean up the loads your boyfriend shot all over your left side.
