    Very true gabe. I agree. Just let the Rich vs wand fight go now. Rich would probably win if they did the match again and again and again.. to bet wand was a stupid bet. Period.

    Exactly. I've said it before, Rich Franklin has only been taking fights lately that he feels very confident he could win. He hasn't been challenging himself, really. Knowing that, it would have been crazy for me to bet against him. The only thing I regret is not throwing him in more parlays.

    I had Cezar, bezerra, and werdum. So many times the last month i have lost money by betting to much, and because of that i decided to just play safe this weekend and it payed of. Are you big on Anderson silva these days?

The only problem with the live betting is I can't constrain myself enough, especially when i'm drinking. I know if I am patient, I can make good money betting live. But, I make some real shit plays sometimes, just cause I am degenerate. They can get away with the weak lines because of the incredible juice and the fact that betting live can really bring the degenerate in you out.

    I hit Condit again later in the fight but it was only around +300, I believe. Don't remember what rounds it was in between, but I know it was sometime after the third. Easiest live betting bets ever.

    When Edgar fought Henderson, I got him at +350 after the third round. I, like many, had him up 29-28 at that point. Unfortunately, this bet didn't win, but the line was still way off.

    Rich hasn't been taking any fights lately and before last night lost 2 of his last 3.

    He didnt want to take the alexander gustaffsson fight. A good choice in my opinion.

    I was disappointed by that. The line would have been super close, but I was so confident in Gustafsson in that fight. Was going to be a great bet, but Rich was smart and avoided the matchup.

    Yeah that was a smart move from a smart man. Once again, i will have to thank you for the excellent job you do in the mma podcast. Its without a doubt the best prediction show in know of and my increasing bankroll after a really tuf last month are more or less because of the insight given in the show. A lot of times im on the same picks as you and nik but i just cant pull the trigger. The show often makes me more comfortable in a bet, or sometimes just not bet it at all. So keep on moving, and know that you're thoughts are very much appreciated.

    I am hereby retiring the video series with my backers ending up at even.

    Dude, I honestly thought you gave a very solid breakdown of this fight. Rich was just the better man that night, no shame in that. Don't let all the haters get to you, it happens. Having the balls to continue to try and pick your plays carefully, and rebound is what matters. Anyways, GL to you with your future plays, and hopefully that won't be the last video we see from you.

    Wand was soooooo close to finishing! But that was really his only shot. Can't really pick you apart for your breakdown. You made some good points.

    Obviously the no brainer move is to put Dephaggo on block and keep posting the vids. No one cares what that creepy pedo-stalker has to say, he's like the muck at the bottom of the barrel that we just keep scraping off and discarding. There's so much waste that the wood has now rotted and it's time to just throw it out altogether by means of eternal block.

    Gambling fury: mad props on another profitable weekend and keep those oddscasts comin. Been a great supplementary resource for me for much of the same reasons BJ mentioned earlier. Thanks again, your the man.
