[UncleChael]

I've decided to retire young. Thanks for cheese. Catch ya's later.

[JIBBBY]

Well I wasn't around last night and after watching most of the event on DVR I must say I didn't miss much. .. Main event cancelled.

I did win a few bucks so I can't complain. Fading Anderson Silva, Ricky Simon by decision over Roni, Vanatta ITD, and fading Sam Alvey all worked out for me..

That's all got.. See you guys next week as that is gonna be a better card.. I should be around for that..

[Hugo de Naranja]

how many units do you count so far in 2019 now Hugo?

I was actually negative on the first two events so something like +23u on the year so far. I'll post some detailed results later. I want to be better about bumping both wins and losses and keeping a running total in my thread.

[Hugo de Naranja]

NICE WIN.....complete domination....I didn't expect Ishi to fight that stupid......he wanted a show for the fans....also respect the no TAP.....but nice call....points paid in 100's.....quicker im PRO the better....waiting on them to renew... Had a winning night so cant even be upset LOL....

Thank you sir.

[Hugo de Naranja]

UFC 234 was an Amazing night. Went 10/11 on Picks with Two Exact Picks.

Won 32.60u on Bets and another 1.77u on Multi-Event Parlays with 3.19u of MEPs carrying over to future cards.
Won on Turner KO/TKO + Turner R1, Kang+Ishihara WGD + Kang Submission + Kang R1, Young ML + Young -3.5, Smith ITD, Alvey+Crute WSR2 + Crute KO/TKO Hedge, Simon -3.5, Vannata R1, Straight Parlays, Prop Parlays, Live Betting, and Multi-Event Parlays.

I hit 17 of the 18 parlays I played with the only whiff being a 230/1 Prop Parlay where 5 of the 6 legs cashed.

Not every night will be like this but I'm grateful to have a big win after a slow start to 2019.
