All the cool kids were doing it...
Plus I feel like it's just good karma for my bets.
So here's how it works just for future reference. 1U=1% of bankroll. I have two bankrolls going.
Regular Betting- this is ~95% of my total bankroll. (100U)
Stupid Betting-this is the remaining ~5% of my total bankroll. (100SU)
The stupid bets are not to be tailed, they're sort of for fun. They'll be lots of large parlays and 100% of bankroll bets on huge favorites. I dunno, just sort of appeals to me for some reason.
So my current plays are this
risking 6.28U
Lyoto Machida
Mauricio Rua
to win 4.05U
10U parlay of
Mauricio Rua
Phil Davis
to win 4.79UU
10U parlay of
Mauricio Rua
Phil Davis
Lyoto Machida
to win 9.72U
notice those are U and not SU because I'm a god damn idiot sometimes. I think they'll pull off and I think I actually have the advantage statistically but...the numbers in terms of bet size don't add up.
For Stupid bets
I'm throwing 60SU on Phil Davis straight up at the steal odds of -600 to win 10SU. If anyone wants to know WHY I'm so stupidly confident in these guys I'll throw it out there.
