Because it's what you said you'd do if your bankroll was under a certain figure. And pfft, "so often".Why do you quote me back to me so often? This is what I've said for years on the board and in PMs to you.
Even if you were working 3 jobs to build your bankroll, it still may be worth it to 'take shots' to get your bankroll soaring, especially if your bankroll is a) replaceable and b) growing slowly, but only if c) you have a proven edge.
Utility isn't looked into enough when gambling in general, and can throw a lot of EV calculations out of whack.
Take for example a typical casino bonus, deposit $50 get a $50 bonus, with 40x playthrough. The correct way to play this assuming your bankroll is large enough that losing $50 is meaningless is to bet the entire $100 in one hand. But if you win, isn't betting $200 now the correct play? And then $400? According to the EV model you would continue doubling your bet to $3200. While $50 may be meaningless, $3200 rarely is. The EV model has broken down, and utility comes into play.
I agree with you as far as utility is concerned, and I'm certainly in no disagreement that if you're serious about gambling, taking shots while working jobs to build your bankroll can be a positive.
Name a few books that allow livebetting on which getting down 10K on the Thomson/Henderson fight was not possible. Go on, I'll wait.Like to hear the book that allowed 10k live. BS.
Might want to fact check before saying something so stupid.
You go Nunya. ON FIREWhy do you quote me back to me so often? This is what I've said for years on the board and in PMs to you.

I was pretty clear in my original phrasing.Personally, I think you meant would have won 10k, thus "costing you 10k", someone misunderstood, and u ran with it. Getting old now.
Can we start an I Hate Bendo club?
The guy has murdered me in splits versus Frankie, Gil and now Josh. I've lost $10K thanks to BS judging.If you want to think I'm lying, go ahead, but you should fact-check first. A lot of fact-checking.I lost more than that on this fight.
I'm actually legitimately annoyed. I dislike him strongly right now, even though I know how irrational that is.
Ridiculous. Bmaker and 365. I was looking at the same screens, and could barely get down any. Bm was only in between rounds, and was difficult to bet at all. 365 has low limits, was under 500 or so per bet. Post the tickets. Its a lie.
Marzy be quiet
There is a time and place to be heard. This isn't one of them.
Sit in your chair and take notes. Like I told you via pm read through the lines and learn
You will thank me in 5 years when you can bet 100 on a fight

You sure about that?
I got down 7000€ in one bet on the Johnson/Moraga fight. Pull your head out of your ass.
Limits are higher on 365 than any other betting site I've ever seen for MMA.
Yes. Very. I was there, betting the same line. Post it.
Yes. Very. I was there, betting the same line. Post it.
Oh? What were your limits on that fight, then? Were you betting the limit?
And obviously I'm not going to post my tickets from months ago just to prove a point to you. I wouldn't post the tickets if I had made the bet five minutes ago. Nunya also lost five figures live betting that fight and said so himself in the event thread. If you can't work out how that's possible, you're not too good at this "gambling" thing.
I dunno about 365. But I managed to get 6 bets in on Thomson at +105, +133, +182, +612, +616, +900.Ridiculous. Bmaker and 365. I was looking at the same screens, and could barely get down any.

365 limits different people different amounts as is the norm so maybe uve just been limited? Im limited to pennies on there from soccer betting yearsa go, so i have never bothered to check the live betting for mma on bet365.Yes. Very. I was there, betting the same line. Post it.
FightFightFight, since you seem to be the only one who uses both sites, would you say that 365 and Bookmaker have the same live betting platform for MMA or is it different?
I thought Bookmaker limits to 5k per bet on live?
I am guessing that you can rehit the lines once it changes.
365 is to win, so a ticket on Johnson like that live would be to win about 1000. Same for dogs, its a to win max. I was able to max it twice, for a few hundred each time. Progressively less each time as they moved the line. You should know this, but clearly dont. You know. I know. Not so loud please.
They let you past that, though, right? If you exceed your max on Bet365, they'll allow the bet and then refer the excess to a trader. Have you tried that?365 limits different people different amounts as is the norm so maybe uve just been limited?
