    On paper and principle, Miri is right.

    You have some really solid input and analysis Jibby, I think you'd be surprised how well you would do with a more strict list of betting guidelines to follow.

    Still, being accustomed to your style is equally important, if it's working then stick w it

    You miss one of those heavy favorite straight win bets it can ruin your night and put you in the red just like that.... You miss the parlay for a $100 you can rebound easily...

    I'm not into picking up change in front of a steam roller Miri

    You're missing the point once again. You don't minimize any risk by putting things in parlays, you actually increase it.

    But people have tried to make this clear for you before, and it hasn't really worked, so I'm going to call it a day here.

    I got your point Miri..

    I like parlay play with MMA and it has worked out for me over the years.. I'll stick with what works... Just like teasers might work out better for some in other sports.

    You are right we have been over this topic many times.. Bottom line is you need to pick em first for any gambling system of play to work and have success...

    A viable way to look at it is to refuse to play big favorites, due to the unpredictability of the sport. That makes much more sense and is a sentiment I can agree with. But if you feel Andarde should be -500 here, you should absolutely play it at -330 or whatever it is.

    Just signed on to Draftkings the other day for giggles and kicks, now talk about parlay play.. Lol.. That's all they do in a sense with that bookie...

    Thru a benny down and tried all those $3, $5, $10, $20 MMA contest plays... Wondering if I just threw away $100???

    Anyone have any thoughts on Draftkings? https://www.draftkings.com/contest-lobby

    Interesting note on 1 vs 1 matches. Almost all of the $500/$1000 contests are vs. the same person despite different usernames.

    With you here. Craig has aggression if not much else, Good can be very passive and a sheer difference in volume could be the difference

    Strickland dominationg thru 2.. Don't like the way he fights with his chin up and hands down though.. Will fade him against a good boxer with good TD defense in future fights..
