More UFC 125 plays:
1 unit on Roberts at Evens to win 1 unit (plus stake);
1 unit on Volkmann at +195 to win 1.95 units (plus stake);
4.5 units on Guida at -150 to win 3 units (plus stake) .....this cancels out my 3 units on Gomi at +150!
Hopefully will have expanded my empire of betting accounts by tomorrow and have a Sportbet account set up so will be adding Guida by decision at +200 or better and hedging that with Gomi by TKO/KO at +400 on paddypower! Also will be looking to take Stungun by decision (at +145 on Sportbet hopefully); and Vera by decision at +300 to +350 range which is good value I think. Will most likely cancel out my 7 units on Maynard at -125 as well with 7 units on Edgar at +125 on Pinnacle...don't think I can bring myself to bet against my favourite fighter in Frankie!Comment -
Just when I thought Paddypower were tightening up on their lines they go and give me these Christmas gifts!:
Sengoku Soul of Fight Play:
3.95 units on Chonan at +162.5 to win 6.419 units (plus stake);
DREAM Dynamite Play:
3.44 units on Zaromskis at +187.5 to win 6.45 units (plus stake).Comment -

ha God knows! Unfortunately they put really low max bets on Sengoku and Dream so not as great as I hoped when I first noticed them. But still, Im confident at least one of those two will win, there is a chance Sakuraba subs Zaromskis tho.Originally posted by lasker How do these guys stay in business?
Think I'll leave it be and resist arbing out on the two plays. Hopefully Chonan's opponent isnt in great condition as he is late replacement for Hornbuckle and came in 2lbs overweight.

Arbing out of my 7 units on Maynard at -125 by taking Edgar at +135 - an Edgar win will give 0.56 units profit (on top of overall stake of 12.6 units) and a Maynard win will give overall stake back...
5.6 units on Edgar at +135 to win 7.56 units (plus stake).Comment -
Well done. A lot of people (including myself just a few months ago) seem convinced that Maynard simply has Edgar's number, but I'm really torn on this matchup and I think arbing out for guaranteed profit is the way to go.Originally posted by VaughanyComment -

Yeah, I still think Maynard will probably take the decision but I can't bet against the Tom's River grit! Plus I don't wanna be sitting there for 25 minutes hoping that Edgar loses, I'd rather sit back and enjoy it! Might add a small play on Edgar gettin Submission of the Night as I imagine it will be +1400 or better and worth a pop. Judging from interviews with him, Dante Rivera and Almeida it seems they've been workin hard on guillotines and are relying on his BJJ and scrambles in this fight. Although obviously unlikely, I wouldn't rule out Franky latching on a guillotine in the 4th or 5th round if Maynard gets sloppy with a takedown. He did get Sherk in a tight guillotine in their fight in the 3rd round but I believe he was saved by the bell so you never know!

Wow, sick lines on Chonan and Zaromskis.Comment -
Would you recommend Paddypower? looking to add a sportsbook that offer more props and other events then UFC, like Strikeforce, Dream and K1. Can I change from fractional odds to decimal?Comment -
Chonan lost by early KO
so gonna slightly hedge my Zaromskis play with:
1.146 units on Sakuraba at +187.5 to win 2.149 units (plus stake).Comment -
Yes Sir! They had both Dream and Sengoku available and as you'll see above I got Zaromskis and Chonan as underdogs...although Chonan has gone and lost! I find paddy to be the easiest site to use as well and never had any problems. The props are good as well but they seem to be tightening up on the odds recently, but then I did get Stann by decision at +400 which I havnt seen any better anywhere else. But yeah I'd say its the best European booky for MMAOriginally posted by Mr.Kitty

Ok thanks! do they have any friend referral program? if so I can sign up through that and you get some cash/bonus/free play for helping me. I will probably decide tonight which sportsbook I sign up too, because I want to bet on Dream/Dynamite event.Originally posted by VaughanyYes Sir!

Nah unfortunetly they dont do a referral program! Be good to have somebody else on here who uses Paddy as well tho! At the moment they're the only site in UK I know of that is offering full Dream line-up.Originally posted by Mr.KittyComment -
Good hedge. I know Sakuraba is hanging on by a thread, but Zaro has huge gaping holes in his game. I don't know if I'm betting with my heart again, but I am starting to lean towards Sak at +190.Originally posted by VaughanyChonan lost by early KO so gonna slightly hedge my Zaromskis play with:

Yeah if he's smart he will dive in straight away or clinch with Zaro and look for a sub. And even if he doesnt sub Zaro and it goes to decision he'll get the nod for sure. So Zaro will have to TKO/KO Sak within 10mins which isnt that easy.Originally posted by Poppa CatfishComment -
A great opportunity to do that is when Zaro throws that lazy jumping mess of a knee of his. It is so predictable and sloppy. If he can pick his spots and circle away from the high kick he should be ok. Still hard to put money on a man who is a shell of his former self.
Also Zaro is pretty reckless, I'm not ruling out him diving in on Sak.Comment -
Forgot to say yes you can change to decimal (towards bottom of left-hand side of page)!Originally posted by Mr.KittyComment -

zaromskis +187.5?....what ass-backwards book put that line up?....how are they still in business?....
i wouldn`t even bother wagering on the fights....just wait for these hedges (they seem to put out consistently lousy lines) and laugh all the way to the bank....
good job...you have a really great thing going there....makes one consider relocating to the u.k...
Comment -
ha yeah but after every time I think that surely they aren't going to make the same mistake again or at least it wont be for a while until they do make a mistake or just get it wrong! Even if they did do it every month I'd still do normal bets just because Im a degenerate! Plus the books in Europe put low maximum bets on except sometimes with the big UFC events so dont make as much guranteed profit as you'd think through these miracle bets!Originally posted by rocky mattiolizaromskis +187.5?....what ass-backwards book put that line up?....how are they still in business?....

Too hungover from last night's shenanigans to really give any sort of extensive reasoning behind my plays! Davis reaching +252 has enticed me in to a small play. Yes he got tooled by Diaz but not many people mention that he actually rocked Diaz and floored him early in the first round but Diaz survived because of his great chin. Many are saying that Davis' weight cut will of killed him but he was walking around at 170 weeks ago and he weighed in comfortably. Only concern is that although he will now have a size advantage, will he actually utilise it by pressuring Stephens in the clinch or by executing takedowns? Highly unlikely of course seeing as he likes to stand and bang, but at least he wont be at as much of a reach disadvantage as he was at welterweight. This being said, I'd of taken Stephens up to -175 probably.
Good luck all!

good luck lookin forward to maynard edgarComment -
Stann by decision. I can feel it
Followed you on this one
Comment -
What an absolute beating!
Ok I know Randy is Captain America, but I think its more fitting for Stann. Even is lingo is from the 1940's. "Golly Gee Willikers that Leben sure is a toughy, I'll tell you what." Like he has been frozen in ice for several decadesComment -
haha yeah he is Steve Rogers in disguise! Pretty disgusted with myself for not goin bigger on a single play on him to win wen he was +160Originally posted by Poppa Catfish
Should of put more units on that and less on Stann by decision in hindsight...stupid error!Comment -

Cheer bro, could of been so much better tho! This was supposed to be my trump card and was expecting make at least 6 units profit...made a big school boy error in not putting more on Stann straight up so always another lesson to be learnt! Not gonna make the same mistake with Hominick on the next card, planning to go reasonably big on him at reasonable odds... -200 hopefully.Originally posted by ddream1Comment -
You never have a losing night, do ya? Good work Vaugh, especially on leading the Stann brigade. Excellent call.Originally posted by Vaughany
