**Vaughany** · 05-05-12, 08:39 PM

Adding:

12.378 units on Miller/Diaz Starts Round 3 (-322), JDS/Mir to Not Go the Distance (-560), & Belfort/Wanderlei to Not Go the Distance (-260) to win 14.094 units.

I see a bad moon arising!

**doubleleg** · 05-05-12, 08:59 PM

Thanks for this one:

Parlay: 6.189 units on Hathaway/Krauss to Go the Distance (-230), Not Barry by Submission (-665), Koscheck/Hendricks Starts Round 2 (-491), & Miller/Diaz Starts Round 2 (-782) to win 7.679 units;

**Vaughany** · 05-05-12, 08:59 PM

Me too. First losing night this year and worst one in recent memory.

Dropped $206 and it could've been more than double that if Diaz didn't finish Miller by sub. Geez

Also got risk free plays on Vemola to win 5.959 units, and Garza to win 3.25 units (although will probably be playing Bermudez either straight up or in a parlay nearer to fight time). Also got 10 units on Mayweather by Decision at Evens, will make 4.131 units profit if Marco Huck wins (money back if not), and will make 6.18 units profit if Alvarez wins by decision, or 9.6 units profit if the fight doesn't go the distance. Got about 25 units on Hendricks at +110 and Evens, will wait until just before the fight before making decision whether to arb out (to see how the parlays involving Kos/Hendricks Starting Round 2 are going).

Mayweather decision and Alvarez decision hit at least!

IMHO You're still the best MMA capper on these boards. Just a bump on the road.

Cheers bro....I've got a couple potential plays I'm pretty confident in for the next event, so we'll see!

**bjpenn85** · 05-06-12, 04:47 AM

i thought i saw some bets on bermudez? good play.

yeah I did, was one of my biggest plays but had fight doesnt go distance as well which cancelled out half the profits! Bermudez was my most confident play of the night...should of just stuck with him.

**v1y** · 05-06-12, 07:41 AM

no shame vaughny win some you lose some. i was down 1500 this weekend at one point but managed to finish up 750

yeah, risking more so gotta accept some variance I guess. Was tht swing because u had Diaz?

**Vaughany** · 05-06-12, 10:02 AM

Following parlays still alive:

Parlay: 6.193 units on Hathaway/Krauss to Go the Distance (-210), Koscheck/Hendricks Starts Round 2 (-595), Miller/Diaz Starts Round 2 (-885), & JDS/Mir to Not Go the Distance (-475) to win 8.195 units;

Parlay: 9.284 units on Not Hathaway Inside the Distance (-550), Not Barry by Submission (-665), Not Belcher by Submission (-1920), Not Hendricks by Submission (-6930), Miller/Diaz Starts Round 2 (-782), & Belfort/Wanderlei to Not Go the Distance (-260) to win 11.753 units;

Parlay (double): 2.273 units on Hendricks (+110), & Cruz (-187.5) to win 5.046 units.

**v1y** · 05-06-12, 03:40 PM

the swing was michael johnson (200 to win 550), then belcher by tko 200 to win 1100.

ahhh very nice. I was gonna add Belcher TKO/KO hedged with Palhares but for some reason didnt do it

**bjpenn85** · 05-06-12, 04:22 PM

Unibet had Belcher tko @ 9.0. I dont know what unibet are doing. They also had benavidez tko @ 6.0 against urush. Maybe their tactic is to get people to bet at their site by giving generous prices on big fights.

yeah, they probably aren't tht bothered as they just limit u as soon as you make a couple hundred!

**bjpenn85** · 05-06-12, 04:44 PM

ive won a lot on unibet. i havent been restricted yet. are you restricted?

**Vaughany** · 05-06-12, 05:00 PM

Yeah, max bet on props is like £20 to £40 on most

**Joe_Shabadoo** · 05-06-12, 11:27 PM

V, what are your thoughts on Cormier/Barnett?

I've been racking my brain on this fight for some time now, favoring Cormier, but I'm going over older film of Barnett and I can envision him taking a barrage from Cormier to get in the clinch, onto the ground, and then eventually getting side control.

I'm not sure how prepared Cormier will be for Barnett's versatility. I think that he'll expect Barnett to not challenge his wrestling, but maybe Barnett does not view Cormier's MMA wrestling and ground game as such a significant matter.

Do you think Cormier will get to +125 or more by fight time?

**Jerseychi** · 05-06-12, 11:40 PM

Cormier looked awesome against Big Foot Silva. Barnett looked good as well , but Rogers doesn't have much of a ground-game. Cormier has Olympic level wrestling, but Barnett's steroids may even out the playing field. Still I , personally, would pick Cormier.

**Vaughany** · 05-07-12, 05:14 AM

Apparently Lineker had missed more than a month of practice due to appendix surgery....

Here's what happened to Lineker: he missed more than a month of practice due to appendix surgery, flew to the US alone without money...contacts and not even speaking english. His corner arrived at noon when he was already cutting weight. People that saw say he was DYING...in the sauna. Had no idea how to cut weight. If it wasn't for BTT things would have been much worse for him. People said he was too nice...like just happy to be there. Asked Gaudinot and his crew for a group picture BEFORE the fight. Oh, his problems didn't end. He needed a...mouth piece and a cup, so he had to borrow it there. Had no sponsors (got a last minute deal) and no support. Great thing for a guy on...the most important fight of his life, huh?

Just got back home from my first visit to England. I was surprised about how friendly everyone was, everyone was like thank you this, sorry that...it was unlike anything i´ve experienced. Before I went over, I thought that I would get shanked on the mean streets of London or something like that

Havent had time to cap shit for this card, tailed you on Cholish, Krauss and small on Gaudinot. Also played Denis/Barry parlay. Might add a little on Hendricks later.

GL mate, let the party begin!

haha Good to hear...what places in London did u go to though?

And thanks for beating Milan last night! FORZA JUVE ALE ...CAMPIONI D'ITALIA!

**Oblivian** · 05-07-12, 08:55 AM

Most took a hit this weekend. I would say only 25% of the people in my thread came out in the positive. Good luck next event.

I only spent about a day in London so I dident have time for much sightseeing, went up to Stoke-on-Trent for a jobinterview at bet365. Unfortunately I dident get the job, found out today.

Congratz about Juve, you deserve to win after going undefeated, not much else for me to say even tho I dont like it. Beating Milan is always a pleasure

GRANDE MILITO, The King of Derby della Madonnina!

Next season....watch out!

**Beelzebubzy** · 05-07-12, 10:04 AM
