Do you ever pass up on an arb oppurtunity? I see no way Kampmann sanchez doesnt go the distance. If I were to arb out, I would take kampmann inside the distance because diego isnt finishing him.
Yeah when Im very confident in the play I'll pass it up..as is the case with this Sanchez/Kampmann fight. I've got 10 units at risk at moment, if the "Not go the distance" goes back up to +230 or better I might arb out again but I'll probly stick with it as I see it goin to decision at least 80% the time. I'll also resist arbing the Weidman play.

I'd be careful fading any one of Greg's boys to foreign indy circuit talent. Said it.

I thought I may have read an article the other day that indicated that the "Grimsdale Reaper" hadn't been workin with Jackson that much, that he'd switched up his camp quite a lot? Might be wrong tho!

Been out of the loop since Thursday as been on a four-day drinking binge with buddies! Missed the UFC Versus 3 and Strikeforce event, pissed because I didnt make half the bets that I planned on doing Wanted to take Bowles by submission, and add more to Palhares play and add Dongi to a few parlays but never got the chance to do it! Don't regret the play on Cavalcante, at +225 it was too good to pass up on. Ah well on to the next one!

Yeah, actually got to -128 on Pinnacle, but I probly wouldnt of arbed anyway as I'd made almost 12 units from the UFC event so had a nice windfall to fall back on. I'll take the +10.222 units all day, could of been worse!

doubt we see 5dimes put up anything better than +300.
Yeah, paddy's. I expect +250 to +310 range on 5dimes/Sportbet. I'll add some on Schaub KO of the Night as well at +550 or better.
