      Yeah this dude got Roop at about +160 higher than he was available, picked Tito to beat Bader, picked Werdum over Fedor, Chonan over Silva back in '04..you get the picture

        I'm a pothead so my memory of the line may not be 100% accurate, but George Roop was the biggest underdog bet I remember ever hitting. He was much bigger than getting Tito at +400.

        It's fine that you don't believe me. It's pathetic that you waste time and argue that you don't.

          I've been using a different bookie for the 4th week now. I don't have the account I had with the bookie I used when I placed the George Roop bet, so I can't find out what line I got exactly. But it was in the 500s. Josh Grispi was like a -590 favorite and Roop was like a +560 dog. That's how my stoner brain remembers it. You fools claim he was +400-- He wasn't. Tito was +400 and I won a lot more off Roop than I did off Tito.

              Lines like that don't exist, in any sport. -600 on one side equates to +400 back on the other side (or thereabouts). Your stoner brain got it wrong.

                Obviously I was getting better lines. Grispi wasn't -600 with him and Roop was in the +500s... Glad i don't use online books. =)

                  To be honest, I can't guarantee that Roop was +560, but I can guarantee that he was much higher than +400. I can also guarantee that Grispi was lower than -600.

                  I know for a fact that Roop was a bigger payday than Ortiz was at +400.

                  I really have no problem with anybody not believing me. I know my record is not realistic. I've done well so far, and I'm confident I will continue to. Stop being pathetic haters and just watch. You can be skeptical, who wouldn't? But don't start a pointless argument.

                    Someone mentioned comedian Joey Diaz in an earlier post in this thread... I am copying and pasting a message I wrote to Joey Diaz on August 25th, 11:23 AM:
                    You went 0-4 on the last UFC card. I went 4-1, including the lock I told you outside the Improv. So far for 134; I got Anderson Silva, Brendan Schaub, Edson Barboza, Yves Yabouin, and Stanislav Nedkov.


                    the lock i had told him was ivan menjivar.

                    and that message shows that i am 8-2 for the last 2 cards.

                    Joey Diaz is a comedian who makes UFC picks on youtube under the title 10th Planet Kush

                    Also, I went 5-0 on the Cruz vs Faber card Ortiz won on. I was in Vegas with the Rogan crew that weekend. Some of my good friends are in his inner circle and I was out doing a show in Vegas with them that weekend. I'm the only one who didn't go to the fight, though. I watched it at a bar.

                          To be fair, bestfightodds doesn't list every or even most books. (Although most other books do copy from one or more of the books listed). In my database I do have a couple of lines that are far off what BFO lists.
