Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
To be fair, losing in MMA is just different than losing in any other combat sport. Most of us (I know I was) were raised on boxing. It's pretty rare that you see a boxing match end in as thorough a...

Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
Well, the Alexander fight was pretty much exactly like how I posted. The clinch was inevitable and then once it went to the ground there was no real resistance on Houston's part. Thiago Silva is a...

Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
Yes, I am making some assumptions, but for the most part they're pretty safe.
Like, Thiago on top for example. He's a legit BJJ black belt with great grappling credentials. Do you REALLY think...

Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
Here are my thoughts about the Silva/Alexander fight.
For one, people overestimate Alexander's striking game. He isn't exactly a crisp, technical boxer. Very few people are in the MMA game, so...

Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
Only action I've got is Thiago Silva at +130.
Ed Herman at -140 against Doerksen who hasn't looked good lately and is taking the fight on short notice is tempting. I hear nothing but good...

Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
No, I didn't put down anything yet. Like I said, I was anticipating the line moving the other way.
Did I miss something here? Houston is being heavily promoted by the UFC, with articles about...

Re: Enough flips, why do you deserve $50...

VictorDave is at seat 0 with $14.55.
KaronaKid is at seat 1 with $29.70.
harley140 is at seat 2 with $77.
sambra80 is at seat 3...

Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
5dimes has Houston/Silva at -170/+130. I like Silva in this fight anyways, but I was hoping this line would open a little higher. I'm considering waiting it out to see if I can get +150 or better....

Re: UFC 78, TUF 6 Finale, UFC 79
These lines seem mostly correct for right now. I imagine the Serra/Hughes line will jump around a bit the closer we get to fight time. In wrestling terms, Serra is being cast strongly as the face...

Can't say for certain but I know that Poker Stars transfers the amount you deposited back instantly and then sometimes it takes a couple hours for them to send in your winnings.

Re: Why not WSEX?
I don't know why people are thinking it's some great mystery. The games are just harder. Yeah, I suck at poker, but so do most people. I win a little at my levels on other sites. On WSEX/WPEX, I...

Re: UFC 77 Discussion thread
The Sylvia fight was basically worst case scenario. That was the worst Tim that could have possibly come out. Still a fairly easy win. I expected the fight to go more like round 3 the whole time...

I think somewhere in that range is accurate. As much as I've talked up Sylvia and as much as I think he's going to win this one easily, we are still talking about a guy coming off back surgery. ...

+120 is far too low for me to consider arbing this since I feel so strongly that Tim has this one. I might start thinking about it at the +175-+200 range, but even then that would ONLY be because...

Re: AP just paid me.
While normally this isn't newsworthy, I'll admit, I also was pretty psyched when AP actually paid me this morning. It had been a few days in my case and I was starting to wonder.

Re: UFC 77 Discussion thread
The best bet on the card (and in the UFC since Hughes/Gracie) is Sylvia over Brandon Vera. Vera has an insanely low chance of winning this fight by KO. Arlovski hit Tim with probably the loudest...
