Well it becomes difficult for me to see how interesting the argument is without you dropping f bombs, calling me retarded, bringing up chess bets that I shared with the board from a year ago, being sarcastic, implying that I'm 20 years old, etc

You seem like a really angry guy.

dank,

You are v v wrong on this. Tuds is fairly wrong, but your reasoning is even worse. Sports betting isn't sports betting without odds. It just becomes a couple people talking about a fight. You need probabilities to find odds to find +EV or -EV bets.

Tuds,

Both those posts are humiliatingly bad. Parlay Slow is correct. You and dankhank are abysmally wrong. I'd suggest looking into this very soon.

Saying he didn't think he was 88% to win I think is fine, regardless if he says it differently than you. If he got knocked down 3x, sounds like he was right.


[/ QUOTE ]

I think you re-read his posts in the thread carefully, you'll find that he wasn't saying anything like that.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sure he did, just not using specific math for this fight.

'The only time I would even think about [a fighter >> over 85% to win] if ...someone like Mayweather or Bernard Hopkins who has impeccable defense and even then they have to be taking on a total can.
Peter and McCline do not fit into each category.

I think Peter will win,.... but I DO NOT recommend betting on Peter on the moneyline.'

That is pretty understandable imho.

If anyone saw the Peter/McCline fight there is a good example of why you stay away from -750 and similar type heavy favorites, but it all worked out in the end.

If there was going to be an immediate rematch of this fight, what odds would you take on McCline?

[/ QUOTE ]

What odds would I take? I would take something like +700 for McCline. It a moot point because there will be no rematch. Oleg or Klitschko have the next shot at Peter. McCline though can get another semi big fight with that showing.
