Those odds are so tempting, I just put $50.00 bux on Varner. I've heard amazing things about him and I think he can stay away from a submission and grind out a decision or ref stoppage.

3

not through pinnacle but ive got 50 on Franca actually. I think he is aware of Varners abilities and weaknesses and will go to the ground as fast as possible to submit him.

4

So will you win like $9 if franca wins? that how those work?

5

you must have a side bet for straight money with someone? At the sportsbook I can't imagine you putting down 50 bux to make 10.

6

So how does the Neer/Diaz fight work? I thought someone was always the underdog.

7

That has to be a misprint. I would guess that Neer must be +150

9

I am surprised about the odds for Bonnar/Griffin, too, considering their last fight was won by a very narrow margin...

If you attempt to place a bet, it will show you what you would win depending on how much you bet. How much you will win all depends on how much you bet but if you bet on the underdog (the fighter with the + sign) you will win more than if you bet on the one with the - symbol.

11

the way i remember it is:

if there's a negative sign on the number, and that person wins

you win your bet/(number/100)

if it's a plus sign and that person wins

you win your bet*(number/100)

for instance, betting $10 on varner, if he wins, you will win

$10 *4.55 = $45.50

or if you bet $10 on franca and he wins, you win:

$10/5.05 = $1.98

12

You have to be out of your mind stevo evo ... close fight but Nick Diaz should be the fav ...

13

Why am I out of my mind? Did you read the right post?

Yes sir.

  • means they are the underdog, - the favorite. chuck is a -300, which means that you would have to bet 300$ to win 100.

Is it too late to put $1000 on Schafer? Good gawd, what a raping that was.
