I’m not too high on the card, I’m still looking for an angle or some spots to hit this card but I think I will look to play as I go rather than place too many prebets. I feel like I gotta get a feel of how it’s gonna go. The last time they were in Brazil, the Brazilians went 9 for 11 where Tim Means got robbed and Machida won that close decision.
I had a few 8 man parlays that included both of the aforementioned, but after seeing the way Joseph Morales lose and looking all shook,I just got this weird feeling to redo the entire parlay again, removing non-Brazilians which was Tim Means over Sergio Moraes and it ended up hitting 7 for 7 for a few dozen racks. And that card ended with the lucky Machida decision over Anders, Machida being my 7th leg.
I hate to use this factor but fighting in Brazil really is a factor.
Side story — I’ve been traveling to Vegas these past couple months and there’s a few specific books that are dumb enough to let me parlay the ML with the over/unders and that weekend I I was able to do a 2-man parlay on Machida (+240) and his o2.5 (+175) together which came up to +900. It also gave me the flexibility to cash out even if Machida were to finish after 2.5 rounds. In comparison, 5dimes only paid Machida +525 for him to win by 5 round decision. It’s pretty crazy that they allow this and I’m taking advantage as much as I can when I see a good spot to take a trip to vegas.
I’ll give you another example for this card. I don’t give a shit about the fight, but hypothetically speaking, if you were to parlay Cooper (+225) and o2.5 (+100), you’d get +557. If you bet Cooper by decision on 5dimes, you only get +475, and the difference is that if Cooper finishes in the last 2.5 minutes, you still covered that +557 and you lose your bet on 5dimes.
There was a time where I bet Alex Garcia and o1.5 to achieve +450, and on the other hand 5dimes offered only +425 for his 3 round decision, and I cashed my +450 Vegas action because he finished at like 2:40 seconds into the second round.
I’m about to milk this cow for as long as I can til they realize it. If anyone wants to meet me out there lmk.
