Saturday night 1:1 parlay

  Other Sports - 102 Roy Jones Jr -380 for Game
  Other Sports - 401 Roman Karmazin -2500 for Game
  Other Sports - 471 Devon Alexander -380 for Game
  Other Sports - 501 Ruslan Chagaev -1000 for Game
  Other Sports - 601 Steve Molitor -1000 for Game 

I really like this parlay and the odds that go with it.  The biggest concern with this play is that Alexander is relatively untested.  But paraphrasing Graham Houston, it's highly doubtful Alexander's team would of made this match unless they were better than fairly sure Alexander will take it...

And with Corley's recent run, to me the result seems even more sure.  In other words, this is a fight made for Alexander to win.

With Chagaev having Hep C a bit back, there's a slight question, but seeing as how he canceled that fight even a bit before it was too happen, I think he knows when he's ready and when he's not.  His showing against Valuev makes me believe even a mildly unhealthy Chagaev will quite easily take Skelton. 

Risk: $950:$957

Ouch

-15k

Just put my whole load on Jones to make some of it back

which one missed - sorry to be dumb on that one

Brutal bro. Karmazin trained way too hard for that fight. He came in like 3 pounds under the limit.

Karmazin... This wasn't the only play he was in.  Total loss of more than 15k

At least you got some back on Jones.

Thanks for leaving out the I told you so Fullbrights. Tears were shed I'm man enough (or not man enough?) to admit.

-$9,900 for the weekend leaving me at 19,390 with 3650 waiting on the Pats.

Well I did rag you in your other thread, but it was mainly to point out that you probably wouldn't come back on and say that you had laid even more on Karmazin after the fact like you do when a fighter wins.

Tough break.  Upsets happen, you have had some close calls, but this one bit you.  At least your chase worked out for you, that usually isn't the case.  Did 5dimes really let you throw 15 g's down on RJ as a side to win 5?  I didn't know they took that type of action.

Well, I hope this one proves to you that I'm not with the bullshit.  I actually had quite a bit more than was posted on Karmazin.  Ended up over 15k in total.

5dimes took to win 3k on the regular line (they may of taken more, not sure, but it was all I had left to wager) and to win 500 on the reduced juice line.  Also had RJ in a couple of parlays (without Karmazin).

 

Give the guy a break.  It could be worse.  He could just show up in other peoples threads to talk shit.  Remind you of someone?

You guys are too fucking much.  If you really were reading my posts you'd see that Karmazin was in PARLAYS.  Built up over the last couple weeks.  And regardless of that, it would of been no problem to wager 15k on Karmazin alone (which I didn't) because he was at -1700 to start and finished at -2700.  Fucking dimwits. 5dimes would have no problem taking 15k to win less than a fucking G. 

 

MMA, you started this shit not me.  Don't bother reading my next thread of plays...There's a copy on your sister's nightstand.  Fucking cumstain.

 

Hey Snippets,

Is Graham Houston giving you a shout out in his latest "Graham Says" column?  Here's the possible reference to you:

"As stock markets plummeted, so, too, did the fortunes of players last week who thought that Roman Karmazin was the proverbial sure thing over Alex Bunema.

Everyone seemed of like mind here: a one-sided fight, with Bunema likely to get stopped in about six to eight rounds. Instead, Karmazin got knocked out in the 10th when well ahead on points.

One reader took Karmazin at -1500, laying $15,000 to pick up an 'easy' $1,000. Two days later he emailed to say he was still somewhat in shock."
