I can get some basic math done after each event, and I'm here often enough that it shouldn't take too long.

ManMMA 337:

Brock Lesnar (66-31) vs. Cain Velasquez (52-32)

Georges St-Pierre (80-33-1) vs. Rich Franklin (49-35)

Again, please keep your bets to 4 points or less.

2 points on Franklin
1 point on Velasquez

I take back my bet for GPS.... I want to use the point on someone.

IT's GSP, never bet on GPS, sometimes they steer you in the wrong direction!

Question! Are we allowed to post fights and bets? Or is xx - The Broad Street Bullies the only one that can suggest fight bets?

I'd say Bullies because some fights are easy to predict.

[The Rocketmen]

That, and you know, let him do his thing?

I predict a Ducks-Bullies final. There are a lot of tough calls along the line and I am really torn on those 2. I was going to put a point on each, but since they have the same 1:1 odds, that would be, quite literally, pointless.

[The Rocketmen]

I feel like the odds system isn't clearly explained...

the way you've explained them before is taking into account the original bet in the payout

So a 1 to 1 literally says "Give me 2 points and if you're correct, you'll get your two points back."
Where as the 2:1 odds says "give me 2 points and if you're correct, I'll give you your 2 points back plus 2 more."
And the 1:2 odds (supposed to be worse than the 1 to 1) says "give me 2 points and I will give you your 2 points back plus 1 more."

So, technically, you are giving more points out for the 1:2 odds than the 1 to 1 (quite literally, as The Sandmen suggested, a completely useless one to bet on).
