I took Gane at 2.55x and have another on an acca for under 4.5 rounds - will post after results start coming in.
So will see how this plays in approximately 5 hours from now when the early prelims kick off UFC 285.
Did anyone else notice Conor Mcgregor at the very end of the ceremonial weigh-ins? Promotions for a new movie of his:

Arsenal with the win! Don't know how they did it after dropping down 2-0 into the second half.
It was starting to look bleak but they showed their true grit of being potential champions this EPL season.
Came from an unlikely source too: Reiss Nelson
The scenes at the Emirates right now!

Q3 is progress and both Red Bulls are trying to fend off Ferrari but it is so close for Leclerc/Sainz and Verstappen same as last season.

I am liking Alonso out of the Aston Martins to do something tomorrow during the race since Stroll has a wrist injury and can only crank his steering wheel so far one-handed.

Very exciting stuff so far!

For years, we tried to end the domination of Mercedes, now another domination has begun. What did this mercedes and ferrari do on the break? I wish it won't be a boring season as rb is very strong.
Well, that's just what happens when teams got the perfect formula. We will see in the upcoming race what could be the momentum of this season. It's too early to say, but let's see what happens this Sunday. I hope that it will be a very entertaining season.
We can see how it all unfolds in the practice runs today.
The countdown is on and there are approximately 2 hours left until the official F1 2023 season begins with these races.

The only worry I have for Jones is his mindset.  And a lot of guys are giving Jones flack for his 'dad bod'.  I think that's fine and nothing to be too worried about.  I'd be more worried if Jones came out jacked to the tits as it could mean he'll slow down carrying around tight muscles.
Yeah, I've seen his dad bod, but that looks like someone's who's looking to wrestle to me Cheesy. Muscles definitely take a lot more oxygen, and fuel to get moving so I don't think we'll have to worry about his gas tank too much. I think he'll do well, I've seen some training videos of him, and he looks motivated. I just hope, he goes the wrestling route.

That's what you're basically betting on; whether or not he goes the wrestling route right off the bat. If he does, it's probably my most confident pick of the night. If he doesn't, it quickly becomes one of my least confident. Obviously, Jones has been great in the past on his feet, so there's no doubts about his ability, it's more a doubt on whether he's still got the gas tank, and sharpness with his lengthy lay off.
That's exactly what I thought when seeing him at the stare downs post pre-press conference a couple of hours ago.
Will he be able to cut down to make weight?

Have you seen Jones and Gane stare down? Jones looked big, even though some say that Gane is 10kg heavier. It looks like this fight is going to end quick. Either Gane will tap, or Jones will ne ground and pounded. Even though Gane is an underdog, and Jones wrestling is a key to win, I think that 3 years of inactivity would play a major role. If this wasnt a title fight, that I would go with Jones. As it is a title - I am with Gane. I just dont remember anyone who has returned after a huge pause and was as cool as he used to be.
Ciryl looked like Ciryl as he wears his weight well but Jones just looked different not the lean mean bones we are all use to seeing.
I know he is older now so overcourse would have packed on the weight not being in the octagon for so long, but damn, when he raised his arms after the staredown with Gane. You saw his belly sticking out from under his shirt.
Alot of dehydration in the next 13 hours for him I would think. Cause if he misses weight that would be an utter disaster for this main event.
1829  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion on: March 03, 2023, 08:37:25 AM
Jones not fighting for the last three year and the story behind that step away from the world of the MMA was a fairly tragic one.
So if you are backing him then I would say good luck as Gane is the one who last fought Tuivasa six months ago Sept 3rd 2022 and beat him without an contest needed to decide who won that fight.

Watched this live and really enjoyed how it went and Dana back in the drivers seat putting them for a press conference is always a nice touch:

Profit is profit with the recovery mode yet risky but that is the business. So enjoy the wins when they come.
Had a 10% cut on my bankroll due to an early cashout but that is not sticking to our guns and letting it ride out.
To make up for it will be putting it all on the outcome of the co and main event for UFC 285 this weekend along with the outright winner of F1 in Bahrain.
So a good acca to be sure!

Meanwhile the SEC are looking to lobby all cryptocurrency as a security except for bitcoin.

@arallmuus Good idea about doing it that way instead. Since their app can be used in this context and serve their customer base better this way with offering a catered option that serves them through the app instead.
Perfect feedback and use of this thread to accommodate Sportsbet in finding somethings that their customers are looking towards using on their platform moving forward.

@buwaytress Or you can simply do it that way. Since it is the most basic method yet still some maintenance needed inorder to get your bets done.
Congratulations if you took the specials on the gunners since they just massacred the toffees four goals.
It was a no contest affair. Didn't keep up with the Saints since it was at the same time and not in the Premier league.
Don't know if they managed to tie it late on but they had scored last time I looked at the score while LFC was on.
They were only down by one since the two goal deficient.

Anyways, good luck on the specials this weekend as it is a sports packed weekend with F!, UFC and EPL all waiting for us to watch and enjoy!
As I know I will be and not up on here as much so to savor those good moments having been waiting for all these events to happen since the start of the year.

Actually I am siding with Aston Martin this season and have been a turn coat instead for Mclaren due to the upgrades & updates to the F1 crew and drivers they have done going into the 2023 season.

Steve managed to be at the unveiling of their new design and got to meet the new drivers.
Think he had a couple of snaps with both and maybe show them up when he gets a chance too.

I love that Sportsbet is having the Jake Paul event tonight and odds are very appeal for a KO from both sides I would say.

https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/boxing/international/international-matchups/paul-jake-vs-fury-tommy-63d26e7fb824ac6a5d6b77c5

I still wonder why Tommy would accept this fight as his name has a resonance in the boxing community and a defeat would not hang good him but for that amount of money ,everything is becoming possible.  Grin
Well, turns out he didn't lose, but it wasn't KO by anyone neither, just a disappointing entertainment fight and nothing more. His brother is out there making a legendary name out of himself that will stand the test of time, and the lil bro is just making a name by fighting youtuber brothers instead. What's next Logan fighting the big bro as a revenge? Lol.

All jokes aside, this was a fight that was never really meant to be taken seriously and I would never wager on something like this, there is absolutely no guarantee that it won't be fixed, like why would they even care, it is not even an official fight. This is why it is too dangerous for me to bet on it.
Logan Paul did get handed the microphone mid fight and call out Tommy saying he will lose the fight and all angry motives there.
But then after the fight he was humbled and even mentions something about his energy drink:

Yeah it was strange to see a big PRIME promotional advertisement in the octagon because I thought Dana White didn't want to do any collaboration with
Jake Paul from their last meeting.
But then I found out it is his brother Logan who owns the drink company:
https://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/health-and-wellness/logan-paul-s-energy-drink-has-more-caffeine-than-the-legal-australian-limit-20230221-p5cm52.html
https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/02/26/prime-drink-paul-logan-ksi
But then there was this article I've read that was published days before the fight:
https://adage.com/article/marketing-news-strategy/celsius-hires-jake-paul-brother-logan-paul-who-owns-prime-energy-drink/2475621
"Celsius challenges his brother Logan Paul’s emerging energy drink, Prime"
So he is just the ambassador of this new brand and not associated with Prime.
Well, technically even though they are brothers Jake Paul is not associated with Prime drink and actually, it was really Logan Paul and KSI who were the owners but sure even though Jake Paul would be the endorser of some other energy drink it doesn't really matter because he got his own mind to think for himself, but whatever the situation they're in they will still be brothers,

And for the 1st time, Jake Paul was defeated by Tommy Fury surely Jake Paul is not really ready for the real deal as a professional boxer, but surely the referee was always involved in their fight that I was distracted by the ref, but talk about the speed of Fury but surely Jake Paul is also not a slack he can throw some vicious punches right there but Tommy Fury speed is catching up to Paul, and while he is punching it he is not looking at his target so Tommy Fury is a better boxer here,
Think I saw a video of Logan Paul saying KSI is not longer with their collaboration any longer. But anyways, this is about Jake Paul and his fight with Tommy Paul who had was taped right before leaving heading back to the UK to celebrate his win at airport:

Wow nice one @arallmuus because had a high scoring bet on that match with the gunners but they managed a slim victory over the foxes.

I wasnt quite sure about the game as I thought it will be a pretty tight game then ended up taking no both team to score there which got me pretty decent oddds including the boost.

Took it as soon it was put up a little while ago because with odds @4.30x this one is a no-brainer! Kane is their penalty scorer.

I missed this. Sportsbet should start giving out notifications in telegram if they havent whenever they launch new promotions or new specials like this. They had one on telegram already but its in portuguese I think for their brazilian userbase
Was thinking about this today actually.
Maybe if they instituted a method if you have something in your balance to put specifically aside for these offers and specials, then it will use this for a set amount of your choosing (have a slider scale to choose the bet amount per special) applying to those so you won't miss any of them.
If there is nothing in the balance then nothing lost. It is just up to the player to make sure the balance is topped up so it applies to the specials automatically.
