Bloody Elbow Betting Game Results: UFC 99

Only one more event to go in this season of MMAPlayground's betting game. The last event will be The Ultimate Fighter 9 Finale on June 20th. Important: If you wish to join the Bloody Elbow betting ensemble, send me a message or leave a comment in this thread so I can send you an invite. Please make sure your MMAPlayground login name is the same as your BE name or as close as possible so we can give you the proper credit.

Updated camp rankings in our Super Heavyweight division (60+ members) after UFC 99:

99_camp_medium

Our camp's leader in points awarded through correct fight picks out of this event is KneeToTheFace. He was able to earn 107 points at UFC 99, good for 19th place out of 4989 at MMAPlayground. KneeToTheFace was able to predict the Franklin vs. Silva, Fisher vs. Uno, Saunders vs. Swick, Struve vs. Stojnic, Kelly vs. Delgado, Hathaway vs. Story, and the Cro Cop vs. Al-Turk fights perfectly. Well done.

As for wagers, I am the leader in earnings for UFC 99. Including the money made from correct picks, I was able to turn $1,000 (the limit for betting on this season) into $5,987 largely from a parlay on Franklin, Hardy, and Velasquez. I am also now the camp leader over the season thus far with a combined $8,077. Next weekend we shall see if I am able to hold on to the crown. My wagers for UFC 99:

Ahhhhh!

If Hardy and Kongo didn’t screw me over I would have topped 120. Oh well, it’s worth it to see Marcus Davis lose and then be a baby about it.

I thought the most we could bet on any one fight (including parlay) was $300? Not that I’m challenging your crown—getting Hardy into that parlay would have made you the victor even if you had only bet $300.

You can bet half your total purse.

I had Davis/Franklin/Swick I think. :(

The $300 limit per fight was for the betting game prior to MMAPlayground.

There is only the $1,000 limit total per event this season.

UFC 100 starts the new season and there are no limits on anything.

You know, Eugene, you ask me to make money, I finish fourth in wagers betting less than a grand and I can’t get any love. It’s a cold world that you inhabit.

You beat Richard yet again.

Is that good?

It beats losing to him. Although it sure looks like everybody and their dog beat Richard.

I turned about $850 into almost $2,500. I feel good.

The season is about to end so I just put everything on some guy I couldn’t pick out of a lineup.

I smashed him on the picks at least.

Would you rather have a signed shirt that might not fit you or a hat?

Shirt. You can always frame it.

Mental Note – betting money on all the underdogs isn’t a good idea.

by Nick Thomas on Jun 14, 2009 2:47 PM EDT reply actions  

It would have made you rich at the card before this. Other than Machida and Hughes the favorites got murdered.

Uno!!!!

The robbery of the decision cost me my parlay and 11 points. Bummer.

That shit sucks. I never did get my money/points/parlay back for the Karo/DHK fiasco, though, so suck it up :p

by Derek Suboticki on Jun 14, 2009 10:30 PM EDT up reply actions  

I still did alright. Made up for the Pat Berry fiasco from last month.
