Yesterday we went over the card for this Saturday's Strikeforce event, which airs on Showtime at 10 p.m. ET/PT. Today, we'll go over the betting lines. As pointed out in the comments of yesterday's post, the lines are fairly wide for a supposedly competitive main card. To me, that just means there's more money to be made. I'm not saying that Keith Jardine or Jordan Mein deserve to be favorites, but I think it's way off for them to be massive underdogs like they are. Even Lorenz Larkin might be worth a look. Anyway, I have to type this quickly because I need to go bet on Mein like, right now, so here's a look at the odds:
Lines courtesy of 5Dimes
Luke Rockhold (8-1) -475 vs. Keith Jardine (17-9-2) +380
PRELIMINARY CARD
Nah-Shon Burrell +145 vs. James Terry -165
Trevor Smith +115 vs. Gian Villante -135
Ricky Legere +220 vs. Chris Spang -260

Jardine is TOTALLY worth a small play here.
Between being a tough style to fight, desperate to do what it takes to win (even if it’s LNP), a wily veteran, and terrible judging… worth it.

I’d jump on it now, it’ll probably shift in his favor closer to fight time.

Jardine's got no chance
They still do five rounders for Strikeforce belts don’t they? Rockhold’s going to pick him apart, and make him look like a chump.

Keith Jardine has a very underrated ground game.

Im thinkin Jardines gonna gas out
He walks around about 215-220 in between fights at lhw, cutting the extra 10 lbs is gonna destroy him if the fight goes to the third round

no.
And when I saw this on mobile, I thought you just randomly put up a picture of eminent, until I realized I had to scroll to the side.

Smith as the underdog is confusing but good for the old pocket book…
Oh my god I'm going to make so much money off this card
