Just out of curiosity how many people follow the odds of fighters, and bet real money. Seems like its not of interest to most on the playground..

I bet on 1 or 2 fights on all of the major events. Like the UFC, WEC, EXC, now Affliction. No big money though. $10-$20 a fight depending who's fighting. I do my picks on Bodog.

I like to have a little flutter.

For UFC 86 I bet £10 on the 5 main card fights and then another £10 on the same fights plus 2 undercard fights. I got them all right and won £500. I was well chuffed.

I'd love too, but I'm just a little too obsessive compulsive for the real stuff. I'd be mortgaging the house within three PPV's.

it doesn't help that I finish with more fake money than anyone last season. Fighting the urge has been difficult......I gotta go now.

if you are worried stay away......it is VERY addicting........and awesome

remember, the odds are VERY different on the playground, so you might not win as much as you do one here

Living in Las Vegas and going to all the shows in town I bet on a lot of UFC fights, but after the Bisbing-Hammill and Griffin-Jackson decisions (which I consider both to be robberies) I doubt I will again.
