Why would you bet on the person you aren't picking?

Is wagering on someone and picking someone else cheating?

umm.. go ahead and compare records. I think you'll find that mine obliterates yours(62% vs 77%), but way to bring the thread off topic. I guess it's better that way since your OP was so dumb.

We had the same record last event. You picked Geraghty...wow
You missed 2 on UFC 72...I missed 0
You picked Burkman over Parisyan

Oh and your ranking is almost 1k below me with the $$$ over 500.


It's ok to have a differing view point on an issue. Don't call it cheating just because you don't understand basic wagering though. Calling people cheaters for no reason is not ok in my book.

I think that anyone would agree that Geraghty was a more logical choice then Andy Wang anyday. However, I was looking for advice on this subject and not a bi**hfest of horrible remarks that I got. Another example of a typical Keyboard Warrior doing his part to ruin another message board. I appreciate all of the knowledge from everyone. I've been a member since this whole thing started and picked 11 events compared to your 4. So if you truly want to compare records then lets do it when you've been through 10 events.
