People betting on Conor give no fucks about odds and now the sportsbooks are praying for a Mayweather victory.quote:“The worst-case scenario for us would be if McGregor were to get a TKO or somehow knock him out in the first four rounds. That would be disastrous for us. It would probably rank as the biggest loss in our company’s history from a race and sports perspective.” https://twitter.com/KevinI/status/900440662411100160

I tried telling y'all pages ago to root for McGregor if for no other reason than someone betting $880k on Mayweather. And even better it was the Maloof brothers that made the bet.

Kevin Iole article posted:Traditionally, we take about 90 percent of the money in the last 36 hours.” They probably paid it out as a publicity stunt knowing that it's a minor payout on 10% of the total money that will come down.

Triticum Guzzler posted:It's going to be so bad rear end when Conor McGregor causes a global financial crisis Well now I just want him to win then Too bad he is no match for Voltron, defender of the universe, who will be assembled when Mayweather realizes his old age has caught up to him and he yells "form Voltron," and as the ref attempts to DQ him, Don King claws through the ring mat and informs him that this is actually the most legal move in boxing. Conor, realizing he is out of his league, reveals his true name, Char Aznabel, the Red Comet, and summons his Psycho Zaku mobile suit to the ring, and attempts to continue the boxing match with the newly formed Voltron. He loses by decision, and is stripped of the Conorweight belt. Paulie Magnicannoli attempts to climb out of the rubble and cut a promo on Conor Aznable, only to realize in his timeline, giant robots have not been invented yet, and goes back to whining on The MMA Hour. Voltron accidentally smashes the Vegas Strip to pieces because Floyd is illiterate and cannot work the complicated controls.

WAR DOGS OF SOCHI posted:"if i bet and win that means the sportsbook loses!" The amount of money bet on both fighters is almost even (60% Mayweather, 40% Conor), but Conor is still a heavy underdog. If Conor wins, the Mayweather money won't come close to covering those bets, and the sportsbook will take a huge loss. On the other hand, if Mayweather wins, they only have to pay a small amount of Conor money and keep a big profit. They didn't want to be in this situation, they failed to adjust the odds quickly or severely enough to protect themselves.

jase1 bet $50k on Mayweather, but I'm not sure what that means or what the current jase1 meta is. I think he's won a lot of his last (MMA) bets?

He started out losing all his money on MMA and being a joke and now he has rain man luck. I hope this turns out alright for him.

I think the books know what they're doing.

Got my annual birthday bottle of Glenlevit 21 waiting to be cracked open on Saturday win or lose I'm drinking that whole bottle. I'm super confident my money is safe. Just like when I bet on Anderson Silvia to beat Weidman and pacquiao to beat Bradley. jase1 fucked around with this message at 02:58 on Aug 24, 2017 |

If it makes you feel better, my two boxing bets were Bradley over Pacquiao in the first rematch and Rios over Alvarado in their first rematch. At least I bet low.
