Thankfully gullible MMA fans bet on Conor so I could get -357. It opened at like -2000 which is why I said I wouldn't bet this fight. My bookie made a killing tonight he only had 25 people bet mayweather and like 100 or so bet on Conor. He bet a shitload on mayweather too we both just couldn't believe people even thought Conor had a chance.

I don't know if you'd even know, and if you did whether you'd be willing to say, but any idea what the size of those bets were? I can imagine people saying,"Well he's not gonna win but the odds are so good I'll place a small bet on and maybe make a few hundred on the off-chance a miracle happens" but I cannot wrap my head around anybody putting large bets against what was essentially the inevitable outcome.

Every time I read that there was a significant amount bet on Conor to win, I imagine it being thousands of small bets adding up as opposed to a smaller number of large ones.

This is so off the wall and weird that I don't even really know how to react other than please don't do it anymore, man.

In all seriousness, the number one rule of gambling (and investment) is not to bet money you can't afford to lose. Jase seems to be doing pretty loving fine in that regard.

Bookie texted me and said my bet is canceled. What happened?

Holloway has been deemed medically unfit to compete. No other details given. Pettis I believe may be his replacement but he still has to weigh in.

I think I remember this right: he told a great story about hustling a couple of dudes, one of their girlfriends mocking them into demanding another game and then them beating Jase who couldn't believe his bad luck, only for his uncle to laughingly explain to him that HE was the one who got hustled? I hope I remember that right because it was one of my favorites, and I loved that Jase was completely open about talking about the times he was on the other end of a hustle.
