Sullivan Barrera vs Jesse Hart
and
Tyson Fury vs Tom Schwarz
BETTING ODDS:
Barrera: +150 Hart: -200
Fury: -4000 Schwarz: +3300 (x4 on Schwarz)
Ways fighters can win:
Decision: WIDE or CLOSE
KO: EARLY (1-4), MID (5-8) or LATE (9-12)
Examples of the ways you can state your decision:
PICK EM CREW, Barrera, KO, Mid x2
PICK EM CREW, SCHWARZ, DEC, CLOSE x3
If no multiplier is specified in your pick (ie x2, x3) then it will be assumed that no multiplier is being used (x1)
If you wish to pick a Draw result, simply state your Username, both fighter names and DRAW, ie:
PICK EM CREW, Schwarz, Fury, DRAW
IMPORTANT NOTE: NONE OF THE WBSS FIGHTS CAN BE SCORED A DRAW - ONE FIGHTER WILL ALWAYS BE DECLARED A WINNER. ANY UNCORRECTED DRAW PICKS ON THE WBSS WILL BE WASTED.
NOTES:
-Picking the correct winner earns 20 pts
-Picking the correct method earns 10 pts
-Picking the correct detail is worth 10 pts
-Draws are worth 120 pts. A perfect pick without a multiplier is 40pts.
-CLOSE is <12 pts difference, or anything closer than 116-112 on all three scorecards. WIDE is >=12 pts difference, or anything equivalent to 116-112 on all three cards or wider.
-If you'd like to change your pick before the fight starts, post in this thread to do so. Ideally tag me so that I don't miss it.
-2X doubles your points and 3X triples your points. Everyone starts with 5 doubles and 3 triples to use throughout the year. If you forget how many you have left, check the leaderboard in the master thread.
Sticky me -MEGA-, BostonGuy, TBear, jaded, LoadedWraps, bigjavi973
Hope I've done this right. Only perfect pick was BigZ44 who picked Fury for the early KO.
A couple of issues with multipliers:
- Blakbread904 put a x2 on Fury, but I don't think they have any left;
- mathed put x2 on both fights but they don't have any x2 left, they do, however, have some x3 left I think, so maybe they can be swapped, I dunno
15/37 correctly picked Hart (b morph missed their pick)

You, my friend, are a superstar! Had a busy week on with work and had been putting doing this ish off as long as possible, but really needed it updating before the fight tonight and this should speed things up a considerably.
Green K for you, man, and many thanks.:beerchug:
EDIT: In terms of the multipliers remaining, we take the next lowest remaining - so a x2 will be used if a x3 is picked but none are remaining, but you don't get bumped up to a x3 if you already used your last x2.
RESULTS:
Hart, DEC, WIDE
Fury, KO, EARLY
Hope I've done this right. Only perfect pick was BigZ44 who picked Fury for the early KO.

Okay gents, I'm off for some shuteye... training in the a.m unless father's day breakfast weighs me down too much :lol1:
If someone can call the start of the two Vegas fights it'd be much appreciated.:boxing:
Haha. :lol1: I was talkin bout NSB points. I saw threads where people used to bet points. Truth is, I've never even played the lottery before. I used to have some overnights in Vegas or Reno, and dropped $20 max a couple times, but as a practice I NEVER gamble unless it's on myself against someone. But that's years ago too. I have 3 grandkids and 1 on the way.
Ya'll have "scratch offs" over there ?
Wise man, in the words of another 'You know you gonna lose, cos gamblin's for fools...'..:lol1:
I think I might have bet points on fights a coupla times when I first started here, but it all got a bit silly cos until they reset the points some months ago there was just such a massive discrepancy in the points we all had it became ridiculous - a bet that would bankrupt one dude wasn't a drop in the ocean to another... besides there wasn't really much the you could do with 'em anyway... Cost a thousand or so for a username change, but everyone who had been here a year or more had literally billions.
And yeah, we got scratch cards over here - I buy 'em occasionally, do the lottery too - again ,maybe half a dozen times a year. You know it's kinda a waste but you're paying for the dream I guess, regardless that your right brain knows you just threw away £2.
I almost never bet..:lol1: my approach to work ain't dedicated enough that I got much that I can afford to take a chance on... specially with kids to think about. I did win a few hundred quid on Bellew vs Haye cos I just knew and I tried to bet on Kovalev - Cleverly, but couldn't figure out the online betting in time. There's been a few since I've thought about, but I wouldn't go in heavy if I did.

Baltimore, Hart, Dec, Close
Baltimore, Fury, KO, Late
C'mon Baltimore ! :fest30:
We PICKED same on this card.
You ever been near the Upton Center on West Side, Pennsylvania Ave ?
I live in Harford Cnty now but grew up in Dundalk.
Good seeing O's n Ravens colors with your name.
Good Luck with the PICKS bro ! :biggthump
We got the same PICKS (incl X2) on this card. Hope your gut is right.
1 out of 3 on the other card.
Is betting points a thing or you ever do that ? I don't have much right now, but that seems like it would be fun one day.

Shit... Barrera vs Hart...:thinking: My head's 100% telling me Barrera is the more proven dude with the guts and resilience and that he's gonna be pressing the action even at 37 years old... But my gut's telling me its gonna be Hart's night one way or another, probably sharpshooting his way to a narrow PTS win over the older dude.
KOBA: Hart, DEC, CLOSE
KOBA: Fury, KO, MID x2
