Got some crazy swings betting on galahads fight.Interesting issues this weekend.
Both here and on my betting site, Stanionis vs Collazo was meant to be 12 rounds. When did it become a ten rounder? I had picked Stanionis KO late here, and bet on him winning by KO either in the 10th or 11th... and they accepted the bet!
This morning, the money I had bet was given back to my betting account, and I still don't know if that was for the error in the indicated rounds, or the no-decision.
What woud have happened here if we had picked a result based on a wrong distance?
For the rest, I'm the usual idiot. Had thought all week about betting Galahad between 9 and 11, only to be once more influenced by the popular hype around Jazza, who I just knew was a level below Galahad. And, of course, wasted two tenners on a fùcking draw instead of cashing close to a coupla hundreds, had I kept my originally intended bet. Really pissed off.
had 7-12 galahad prefight. The KO odds dropped hard in r7 and I could cashout with a minimal difference.
then bet decision at 9.00, was too high for me at that point, odds dropped down when ****ens looked ok. Cashed out in r9 for 3x the stake.
then bet KO in r10 for 2.6.

Great stuff. It's unfortunate that I can't bet live on the US fights... I'm too old to wake up at 3AM to watch fights as I used to do when I was younger

I have to focus more on the fine details. And no, I didn't bet on that particular fight at least, preferring instead to waste even more money on a Conlan KO win when everybody knows that he could not knock out a bamboo cane.
I think it was always a 10 round fight and was just mistakenly assumed to be 12?

That article from Friday mentions it as a 10 round fight.
Just be glad you didn't bet Mykal Fox I guess...Last edited by Tatabanya; 08-08-2021, 06:22 AM.Comment
