Why don't we have a betting odds and picks section of the forum?
 
I bet money on a lot of fights and I have to normally go to other sites to see what others peoples opinions are on what fights to bet on and which picks are the smartest. I would love to see what kind of interest we would have if we started to post the odds and see what everyone thought on the fights.

For example for UFC 103 I bet real light on Trigg and Franca just cause they were such huge underdogs (I wish I had included Daley in my underdog bets). I also bet heavy on Dos Santos and Vitor and I came in way in the plus.

I like this. This would help me with my bets as well. Also with my ufc fantasy picks.

I post a link to my gambling picks in the Noobie section. Went 7-1 on the two UFC events this past week, losing only on Guillard (who gave the fight away)

See I love to see the way other people bet. What was the payout on that parlay you were so close! Theres a big difference between picking fights and betting on the fights. Betting just beings a whole new excitement to watching the PPV's. I almost had a heart attack when I saw Crocop start to land those straight lefts on Dos Santos lol.

It would be great to post which websites have what kind of odds and which one would be the best to bet on. Also maybe a small explanation of how "American" odds work. When I first started to bet money I had no idea and no clue on how to. There are probably some people on these forums who might want to bet but just don't know how.

Dude there isn't. Thats for betting with FAKE money and that doesn't involve odds at all. I am talking bout betting with REAL money and odds make it a lot harder to pick a fight and place money on it.

Actually it does involve odds. The idea of using real money is unreasonable. It takes a lot of jumping through hoops to get a gambling license, and, even if they did, why would they provide a forum for people to discuss the odds. That would give the gamblers an advantage.

I bet on bodog.com Their interface is all very simple and easy to comprehend. You could also go to sportsbook.com betus.com bookmaker.com and oddsmaker.com Those are the sites that I know of off the top of my head. Good luck to yah bro.
