Default Bet Ideas
To spice things up a bit in Vbookie land especially when things are slow like right now, I'm taking suggestions on things to bet on. Prefferably MMA related but they don't have to be fights (like Sherk's appeal).

One Idea I have but we can't do for a bit is I'll probably add in some over/under odds on Forrest-Shogun and Jardine-Chuck where you can bet on whether or not they make it out of the first round.

Can't think of anything good of the top of my head, but i like the idea of betting on something besides who will win the Forrest-Shogun and Jardine-Chuck fights.

You could bet on what round the above fights will end in, Eg:

Forrest-Shogun
-Round 1 100/325
-Round 2 100/150
-Round 3 275/100
-Judges ?can this fight really go the distance to the judges? i don't know what to even guess for odds.

Default pick the day contest?
How about a pick the day Fedor signs with the UFC. Closest to the day gets all of the points???

how about posting odds on future events, not just what’s next? Not necessarily to bet on so you don't tie up your v cash, but just to put up in advance. Personally I like to bet real cash and when I see a line move around a lot, I take notice. i.e. Jackson vs. Henderson, most places started it out at 100/130, but now it's more like 100/115. I like it at 130 but not at 115. It is hard to find a place that has all the odds on upcoming fights not just the headliners like most other sites. Also it would be great to here veteran opinions on those early odds. IMO anyway

usually the odds for fights arnet even up on betting sites untill about a month away from the event, and someone usually gets them up as soon as they are released

It takes too much work to keep adjusting the lines on the future events so we keep it one or two events at a time. Plus when other events are already out it fucks up the system where people get more money when they go in the hole (took me a while to figure that one out)

yeah I see your point, people would have their v-money tied up. What I was trying to say is it would be nice just to have the odds up, not to bet on it though. Just wanted to hear other veterans opinions about future fights, thats all
