    Paddies have an Aldo double chance. TKO/KO or Points @3.3

    What am I missing here?

    Ok, jumped on the bandwagon here. €20 down on Aldo so I'm a happy camper no matter who wins. (Still be sickened if Aldo wins though.)

    First shift in Aldo's price since the markets open (I believe). He's gone down to 2.38

    The sharps will pound that down quite a bit further by the time the fight kicks off.

    I don't know much about gambling...Is there any particular reason people say they are waiting until Vegas to put on bets? I'm guessing that's a really dumb question.

    When I see Americans say it, I assume it's something to do with gambling laws or something. But I've noticed a few Irish say it now as well, why delay with an accumulator?

    For some reason PP are only allowing me put 65 on Aldo for points...bullsh*t.

    65c? You should be thankful, thats more than some other people :pac::pac::pac:;)

    Its not really bs though, bookies always have limits on what bets they will take/prepared to payout. They're probably near their max to what they are prepared to risk and have lowered the max stakes. IMO you'll be happy in about 10 days thats they took off you :)

    I thought it might be because I've lumped a lot of cash into the fight already. Era 65 is sweet nothing. I'm just upset I cannot really get a good bet on for it at those odds.

    I don't get this either. Yesterday I placed a €30 bet on the double chance and then tried €150 after and it would only let me bet €65 - but I already had €30 on so now my total stake is €95 which makes no sense to me..

    Thats what I was getting at. Say for example PP have decided to risk 1mil in payouts on this market and maybe at present their outlay would be 900k so they've set a limit for what each punter can stake so everyone can get a nibble of it. I know it doesn't seem like bookies are that thoughtful but it does happen.

    A simple yet effective suggestion and a lot easier than opening multiple accounts online. The last few bookie accounts I've tried to open online they've wanted me to provide ID,etc so it might be difficult to have multiple accounts

    Virtually every booking is offering Jise Aldo on points? I've no idea what bet you are talking about.

    Seriously? I highlighted the bits that are key so this wouldn't happen.

    Double chance bet
    Aldo to win by KO/TKO or points

    Read back over the posts. Andre was talking about betting on Aldo on points, I replied to him.
    What's the double chance for to do with any of that??

    Edit: Paddy Power have the double chance market, it's just not on oddschecker. Unibet habe it too, they just call it "win by finish"

    He replied to my post about betting on the double chance and said he could only get €65 so assumed he meant the same bet.

    Dunno why he'd limit himself to one bookie if that was the case.

    Still can't get more money on the double chance without the help of others.

    As I said, go back and check it again. It wasn't a reply to you, and it said "Aldo on points"

    See my edit above, paddy power and unibet have it too.
    Also, it's no different than betting on sub and KO as separate bets. In fact sonetimes that way is better odds. Especially if you use different bookies.

    Edit:
    The sub/ko double chance is on Bet365 and SkyBet too. Check under the method of victory market.

    You'd be fairly sick if he won by sub after lumping on pts or ko,id have a saver on the sub for the stake back.

    You're so pedantic at times it's a joke. I had mentioned the bet before, in text, and obviously highlighted the wrong line. Look above that highlighted line. Christ

    Lighten up ffs.
    You busted into the middle of a conversation, assuming everyone was talking about you. Made a big deal about an image you highlight but didn't even get the line right. You deserved a piss-take for that.

    Christmas will be paid for with a nice lump on Nate Diaz lighting MJ up like the seasonal Christmas tree


    At odds of 3/1 its insulting Diaz is the better boxer,If MJ wants to take it to the ground ill expect him to be triangled and submitted with ease by Nate who is taking this training camp serious.
