geeez i can't believe you still don't get it, its really simple, three or four people have already tried explaining it, you do make a prophet if you bet on diego and he wins
If you bet on the guy that's expected to win with 1:1 odds, and the guy wins you multiply your stake by 1.0. If you bet on the guy that's expected to loose by a 2:1 margin and and the underdog wins, you multiply your wager by 2.0.
Ex. Liddell vs. Ortiz is currently running at 3:1 in favor of Liddell. If you bet say 1000 points on Ortiz and he wins (which he will not) you triple your money. But because Liddell is expected to win it would be a push if you bet on him.

Amount won = amount gained. Its not like they lost their money and got it back. the risked thier money and got more back. They won other money not their own.

There not listening to you cabby. Someone told me on another thread that they bet on Gomi at the last Bushido and his odds were 1/2 and they only got half the money they bet back. AND I AM NOT SAYING THEY BET 1000 and got 1000 + 500 back I am saying they just got 500 back. I am not sure if this is true cause i have never bet on a 1/1.

Yes that is true...and I am just as confused as cabby. I know exactly what he's talking about. You bet your money and you get it back. That's it. You put in 1000 5 minutes before the fight and get that 1000 back if the guy wins. If he loses then you are out 1000 bucks. It makes no sense to me. What is the point of putting your 1000 down if you are not going to get at least 1001 back? If you are gonna put your money down on something, you might as well put it down on the underdog, because either way you are risking 1000, but 1 way you might get 3000 back, or lose 1000, and the other way you might get 1000 back, or lose 1000. So what would be the logical choice? To bet on the underdog in every fight right? Well if that's the case then what's the point of betting? It's not like a fighter with 3:1 odds actually only has a 33% chance of beating the other guy. It's impossible to determine that so the smart choice would be to bet on the underdog everytime since you have little to lose and lot to gain as opposed to the favored where you have little to lose and none to gain. And what's even worse are the 1:2 odds. 1:1 is like a break even:lose situation, 2:1 and above are like a win:lose situation and 1:2 or lower is like a lose:lose situation. Explain that one to me please.
25,000 on Diego, because adminmma said that if I bet on a 1/1 fighter I will double my points back. So if I have 1,000 points and bet it all on Diego I would end up having 2,000 points if he wins.

I know I gave an example like that already. I was just saying that so many people were saying you wouldn't get anything on a 1/1 fighter and that seemed kinda stupid and didn't make sense. Thats why I PM'd you to get it cleared up.
yah its jst kind of dumb cause in real money sports betting 1/1 odds would mean you only get your money back with no profit and 2/1 would mean you get double what you bet. But in real betting they give you odds like 1.5/1 instead of saying 1/2 to 1 which on here means that if you bet 2 and won you would get 3 back.
