i would have tought because the market changed it would be a void bet, altought they may have changed the bet to 6-10 ko rounds instead as the fight was shortened, they may have just moved the goal posts so as the speak.

They refunded it eventually but only after I continued to hound them.

I was going to ask that too. Diaz is 4-1 and is significantly taller
Thing is McGregor is probably now at his natural weight class at 170. He had to severely weight drain to get down to 145 and even 155. Diaz is coming in at 2 weeks notice and his style is tailor made for McGregor in that he will probably stand and trade. The person that will beat McGregor is one who is able to get him on the ground and keep him there. Diaz might get him down but I don't think he has the fitness or conditioning to keep him down. Saying that, it's a funny sport and one that has had it's fair few upsets in recent times.
Thanks....I just think there are a lot more betting 'upsets' in MMA than boxing. And Conor looks short next to Diaz....

Think Conor himself said 155 would be his best fighting weight. I think he walks around in the 170s. He said he's been on the 2 breakfasts and steak diet and is still comfortably under 170. Agree about the draining himself to make 145, no idea how he ever did it.

Always nice to see this promotion again, and I will be partaking!
but it won't be enough to clear the whole bonus. So 365 have this 'on the move' bonus where you have to stake on your mobile. But I thought only the initial stake has to be on your mobile. Now, I won the Diaz bet but I placed it on my desktop and the funds have gone into my bloody bonus account and haven't counted towards my bonus clearance count. So anyone doing this promotion make sure you just make all your bets on your phone.

So what do we think for the free in play bet strategy? Have I done this right?
Chelsea 9/5 £53.57 stake returns £150+50 free = £200
Draw 12/5 £50 free bet returns £170
PSG 17/10 £55.56 returns £150+50 free = £200
outlay £159.13
£10.87 guaranteed win on draw, £40.87 guaranteed win for either a Chelsea or PSG win?
might do the full £170 outlay to put towards clearing my bonus and not win on the draw.

Very popular that bet was. All the lads at work had it too. Well done. Now lamp it all on the Flannigan stoppage.

What price is that? I'm hoping to try and build a war chest for Cheltenham!
