    Gee mate, I hope you're not going to gamble more than you can afford. I know you know your stuff, but all it takes is one punch and it can all fall apart.
    Can you afford the loss?

    Yeah you're right Shane, I think I would have an easier time explaining to mundine that beating Pablo Nievas via decision does not make you p4p :nono

    Pecks - thanks for the concern but win lose or draw I will be fine, the worst that can happen is the law of probability will play out and I will take what comes of that without unreasonable concern either way

    I hope the interest rates arn't to hi because you'll be paying off your loan for a long time:deal

    Actually I use the credit card as a mechanism to move funds around my accounts uncluding my betting account. I am touched so many people are concerned.

    So what would you predict the odds should be for the fight?

    I think it might be a bit more than that, perhaps something over 50K.
    Damn it, I wanted to see Greeny win ( I don't think he will though), but this guy is the gentleman of ESB. I don't want to see him do big money on it.

    man parting with 50 large would **** me up - i think tarver will be the fave and paying about $1.90 so he could potentially double his money which would be awesome :D

    im going to put a bet on holyfield because he is paying $4 for the win :hey

    The betting market in Australia is a relatively illiquid so unless it was a major fight like Mundine vs Green where big volumes of cash was being held I doubt one could get $50k on even if one wanted to. The biggest bet I have ever made was $12k for Mundine to beat Green, $15k on Mundine to KO Soliman and the same on Kessler to KO Beyer. I have lost $35k in the last six months (still ahead so all is well) so its fair to say that if you play with fire sometimes you get burnt.

    I will be interested to see the odds on Green vs Tarver. I think Tarver might be a very good value bet

    Ivery much doubt you'll get value for Tarver i think he'll start at about $1.40 so you'd have to probaly back Tarver by ko to get over even money and since you did your cash last time hoping danny would get ko'd i'd leave your money in your pocket this time:good

    Oops meant to say $15k on Mundine to KO Soliman not Green, I just bet on the straight win on Mundine vs Green
