Well, here's a victory that's more related to my lawyer skills than boxing capping:

I e-mailed Bodog with info about the new Jaro-Segura date, which definitively showed that Jaro would not be fighting Hernandez in the next 30 days (I originally thought the rule was 60 days, but it was actually 30 days). Bodog's response:

"While we understand the points you have made we must settle all wagers according to our wagering rules. Our boxing wagering rules do state that we must wait 30 days after the scheduled event before we can settle any fights that have not taken place."

My response:

"Thanks for your quick reply. My reading of your rule is different.

Your rule states: "Fights must take place within 30 days of the listed date of the fight or the bout will be graded 'no action.' "

That does not mean that you have to wait 30 days to grade a bout as "no action." Instead, it means that if a fight occurs 30 days after the listed date, it will be graded as no action. The rule does not expressly prevent the book from grading a fight as "no action" when it is officially cancelled. Your interpretation would be correct if the rule was written in this manner: "When a fight does not occur on the listed date, any wager on that fight will remain pending until 30 days have passed." However, that's not the way your rule is written.

There's no reason to keep the funds tied up when your rule doesn't expressly require them to be.

Thanks for your consideration in this matter."

I just got back from an errand, and the money is back in my account. Props to Bodog for listening to logic.

Nice A2C !
Good to hear logically thinking prevailing for once

I think the ghost of Jacko got even and took a major shit on me for my comments yesterday. Ghost, you were just collateral damage. Sorry man. That being said...may the everlasting beauty of Farrah shine down upon all and here's to Ed McMahon who was always number one in my book :toast: :toast:

I blame this all on the King of Pop

Any ideas why is Jean Marc Monrose favorite against Steve Herelius tomorrow in France?

Herelius has better record, is bigger and also has beaten Monrose in May. :shrug:

I'm not touching it, there is some catch I'm sure ...

I was doing some research on this fight and a French website (forget which one) indicated, if the English translation was accurate, that Herelius got dropped early in the fight and was saved by the bell. In a 12-round fight, maybe Monrose can catch Herelius again and finish him off this time? Maybe that's what the oddsmaker was thinking when making Monrose a slight favourite?

Well, since the glass-templed fukface Steffen Kretschmann cocked my Friday parlay, I am adding a play - the weepaul special.

MOLITOR-FOREMAN-ORTIZ
:toast:

If Molitor can't beat old ass Humberto Ruiz, then he better stop boxing.

I always put a throw-away on the under in Molitor fights, why should today be any different? I've about broken even.

Small bet on Simon, very small Tsurkan over, and medium on Ortiz under. This could turn out to be like Torres-Cotto from a few years back, especially if the rumors of Ortiz's chin have merit. I expect Ortiz to prevail, and won't bet either guy straight.

I agree with Ghost about a throw-away bet against Arce. His opponent is significantly smaller and weaker, but anybody is dangerous to Arce at this point.
