UFC 58 USA vs Canada!!

[Alfuh]

Here it is! You are finally able to bet on team vs. team!

Team USA -3.5 -150
Team Canada +3.5 +120

Since everyone knows the US will straight up annihilate Canada there will be a 'fight spread' to try to even the field out. At -3.5 this would mean that Team USA will have to win 6 of the 8 fights in the night to be the winner while Team Canada will have to win 3 of the 8 fights to claim victory in the spread.


As a reminder the full card is:
USA vs. Canada
Rich Franklin vs. David Loiseau (Middleweight Title)

BJ Penn vs. Georges St. Pierre (Welterweights)

Yves Edwards vs. Mark Hominick (Lightweights)

Mike Swick vs. Steve Vigneault (Middleweights)

Spencer Fisher vs. Sam Stout (Lightweights)

Nathan Marquardt vs. Joe Doerksen (Middleweights)

Jason Lambert vs. Rob MacDonald (Light Heavyweights)

Tom Murphy vs. Christophe Midoux (Heavyweights)

America is the best at everything.

Bahahha! Puny Canadians! And the best part is that the 20 bet is in Canadian vCash! That's like 25 American cents!

[BadBoy]

Hey man i only had $20 left and thought id go with the underdogs... i really dont give a shit who wins this America vs Canada thing

[BadBoy]

All that matters to me is G S P vs Penn and Louiseu vs Franklin

[PickleDick]

i just put my last 25 on canada. Even though the only canadians that i would bet real money on in this fight is GSP & Dirty.

[Alfuh]

I can't beleive two people have put a combined 45 vCash on Canada. Canada doesn't have to win more fights than the US, they don't have to tie the US, they have to only lose by 2. That's all it takes for them to beat the spread. NO ONE even thinks they will pull that off?? Pathetic.

[dr.rhonna]

this bet is definitely off, there were 9 fights before, canada have to win 3 to cover the spread

now there's 8 fights, so canada only have to win 2, gsp and larenas should be able to do it even without further upsets, i bet my entire vcash br on canada

This is an event I made the spread and odds for. This is NOT the sportsbook spread and odds and Canada DOES have to win 3 fights to beat the spread. I thought I made that clear in the first post. If not ... well, I can't refund your vCash without cancelling the entire event, which won't happen, sorry.

you're right actually. i didn't care enough about my vcash to go thru the calculations. the paradox here is with a -3.5 spread, canada have to win 3 fights no matter if there are 9 fights on the card or 8 fights, quite interesting...

let my bet stand and i'll prepare to be poor

[ventrue]

500 for the U.S.

[ilostmydog]

Just 2 more wins to go. Go Canada!!!

[PickleDick]

so who won this shit? i don't understand that spread shit at all.

[Chan Ho Nam]

Canada won 3 fights so I get paid, right?

[dy-no-mite3000]

Canada won 3 fights so I get paid, right?
As delta would say "AMERIKA" won 5 fights to 3.


America takes the win and the vcash

[fightguy]

WTF?!? Elgig bet 25K on Canada?!?

You are a disgrace to our great nation elgigante. You make me puke

[ilostmydog]

Hey! We beat the spread, where's our vcash!

[SnjoNegri]

*Exclamation posints*

[ilostmydog]

Why'd USA get paid out for this? They needed to win 6 to cover the spread, and they won only 5!!! GRRRR!!!

We won 3, covered the spread, and are outraged at this injustice!

[Alfuh]

Just wanted to point out that I did NOT result this vBookie.

This will have to be something for the admins to deal with.
