Here is how it works. You pick 20 fighters. It lasts a year. You start with 10,000 Monopoly dollars. This game is based on the fighters and the moneylines. Whoever has the most money is the winner. I'll use this fight as an example. Jason miller is +185. Say you choose him and wager 500 dollars. that would return 925 dollars in profit  if he won and your total would be 10,925. If you choose Bisping and he is around -225 and you wagered 675 dollars on him and he won you would get 300 dollars profit and you would have 10,300. Of course if they lose you would deduct what you lost from 10,000. no draft either. Pick any 20 fighters you want and send them to me or Poir420 who is co-comish.

 

A couple of rules are you have to wager at least 500 dollars per fight. There is no max so if you think that fighter has no chance of losing put all your "fake" monopoly money on him. if you lose thats the end of the game for you. You will need some money management skills to win. You can pick as many women as you want too. If a fighter gets injured there are no replacements. So you start with 20 and might end up with 10 left if you have bad luck. I got three people interested so far and i was goig to have 10 people  play but if there is more interest i will raise the number of people on Tapology that can play. Since this is off the top of my head just ask me a question if you don't get it and want to particpate. Thank You.

So does Tapology even update it's odds the week of? I personally have never noticed a moneyline on here different from what it was when it was first posted.

@wolf I didn't mean as far as how long this has been going on, I just didn't know if the mods went and updated the odds for every fight everytime they changed, it just seems like it would be a lot of extra work so I was curious if they even did.

I love the Nogueira's, but neither of those guys is a very safe bet anymore.
