i haven't checked yet. How high is it?
Last time I checked the minimum is somewhere around 4mbtc (~$120) and the same goes for all their altcoin minimums.

I wasn't able to tune in on the first game of Team Liquid earlier but that was one hell of a comeback though down 80k gold at one point.

Also feeling good about this over on OG and Tundra last time it ended 2-1 for Tundra and expecting the series to go all the way again since Tundra is starting to look like a decent team plus OG gave a map two times in a row.

hell of a game between FaZe and Astralis. Too bad the former messed up my Over maps ticket, but at least we got to enjoy a thrilling map 2 with triple OT

Fortunejack's new promo, pretty awesome 👍 I may start using my FJ acc again  Cheesy
The odds are crazy good but i'll skip the promo since their min withdrawal is too high for me.

Yesterday backed easy favourites G2 against Complexity and Natus Vincere when they were 1 map down against Renegades and won both.

Today we have really good matches in IEM Cologne:

Astralis vs Faze
Heroic vs Spirit
NIP vs Gambit (Feels easy for Gambit,no?)
Liquid vs mousesports
G2 vs BIG (G2 definitely)
Complexity vs Virtus.pro

Some does feel like easy matches but there are some players in other teams which can mess that up. I myself am gonna just bet some on G2 and maybe even on NIP and back off from the rest. Too hard to pick a side.

The Stake promo for IEM is to refund bet cost so long as your team won the 1st map just fyi.    Spirit live bet was awesome they came back, odds were way out as if it was finished already.

Tried similar again today with Mousesports vs Gambit because it was near equal outcome possible yet odds skewed as high as 6 to 1;  they did fail but it was still worth a long shot.   Odds jumping around so much, I have to find the ignore odds change thing its so irritating, theres a slight risk in doing so but I get its changeable when live and it has cashout on there anyhow.   Mouse was a bit flaky was my brief conclusion on that game.

Liquid over mouse tomorrow and watch if Nip odds can spike upwards vs Gambit or just bet 3 maps on both games seems fair.  Think I'll bet favorite and kinda hedge with 3 maps, then I'm covered especially because of that offer perhaps; see if it works  Tongue

I booked the over maps in OG - Nigma. A classic.

Its currently on the 3rd map. Its really is a classic bet to take whenever two top tier teams play against each another and almost a guaranteed to win bet each time.

Edit : 2-1 , OG wins

Anyway , TI10 has been announced that it will be held on Bucharest on 7th October. Thats literally two months away after this Regional Qualifiers end and we wont have any competitive scene in between
I see both pros and cons with that decision. It will be very hard for us bettors to judge the teams in early games. All teams will work on their strategies behind closed doors and we will see some new mini meta for the competition for sure.

Yeah and we wont have any dota 2 competitive scene to bet on until 7th October which is sucks. It was supposed to be on August but due to the covid19 situation, it was delayed.

I am expecting lots of surprises and a couple of really strange games, probably even some heroes we have not seen for a long a time.

China region teams will most likely come up with a very strange draft most of the time and well there is a nasty rumour spreading around about this TI10 could be the last TI so well I hope that this is going to be best.

I'm also betting on the last match of the EU qualifier but I went with Team Nigma since I feel like their draft will be more stable compared to OG. Hopefully we get a 2-1 win for Team Nigma this time.

After the 1st game yesterday, I think that OG is way better than Nigma. Im not sure wether Nigma was still keeping their secret draft yesterday because they totally went with almost the same draft on the last Animajor and OG was totally dominating yesterday so if things are still the same then OG might win today

Over 2.5 maps on this game seems about fair though. Sportsbet had it at 1.97 which is pretty decent imo

OG - Nigma

I booked the over maps in OG - Nigma. A classic. Last time they met was last month and OG won 2-1. Same result today? losing team will go to the lower bracket so players won't be under too much pressure

So, what are we watching/betting on this fine evening, guys?

Tundra - Liquid
OG - Nigma
Vitality - FURIA
BIG - Virtus.Pro

I booked the over maps in OG - Nigma. A classic. Last time they met was last month and OG won 2-1. Same result today? losing team will go to the lower bracket so players won't be under too much pressure

Team Spirit losing to Sprout right now, mostly because spirit are screwing up looks like.
Game was too close. Should've been a walk in the park for the russians.
They'll play vs. Heroic tomorrow, no chance for Spirit imo. Quick 2-0 Heroic and prep for the next match

Team Spirit losing to Sprout right now, mostly because spirit are screwing up looks like.   Seems like a silly loss but maybe team spirit dont yet deserve top tier status, I took a bet at 3 to 1 anyhow.   They better start playing properly, I dont really expect them to win they are disjointed in play but they certainly can so worth a punt.
   Just as I write that they start managing to carve up Sprout between them via decent team work, divide and conquer which is hard for any team to beat.

Go with underdogs far more, bo1 is far more a wildcard result possibility.   I'm pretty sure pro teams really dislike results set by bo1 because they all know they can lose a map especially when an enemy team prepares for that map vs them.

The Navi game yesterday was a dream playout, with such an advantage against them they went to as far as 7 to 1 odds to win which I was lucky to get.   Epic struggle they somehow manage to play all 4 possible maps in that series after losing the first they come back to win triple vs worlds ranked #1 team anyway.   Thats after completing 3 maps just before this game, nice endurance by them because I thought they slip due to that factor but odds too nice not to take.


Right now Mibr vs endpoint over 2x odds for mibr yet both teams took a map and are near drawing so could go either way; endpoint is higher rank yet, thats a decent bet quite possibly.  Brazilian teams not to be underrated.

Friendly reminder that IEM Cologne (play-in) starts tomorrow

https://liquipedia.net/counterstrike/Intel_Extreme_Masters/Season_XVI/Cologne

to all bettors, remember, the first matches are best-of-1, so imo total rounds is the way to go unless you find value in moneyline (although most games look very one-sided, at least on paper)

On the NA region for Dota 2, the TI10 qualifier. I was rooting for a different team and not the winner but I acknowledge how strong the team of Undying based from their roster. No memes this TI10 I guess, there's no EE sama as his team Bumble bEE's didn't qualify.
There are two more regions to go, Western Europe Qualifier and China Qualifier. Two strong regions, the clash is for real on those regions.
Chinese teams will definitely dominate this next TI because I don't find OG that much making any headline meaning that the other teams in the region are going to be much weaker. I didn't expect EE to get in because he doesn't seem to be in the right team plus he is probably up on his crazy strategies.
I'm rooting for OG to take that slot. What if they will show the same thing as what they've done in the past. That, from the qualifiers they've stomped all of their opponents and made an easy entry for the TI10. But I'm also doubting that they will do the same thing because their  roster isn't the same as before. Sumail and Saksa are good players, they're one of the best but that chemistry with Ana and Jerax will always be the same.

OG has lot of potential on there current roster but there's a lot of strong team too on the EU TI qualifiers especially Nigma as there arch enemy. I will not hope that much on OG since there pos1 is Sumail. He is good but he didn't believe that much on team work that's why he keeps jumping on different team whenever he face elimination.

Chinese or Sea team has the best chance to win the TI10 because there's a lot of power house team there that completely master the current meta just like LGD, Aster and Vici.

On top of this it felt like EU became a mid tier region at best I know there's a lot of good teams in the region but they usually underperform when it comes to the international stage.

Cheering Elephant and Team Nigma to get the last two TI spots and looking forward to the other EU teams as well.
That's what I was feeling too, it's like something happened in the region that they don't have any big news in their side, on the other hand Chinese teams are pretty consistent with what they are doing. Speaking of Team Nigma, no good plays are highlighted that came from them that's been shared around the Internet.
