Today betting only on Dreamhack Open:

Heretics vs C0ntact - MY BET
x6tence vs mousesports - MY BET
North vs Endpoint - MY BET

Heretics vs C0ntact should be an even match although I'm going for Heretics here, x6tence bet is completely unlogical but at 6.28 odds I will give them a chance will small 5€ bet and North should be clear favorites and odds ain't that bad for such team (1.40) so at least that most likely will be a guarantee win even if other two bets will fail

DOTA pit returns today and I have already placed my bets on team Nigma against NaVi, I have them as basic ML @1.55 on my multi and I have a single that Nigma wins 2:0 @2.7 (SB boost). Should come easily according to the stats (latest form, recent H2H) and eye test. I am not touching the rest of eSports for now. Maybe I'll add another ticket later.

Heretic - c0ntact over 2.5 looks good for me and will be part of that other ticket for sure if I decide to play it.

I'm very much disappointed with the run and performance of Fnatic Dota 2 on the BTS Pro series SEA. Execration has already been eliminated and Fnatic is endangered to be the next team. It's either Team 032 or Fnatic that will be out of the tournament. If Fnatic wins against Neon with 2-0, they are still in and 032 is out. But if not, 032 is in and Fnatic out.

Why did you take Sprout map 2. Do you know that map will be Sprout pick? If affirmative how do you know that? Usually underdogs picks first but that is not always the case. Is there some kind of rule?
to anwser the first question: I thought they were the higher ranked team and would pick 2nd map 😂😭

as for the rules: in some tourneys, as you know, the lower ranked team picks first, like in the ESL pro league. Same thing happens in DreamHack where they take into account the Regional Major Rankings. But, i forgot about RMR and i assumed that Sprout were the higher ranked because of the HLTV ranking, but, to my surprise, FATE are oficially the higher ranked team,, See here: https://liquipedia.net/counterstrike/DreamHack/2020/Fall/Europe/Qualifier (meh, low stake acca =P my main ticket will be on EG - Team Liquid later today)

but there are some tournaments where there's no ranking system and teams will knife before the match and the winner will choose which team ban/picks first

DreamHack qualifiers starts today, so here goes an acca, been a while since i placed one of those https://i.ibb.co/wLgCrKF/ezpz.png
Following you with very similar multi for low stake. I just took Sprout to win 2:0 and added one more game x6tence over 2.5 for boost. That way your ticket will be a wining one and that one game will screw me over  Wink
Why did you take Sprout map 2. Do you know that map will be Sprout pick? If affirmative how do you know that? Usually underdogs picks first but that is not always the case. Is there some kind of rule? I usually wait for map picks and then place those kinds of bet live.

@toke  do you know a bookie that's offering lines for the ASL Season10? the books that i use don't offer brood war events
Try FortuneJack, I know he bets there often

Couple of bets for today:

EG vs Liquid - MY BET
Furia vs Chaos - MY BET
Gen.G vs Cloud9 - MY BET

Considering recent form of both teams Liquid at odds 2.22 is imo a bargain, Furia are clear favorites there is no doubt and Gen.G vs C9 will be an even matchup although personally I have placed bet on Gen.G.

i'll be following Heroic - OG (O2.5 maps), i'm expecting a close match
EDIT* OGarbage, ffs! go back to Nine to Five and Eden Arena



Same pick as you, and a third straight losing ticket this week for me (1-4 overall), previous two lost thanks to the unpredictable mousesports (who by the way beat Vitality today and qualified for the playoffs)...strange times! ESL Pro (EU) playoff phase will resume on 29th, so i think i will take that week off to clear my head. hehe

Reminder that event though there are 12 esl pro matches today, only a couple actually matter: Vitality - Mouse and OG - Heroic. These are the only teams in EU that still have a chance to qualify to playoffs, loser is KO'd form the tourney. NA teams still have a few matches left so a lot can happen

i'll be following Heroic - OG (O2.5 maps), i'm expecting a close match, if both teams go with the expected bans&picks, then we'll see Inferno-Nuke (Heroic could prolly Mirage? but they've been shit in this map lately)-Overpass.  OG only lost once on Inferno in the league, same as Heroic on Nuke, so it could be worth it to throw some money (low stake, ofc) on each team to win their mappicks (IF we see those picks)
EDIT* OGarbage, ffs! go back to Nine to Five and Eden Arena

Here's an Esport event you guys could like:  https://liquipedia.net/starcraft/2020_AfreecaTV_Starleague_Season_10

Matches are aired live here:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK5eBtuoj_HkdXKHNmBLAXg

I've been doing 2 leg parlays at plus money on the favorites.  Been doing good so far.  Grin  And the games are fun to watch.  It averages around 15 mins long, unlike Dota.  I don't think I have the attention span for it.  Lol.

I also don't understand why the books still favoring Faze instead of NIP. Faze have zero win currently but NIP won against mousesports and atleast won 1 map in the other 2 series.

I think 2 unit on +1.5 handicap and 1 unit on NIP ML look good for me.

Probably because NiP is playing without nawwk who is on medical leave. Their coach will play instead of him. I wrote a post about it yesterday so check that one.

Yesterday I managed to get all my bets correct but I don't like the offer today. So I am skipping eSports and betting on tennis.

FaZe vs NiP - MY BET

especially considering the fact that FaZe is in even worse form than NiP.

Some good wins yesterday, especially Gen.G, today I'm going for:

Spirit vs mouse - MY BET
FaZe vs NiP - MY BET
Liquid vs Cloud9 - MY BET

Apart from mouse bet which is even match my two other picks are clearly underdogs respectivelly at 2.92 and 3.40 odds. Seems kinda crazy but recently that strategy gave me some profits so for now I will stick to it  especially considering the fact that FaZe is in even worse form than NiP and Liquid is far from their greatness. Hope to hit at least another 2/3

yesterday was a good day, Furia finally won vs. EG and i got my biggest win in the last couple of weeks in a single bet

Well that's a hard one you managed to win. EG have been running pretty hot for a while. Here is some fact from hltv twitter: EG were running on 14 match win streak until now and their winning streak also started with them defeating Furia at Blast Premier Spring 2020.

Well we can say that Furia took a sweet revenge.  Cheesy


in the meantime, FaZe Clan are wondering who was the smartass who let Bymas go 😭🤣

Maybe they didn't had much confidence in him. Faze have been changing their squads a lot. And with the performance they are giving, I am smelling a change again soon.

Thanks for sharing the screenshot, when I was checking the odds on loot bet yesterday it's bugging out for me if I scroll down to the bottom of the page the same matches appear over and over.
Bad luck  Undecided The odds is already decresed by half now. I was looking for Among Us vs Fnatic too but its not there yet.

However, Forev becomes a standin again, so Fnatic has a better roster now. But still I hope Boom will 2-0 them  Grin

Vita-COL is the highlight today...i got O2.5 maps in this one. The french boys haven't looked too convincing in the tourney but seems like they found their groove in the last couple of matches, i can see them winning their pick. COL have been looking a little shaky lately but they need to bounce back from tha loss yesterday, no? they have to ban D2 today and pick Nuke/Mirage, VIT have been poor in those maps
Vitality was so bad  Undecided. They lost on the map they picked.

Anyway, where do you guys see live score and team status such as map win percentage? I see HLTV still has a delay.

Following the news that NiP has put nawwk on medical leave and that their coach will take the position is it maybe time for FaZe to finally get their first win in the competition? I think so and will place a bet on them for the match tomorrow. I hoped for better odds but @1.6 is not that bad.
odds went down to 1.5 in some books, suspiciously low for a team with a 0/5 record, but then again, NiP are the 2nd worst team in Group B, and nawwk has been instrumental in the maps NiP has won so far, i smell a win for faze too...Best of luck in that single bet strategy

BYMAS GODLIKE 1V3 CLUTCH FOR MATCHPOINT https://clips.twitch.tv/AffluentTenaciousPigSmoocherZ

Wow that's good. Bymas didn't had any professional level experience before Faze and to clutch 1v3 so quick shows how quickly he is making progress. Good for him and mousesports.

Good job on taking those underdog picks. That 2-0 from mousesports was unexpected.

That's indeed. Complexity are a very good team and beating them 2-0 sounds like a very good sign from mousesports.

Yeah saw the news of nawwk being out on medical leave. Quite a bad news for the team and is good opportunity for Faze to capitalize on. Faze is also going through bad form recently. So I am still not sure about winner tho, could go anyway. I usually go with over 2.5 maps in such matches tho.
