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.

I will play several singles today as way to test new way of betting on the matches I am not comfortable enough to put high stakes on. I will put 1mBTC on first match and if it wins I will continue down the list and see what I will end up with in the end. Second match will have a stake in a way that I return that one mBTC to the bank and if they both pass all other matches will higher stakes (50% of winnings to the bank, 50% added to base stake of 1mBTC). If first bet looses I will get 2 free bets on Sportsbet (their new promo) anyway so I see it as win-win Smiley

For first match I have chosen Gambit - Godsent over 2.5 @2.0

Some of the other games I have been looking at are:
Viking.gg ML @2.2
Heroic over  2.5

Good day yesterday, 2/3 including two wins of underdogs at odds over 2.5 (mouse and furia), only ence kinda disappointed. Bets for today:

NaVi vs Heroic - MY BET

Gen.G vs 100 Thieves - MY BET

Vitality vs COL - MY BET

Continuing my strategy of betting on underdogs in decent form (at least in comparision to their opponents) by placing a bet on Gen.G (2.60 odds). NaVi and Vitality should play even matches although I think they are slight favorites in their matchups

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

Good thing I didn't place my bets too early on Fnatic now that they have a decent offlaner. They just announced that Forev will be their stand in offlaner with iceiceice and eyyou officially out of the roster. Now that the support is the only difference in their lineup they'll probably end up drawing against BOOM.

My bets for today:

COL vs mouse - MY BET
OG vs ENCE - MY BET
FURIA vs EG - MY BET

Dota 2 fans here? We have some surprising roster shuffle from Chinese doto with the teams of Vici Gaming, PSG.LGD and EHOME.
<...>
that's a lot of changes ahead of the Pro Cup Season 1...might be a good idea to skip these three teams in the bet slips while they get used to the new changes
The new roster of PSG.LGD will have their debut match with Team Aster which is also a good team. I guess it's good to test some bets for Team Aster than the new roster, just saying.
If 23savage isn't playing for BTS pro SEA, we've get to see his debut match with his new team too.

Vitality took Fnatic map pick and I am thinking they are finishing the job here on Dust2. Fnatic has really poor record on that map. One just 1 from last 4.
that's what i get for expecting something from swedish bots  Sad  at least Vitality looked good yesterday, i think they'll put up a good fight against Complexity tomorrow

mouse at 2.68 and furia at 2.60 are imho definitely worth a try
? ? ?  Mouse are FaZe tier of bad and Furia have a mental block whenever they face EG, i don't see any value there but, good luck,, i might throw some mBtc on Furia +1.5 at 1.56 edit* fair play, bruv

For PSG.LGD, Xiao8 returns to PSG.LGD and brings with him the majority of EHOME roster
I'm surprised that xiao8 is back as a coach.  Smiley

For EHOME, Sccc returns as EHOME announce a new roster

While for VG, Vici Gaming recruits 23savage, old eLeVeN to new Dota 2 roster

This is like there's a swap of players for these teams.


New roster: Vici Gaming
1. 23savage
1. Erica(sub)
2. Ori
3. old eLeVeN   
4. Pyw
5. Dy

COL vs mouse - MY BET
OG vs ENCE - MY BET
FURIA vs EG - MY BET

2/3 yesterday, today I'm going mostly for underdogs, mouse at 2.68 and furia at 2.60 are imho definitely worth a try, og vs ence should be an even matchup although I think that ence is slightly better team and considering 50/50 odds it should be an easy win

It's still there at loot.bet (https://loot.bet/tournaments/dota-2)  Wink
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.

Im running good again. EG is just to finish my last parlay I think.

Got this on for today, just a fun one.
I also have a similar parlay with only the three heavy favorites.

i'm waiting for VIT-FNT, i have O2.5 maps on this one https://i.ibb.co/ynYPQ6X/ayaya.png
Both teams have been kinda meh lately, winning comfortably here and there but also losing to lower ranked teams, have a feeling this is gonna be a hard-fought battle

FaZe going to the decider vs. Spirit rn, impressive...
  Cheesy

Tough stretch for FaZe (#punchingbag), 5th straight loss for them in ESL Pro League and no chance to make the playoffs now.
At least they got one map this time, 1st and only one in the tournament  Lol, i really needed it for my main bet today though, FaZe O2.5 + Vitality ML (i hope the french don't stink up the joint against fnatic)
I had a bet against FaZe from couple a days ago and I was afraid for a moment when they looked good in the first map but that was all they showed today. After that it was Spirit all the way.

What are your thoughts on the Astralis vs. NiP match later today?
Over or Astralis in two? Last three meeting between the two, NiP have three wins (5-1 maps), i'm leaning towards the O2.5

Seems like they're adjusting the odds now that I can't find any markets on that series. I'll still take them as long as the odds stay within even. Fnatic's roster won't go that far without iceiceice.

FaZe vs Spirit - MY BET

Vitality vs fnatic - MY BET

Astralis vs NiP - MY BET

Vitality and Astralis are clear favorites. Recent form od FaZe is terrible but it's still a team with skilled individualities and imho it's worth a try especially at 2.38 odds

Take a look on the upcoming match between Fnatic and BOOM on 19 September.  It looks like the sportsbook is still favoring Fnatic and its a very juicy odds to bet on BOOM.

Hopefully fnatic didnt play very bad on purpose. They're really trash in this tourney  Cheesy
Seems like they're adjusting the odds now that I can't find any markets on that series. I'll still take them as long as the odds stay within even. Fnatic's roster won't go that far without iceiceice.

For now it's time to ride Faze's losing streak and go with Team Spirit, the map handicap looks like a value bet at 2.55 but i'm playing it safe since Team Spirit's last 4 matches all went to 3 maps. I guess Faze really want to have an early exit since there's a rumor about woxic going to Faze.

Fnatic to take one map is 1.6 and their win 5.8. Maybe I am crazy but somebody miscalculated those odds for sure, no matter the news. After I placed my bet odds dropped to 5.4 so low liquidity and betting on TNC probably influenced the odds significantly.
Yeah it should be the other way around, on sportsbet TNC to win the first and second map was like 1.55 pre live.

Good win on Furia, I didn't bet on their series but I was able to watch the series mid way in the first map and eventually stomping Liquid on both maps.

I've been eyeing this one since yesterday. TNC to win this bo2 series against Fnatic they're currently playing with a stand in as their offlaner skipped the tournament and they had a bad start already 0-0-2. TNC on the other hand doing alright currently 1-1-0 they 2-0'd New Esports which beat Fnatic 2-0 few days ago and drew 1-1 against BOOM.

Major changes in MIBR : TACO and fer and coach dead were dropped out of the team. Fallen disliked the decision and asked the organisation to bench him. They were struggling but didn't expected to drop such star players like TACO and fer.
