Man, what a bummer, i guess i was the only one backing Heroic here, again couldn't watch shit cuz it was overlapping with our poker series.
you didn't miss much, just VIT getting outclassed in spectacular fashion  Cheesy Heroic were simply the better team, they looked like they were play their 10th consecutive final

fun fact: before the final, cadiaN promised a p90 rush https://twitter.com/caspercadiaN/status/1300008975824375808 and it happened on Nuke!! 🤣🤣

winning mentality right there, just having fun in a S-tier tournament final =P

i'm gonna go with Vitality ML
Same, Vitality all the way to win the grand finals. This series feels like Vitality's game to lose since Heroic looked shaky against G2 the comeback they did on Vertigo was amazing but i'm not sure if they have what it takes to beat another french team that's better than G2.

LCS playoffs continues today, Team liquid - FlyQuest...this is hard to predict, especially after seeing Cloud9 getting destroyed yesterday, i feel like anything can happen today, but i'm gonna start off with O19.5 kills Map 1 at 1.71 odds
I also wasn't expecting C9 to go down like that against TSM. With both teams already qualified for worlds picking a team to win is like a coinflip at this point since they're only fighting for the higher seed and the same thing happened in the LEC as Fnatic took down G2 yesterday.

Any early thoughts on the match tomorrow, perhaps O3.5 since it's bo5?
terribles odds unless you go for Under. map handicap, same story, awful odds, i'm gonna go with Vitality ML and then i'll try some live betting (total rounds)

Second game I chose is for Espada to take a map @1.6 against Mad Lions. Looking at the map pools this should be a no brainier and this is my high stake bet for today.

Good luck to all and hopefully we will manage to take some money from the bookies.

That's interesting Trofo, I left out Mad Lions because they can be unreliable.

I just looked and +1.5 they are 1/2

If Im not mistaken, over 2.5 Maps is the same bet? that is 10/11
Not really I actually took Espada 1.5. I should have wrote Espada takes at least 1 map Smiley
My bet is winning if Espada wins 2:0, yours is not.


*edit* just missed you at the poker table I was waiting and got your chair.   Smiley
I was just earning some krill (360+ now) and then lost badly, but i managed to turn 5k chips into 10 this morning so this gets me back to equilibrium for the day. Now no more poker for me until our tournament Smiley

Not so much games today but I found 2 that I really like for today. Vitality is playing really well and I feel like they will manage to prevail against Heroic today. Heroic was also very good lately but I am hoping for ZywOo to make the difference once again.

Oh god another horrible day for me yesterday. Got some evening stuff on to counter the day.

The usual one of my "sure thing" teams lost and destroyed several promising parlays.


Today there seems to be less to chose from.

Here is my selection to get going today

Astralis further extended my losing streak (5L in a row)
my 1st ticket: G2 - Heroic O2.5 map

Congrats! Streak officially over, G2 and Heroic with one hell of a match, too bad i couldn't watch it, with multiple OTs on vertigo and one on nuke. Heroic got their little revenge on G2 though, i'm glad to see the Danes make the grand final. They as a team don't have that many prestigious rankings, a bunch of 3rd places according to hltv.

Three-game win streak come to an end for NiP, but great tournament overall. Vitality are just the better team imo, final round with a bunch of glocks to secure the win, class!

My early bet for tomorrow's ESL semis: Heroic/G2 O2.5 + Vitality ML total odds 3.16

Sorry bookies, not today! Grin

Do you think NiP can pull another upset in tomorrow's semi-final? I'm not sure how many points are given for 1st place (should be plenty), i'm low key rooting for Vitality to win the tournament and overtake BiG in the overall rankings as #1.

NIP have the ability to do it. They have really good team play and coordination among themselves. Vitality seems kinda okish right now but NIP have certainly improved their plays. They are analysing their opponents and they know what kind of strategy opponent gonna put at what point so unless Vitality have something new strategy or a change in roles to surprise them I think match is gonna be really nail biting one.

Speaking of nail-bitinh match , right now who is watching Heroic vs G2 ? This is also going great so far. 1st match has gone into extra rounds and it's 24-23 with Heroic leading. Epic semifinals...guess I have to take my popcorn out that I saved for Vitality vs Nip already now.  Cheesy Cheesy

I'm starting to believe in NiP's momentum since every time I go against them they always show up. I want to take Vitality in this series as well but after getting destroyed by NiP three in a row i'll probably just watch mid game and place a live bet.


and helluva match in the LEC playoffs: Fnatic - G2...G2 -1.5 at 1.71 odds is good value...though i might try some live bets here, been improving my LoL live betting skills lately, specifically in total kills (:
Also going for G2's handicap later I think the series could end 3-0 for G2 or 3-1 at the very least.

Finally! I've updated the Calendar in the OP. Check out the upcoming tournaments in csgo, dota, lol and starcraft!

I lost over 20 quid on astralis, Lucky I got a hedge on Nip Results, still landed a tenner.
Astralis further extended my losing streak (5L in a row: 1 in Dota, 1 in the LPL final, 2 thx to Complexity the other day, and now Astralis getting rekt 😔)

but no time to cry, we have some games today...my 1st ticket: G2 - Heroic O2.5 maps https://i.ibb.co/JpMh3rp/gibmeawin.png big question is: will G2 ban Nuke? it's the only map they've lost to Heroic in the last few months, i have a feeling they won't, but if they ban it, Mirage could be Heroic's pick which isn't a good map for the french...either way, i think we'll see the same old story between these teams, 3 maps

and helluva match in the LEC playoffs: Fnatic - G2...G2 -1.5 at 1.71 odds is good value...though i might try some live bets here, been improving my LoL live betting skills lately, specifically in total kills (:  edit* (the tournament of surprises, at least i won my ticket!)

And for the second series we've got Astralis that's slowly going back to their old ways while NiP capitalized on their opponents having a bad day. 
now I still need Astralis and some football to come trough.
Im down to needing Astralis to win for good money.

FUCK  Grin

I think anyone with cs:go tickets today have added Astralis' ML, including me, i went as far as taking Astralis -1.5 in separate bet. Seriously i did not see that coming. At least Avirunes got something off that match backing NiP 1.5

Do you think NiP can pull another upset in tomorrow's semi-final? I'm not sure how many points are given for 1st place (should be plenty), i'm low key rooting for Vitality to win the tournament and overtake BiG in the overall rankings as #1.

My early bet for tomorrow's ESL semis: Heroic/G2 O2.5 + Vitality ML total odds 3.16

So next up tomorrow we have semifinals ESL Cologne  Cool : Heroic vs G2 and NIP vs Vitality. NIP vs Vitality is so fun to watch. Vitality have better rank right now but IMO they both are equal on play level. I feel like that match is gonna go over 2.5 maps.

I managed a bit of a hedge on the NiP outcomes as I have about 20 on if they lose.
