@morvillz7z  you've been backing Izako Boars during the off season, haven't you? who would've thought polish boars were so good at CSGO?  Grin

I missed almost all the games of Nine to Five, but there's still one more, and it's prolly the highlight of the day: Gambit Youngsters - LDCL +1.5 @1.61

A rematch of the Malta Vibes Cup final (exactly 24h later). I'm expecting kind of a similar performance, Gambit less motivated since this isn't a final fck LDLC!  Lips sealed

I finished 3-5 on the week, CR4ZY let me down today, i had their match O2.5 but they lost in 2 maps without much of a fight, disappointing.



Same here and that was the only bet of the day, don't know what happened to them. I had the 4 other results as a win. Shame.




If Im watching and the wrong team goes a bit behind Im getting another small bet on.

They are good value bets, and because these games flop around a few times. Ive sometimes managed to be in a position I don't even mind who wins ive got both ways good.

I don't know if anyone here watches Overwatch League on Youtube but damn, Justice jut got a win against Houston Outlaws with a total odd of 4.20 and I was inspired to take it with 2$ risky bet haha. Last night I was unlucky and I got mad a little as Gladiators had 2 0 againt Fusion and then lost 2 3... . In my opinion if you play Overwatch, this is one of the most easiest picks you could take knowing the heroes and the maps.

Will try to get better results next week. My Nine to Five 2 picks:

Izako Boars 1.5 + AVEZ ml total odds 1.80

SG.pro vs Izako Boars both team are struggling to get good results, played each other last month (Boars won 2-0), they should be good for at least one map.
AVEZ vs lvlUP  AVEZ are the better team imo, ranked higher with better current form.

Illuminar ml + Excellency ml total odds 1.92

Illuminar vs Tikitakan Tikitakan are unranked team but should not be underestimated, have good results beating ranked teams. They could absolutely steal a map, not sure if they can win.
selectah vs Excellency I couldn't find any information/recent matches anything about selectah, the team is a complete mystery...

I wasn't planning on placing any bets today since i'm full with soccer, but then i saw @Globb0 post and well, i couldn't help it  Roll Eyes

3 fold: Triumph -1.5 + Dignitas - Evil Geniuses U23.5 total kills + Cloud 9 total odds: 3.20

watching Gambit YNG vs Syman right now, the former is looking pretty good in map 1, looks like it's gonna be a clean 2-0 for them (?) there's a guy on Syman with less than 30 ADR after 22 rounds, yikes!

Well I went a bit mad last night but I had a plan and I cleaned up with it a bit.

FATE beat AGF in the grand final at CSGOFAST in 3 maps, and Syman topped AVEZ in the Malta Vibes 1/4 finals again in 3 maps. I was fortunate enough to have both games O2.5 and get really good odds. I will try to share/post my predictions in time tomorrow, Malta Vibes semis and final is what i'm focused on.

Slightly off-topic, a Canadian female's csgo team goes by the name of "That's what she said" Grin

Flipping bet 365 the game playing wasn't the one I bet on. They played a CSGO match but the bets were for this dota game!   fs

Never mind, as I said watching for a hedge (ehome win round 2 I think) I recovered all my stakes.



Now I am on this, but I keep doubling down when the odds get good.

Not a huge amount on again today.


Im backing this,



Watching the games and keeping my eye out for a juicy (but cheap) hedge
this is one way to get excitement and fun watching in bet team. This is dota2 though I love this game so much but I had not been following any tournament now and not really familiar with the new teams. I need to catch up with the current eventa so that I could possibly bet also in the future. It is good to bet not likely with that high amount just a good bet for snacks or a meal that would be definitely fine for me.

@Globb0  surprised you didn't include any csgo matches today

COL about to teach a thing or two to these low tier teams
What is complexity doing there? They will be given super ugly odds (almost unplayable)...i have AVEZ and Gambit Youngsters as my dark horses.
They're one of the many teams invited to this tournament. Check out the other teams: https://liquipedia.net/counterstrike/Relog_Media/Nine_to_Five/2

And yeah, odds will be awful for sure, but to be honest, Complexity had a one-month break, while these low tier teams have been playing on the regular, you never know  Roll Eyes

I'm also taking FATE against SJ Gaming

Congrats to both of us, in all fairness it was a very close match. Announcers said before the start, that this might be the game of the tournament and i agree the overall rankings do not do justice.
I also ended up taking AGF spread, decent odds vs unranked team, no bs and fairly easy win for them.

COL about to teach a thing or two to these low tier teams  Grin i'll keep an eye on CR4ZY and aTTaX, pleasant surprises in this csgo off season

What do you think of interface change hltv did to their 'matches' section? I don't like it at all...slightly confusing at first look.
Trash. It's gonna take some time to get used to it. At least the main filters like "Top Tier" are right there

the match page looks compressed
does it look like they added more ads? everything looking smaller and compressed like you say makes me think they wanted to fit as much ads as possible  Roll Eyes i can't tell cos i have a bunch of add-ons on FF which block ads and all that crap

Trying to get at least one winning ticket this week with FATE ml + AGF ml total odds just over 2.00

both semifinals from CSGOFAST Cup 5:

FATE vs SJ Gaming, FATE are ranked #38 whereas their opponent #135, map pool favors FATE
I'm also taking FATE against SJ Gaming, the rankings is slightly is misleading for FATE but they should have enough firepower to take the win.

I agree it's confusing, the match page looks compressed they should remove those featured stuff on the side or at least put it somewhere else since there's enough news posted on the homepage.

AGF vs Berzerk, Berzerk are that same unranked team that beat Nexus a few days ago, they advanced to the semifinals after their opponent in the quarterfinals (HONORIS) had to forfeit the game because having another match at the same time. Grin The odds for AGF -1.5 are nice but i don't trust them, so playing it safe and only betting on the moneyline here.

yeah you are right. Good news is they are both wins so that's pays all.

Here is an interesting one I did, maybe 6 fold was too much  Smiley   but 3 pushes  (I think it was explained to me as a draw when it was a 2 market bet ie win lose) Pact lost anyway, but still

Doing a small parlay on the Eden Arena Malta Vibes tournament

Cr4zy and AVEZ to win for 2.00~ combined odds, it's only bo1 so the odds aren't that bad.

Also stake just launched an interesting promo for LPL.  




I guess I'll just follow you on this one, I have no idea about these teams, but FortuneJack has given 5 mBTc freebet on Esports.

EDIT: Both matches aren't available on FortuneJack any more, I guess they've commenced already.

Wanted to play the same this morning but overslept PSG game. Good thing I did since they lost 2:0. Really didn't expect that.
EHOME with the upset!! But at least PSG.LGD bounced back and beat Royal Never Give Up in the lower bracket

anywho, as @hanspeter77 says, Week 6 of LEC starts tomorrow, so it's time for some League action and early picks (singles):
- G2 - Schalke 04 Under 25.5 total kills at 1.67 odds (Schalke are the worst team in the LEC rn and this pick was correct in 7/11 of their matches)
- SK Gaming ML at 1.66 odds

@ralle14, @Globb0,  GL!
