Yes, those 3 teams are eliminated for sure. They can't advance to the playoffs anymore, no matter the outcome of their last matches. However, top 4 teams in each group are playing for the seed now and their matches vs teams that are already out matter, in a way. They need wins to catch that higher seed going into the playoffs. Higher seed means = "easier opponent" in the round 1 of playoffs (or opponent who did worse in this tournament, worse win - loss ratio).

[DOTA 2] Today is the last day of WePlay! Pushka League Season 1: Division 1 group stage. There are still 3 matches to be played. European group is already settled as 4 teams that are advancing on are already known, while in the CIS group, we still need to determined 4th team that will advance on.

Virtus Pro - Team Spirit: Virtus Pro -1.5, 1.55 @ BetOnBit
Nigma - Team Secret: Team Secret -1.5, 1.87 @ BetOnBit
OG - Ninjas in Pyjamas: Ninjas in Pyjamas, 1.91 @ BetOnBit

This match will be more like a show match rather than a really competitive match that will determine something. Team Secret has already secured their top 4 placement. On the other side Nigma fell short, as they are holding the bottom of the table with only 1 win out of 5 matches. They are looking terrible as they can’t find their gameplay and pace in this patch. Even if they win vs Team Secret, they won’t advance on. They don’t have a chance anymore to be in the playoffs, and it’s very questionable how both teams will approach this match. Team Secret again showed their dominance and with 4 wins and 1 loss they are holding 2nd place in the group. Team Liquid was the only team who managed to beat Secret in this tournament. However, if Team Secret wins this match they will jump to the 1st place in the group and they will have better seeding for the playoffs. Is this worth an effort from Team Secret? We will see. Surely, when we look at both teams and their performances during this group stage, we must admit, Nigma has no chance here.

These teams are in the same position like Nigma and Secret. OG disappointed us all in this tournament, as the 2x TI champions looked terrible and they are holding 5th place in their group with only 1 win. They have lost matches vs Secret, Liquid, Alliance and even their academy team OG.Seed. On the positive note they have managed to beat Nigma with 2-0, even though Nigma is looking like the worst team in this group right now. NiP (ex Chicken Fighters) have already secured their top 4 placement in the group, and with 3 wins and 2 losses they are firmly holding 4th place. NiP has secured playoffs, OG can’t advance anymore. So what will we watch? Hopefully some nice and fun Dota, without any pressure. NiP are looking really good, and I do think they surely have more motivation than OG. NiP has something to play for, as they want to show their new organization that they’ve deserved to defend NiP colors and banners. Odds on NiP are amazing and as OG is playing with 2 stand-ins in this whole tournament, I do believe NiP has a chance to take on OG and defeat them.

Is it certain that Spirit, Nigma, and OG will be eliminated? Since they're currently in the last 3 positions in their groups and even their scores are so far from the 4th position in their group.

So if it's true, then these matches are a bit more unpredictable because I'm not sure whether they will play seriously or just for fun.

I lost a chunk yesterday on Gambit Youngsters.

Onwards and upwards, just looking at todays games now.

VP vs Spirit

Nigma vs Team Secret

OG vs NiP

Nothing that lucrative, maybe some +1.5 action I guess.

This was absolutely a free bet. There is no reason for VP.P to win this match 

Unfortunately, B8 couldn't win any single game in this tournament and this must be very painful for them. They should've been in division 2.
Maybe we will see another retire retirement

Connectivity issues on xms.

Does anyone know what happened with Ninjas In Pyjamas vs Heretics?

It was 1:1 for quite some time and then i saw a message saying "abandoned". I suppose its something related to internet connection problems?

[DOTA 2] This will be the last day for some teams. And a final chance to grab their top 4 spot in their group. Yesterday I predicted everything right, let’s see what will happen on Tuesday at WePlay! Pushka League Season 1: Division 1.

Team Secret - Ninjas in Pyjamas: Ninjas in Pyjamas 1.5, 1.78 @ BetOnBit
Nigma - Alliance: Over 2.5, 1.94 @ BetOnBit
Virtus Pro - VP.Prodigy: Virtus Pro, 1.42 @ BetOnBit
B8 - flytomoon: flytomoon -1.5, 1.48 @ BetOnBit

First match of the day in Pushka League and it’s already a giver. Both teams are still fighting for top 4 placement in their EU group. Both teams have 3 wins and 1 loss. Team Secret got surprised by Team Liquid and they’ve managed to lose that match. OG managed to take a map off Secret too. OG, a team which is eliminated from the group already. The new NiP squad is looking really good, the ex Chicken Fighters squad are playing even better since they’ve joined NiP. They’ve shown amazing play vs Nigma and Liquid, and I do believe they can take a map off mighty Team Secret here. Amazing odds on handicap here.

Alliance is holding 1st place in the European group for now. With 4 wins and 1 loss they have looked really dominant in the previous matches, even if the scores were tight. The only match that they’ve dropped was vs Team Secret. On the other hand, Nigma is something that Team Liquid used to be in the ESL One LA Online tournament, a team that other teams are playing with. They have had disastrous performances and games in this tournament until now. They have only 1 win vs OG.Seed, and that was a close one (2-1). Alliance has already secured a top placement, and they might relax a little bit, where Nigma is waiting for their chance. They need this win, and they will do everything to take a map and to threat Alliance. This could go to 3 maps.

It surprised me how Virtus.Pro in this match are not such big favourites, according to the sportsbooks odds for this match. Their young academy team is doing pretty well and with 4 wins and 1 loss they have already secured their playoff spot. Virtus.Pro is sitting at 2 wins and 2 losses, but they still have a chance to advance on. This is a high risk match for betting, since partner teams within the same organization are playing each other and manipulation is possible. Virtus.Pro needs that playoff spot, and I doubt the organization behind Virtus.Pro will allow VP.Prodigy to humiliate their main team and take a playoff spot from them. Why would you have 1 team in the playoffs, when you can have 2?

B8 have nothing to play for here anymore, only their pride. They are 0-5 in the CIS group without a single map won. FlyToMoon are currently sitting in 5th place with 2 wins and 3 losses, but they still have a chance to advance. They need to beat B8, and their motivation should be high. They showed that they can beat much stronger teams like Spirit and VP.Prodigy, and I don’t see a reason why they wouldn’t beat B8 here. They will aim for 2-0 here, they need it to advance.

Thanks I did right too as in the end the £10 one won. Though Liquid gave it a damn good try against helraisers.

I watched the most games so far yesterday. Can I be getting addicted? sur am starting to understand it a bit better.

Im glad the VIP group is going well. Rand1919 is a cool guy.


Use his ref links if possible and he recommends betonbit.com for finding the same games as him

Great stuff Globb0. Those bets have really great value and both of them hit? Virtual high five! 


Hell yeah! We also got a great day in our VIP group. Really glad that both the tips here and from the VIP group cashed some tickets. Let's do this again tomorrow. 

GG guys. Another 100% win rate day.

3/3 Dota 2

✅ B8 - VP.Prodigy: VP.Prodigy -1.5
✅ Team Liquid - OG Seed: Team Liquid
✅ HellRaisers - Team Spirit: HellRaisers

How much do people think hellraisers can beat spirit? I can cash out £6.60 on the top bet or £7.22 on the bottom.

They both cant win ?  see post above


Or leave it and take whichever way it goes but less profit.

*edit* I cashed em both out. about 17 quid for 2 quid stakes and now I can just enjoy *edit*


As always thanks for getting me started with this stuff and thanks for the tips.

Joined the VIP picks and he is good with VIP picks as well. I have put my money on the line on 4 VIP picks out of which I lost only 1 on Dota event but hey its only day 1 , we still have one whole month left. Gotta admit he is very good with Dota 2 and CSGO predictions and analysis. GJ @rand1919

It would be great if he can share stats of his VIP picks here as well.

Hmm which one to keep? or both was a bit of a hedge. But its an extra fiver if I get it right (I mean if liquid won obv)

[DOTA 2] The last couple of days at WePlay! Pushka League Season 1: Division 1 have been really exciting. Teams are preparing for the last phase of the group stage play. In the last 3 days of the group stage we will find out exactly which 8 teams will advance to the playoffs.

B8 - VP.Prodigy: VP.Prodigy -1.5, 1.44 @ BetOnBit
Team Liquid - OG Seed: Team Liquid, 1.41 @ BetOnBit
HellRaisers - Team Spirit: HellRaisers, 1.41 @ BetOnBit

B8 are on a 14 games losing streak in all Dota competitions. The situation doesn’t look good for them, as they can’t find their pace and they are constantly switching and changing players. In the last few matches in this league, Skylark and SsaSpartan are playing positions 3 and 4 instead of Ghostik and KingR. They are trying various plays, looking for something that will work out, but sadly they haven’t found a successful tactic for now. In this league, they are holding last place in their group with 4 losses and 0 maps won. On the other side, VP.Prodigy is looking amazing lately and they have 3 wins and 1 loss in this league for now. They need 1 more win to secure their top 4 placement in the CIS group. This must be their win, they have beat a lot of stronger teams then B8. B8 is just not ready for tier 1 CIS competitions. This should be a 2-0 for VP.Prodigy.

Both OG.Seed and their parent team OG are locked down at the bottom of European group. OG.Seed has only 1 win and 4 losses, but interestingly enough they took maps off some amazing teams.They managed to take a map off Nigma, Alliance, NiP and they’ve even managed to beat even their main team OG. Impressive, but that win is questionable. Liquid are looking like a completely different team compared to their performance in ESL One: LA Online tournament, where they were demolished by almost all teams in the group. Here, they are looking really solid, decent plays, rotations and pick / ban phase. They are on the brink of securing their top 4 position in the EU group and taking their playoff spot. With 3 wins, and 2 losses they are surely a big threat to OG.Seed. They are playing way better, and Liquid ML should be a safe bet here.

HellRaisers have already secured their top 4 spot in the group and playoffs as well. What does that mean for their match vs Team Spirit? Even if Team Spirit is on the bottom of the table with 1 win and 3 losses, they still have 2 matches to go and there is a chance for them to qualify. They must win all upcoming matches to do that. Will HellRaisers relax a little bit and put their guard down because they already qualified for the playoffs? That’s the real question. HellRaisers only lost to VP.Prodigy, but they’ve beat their parent team Virtus.Pro. Impressive, I must say. Team Spirit won only against B8, and they took maps off NaVi and FlyToMoon. I’m not sure that’s enough to beat HellRaisers. HellRaisers should be a good bet here, if you find a good odds.

Safe bets today.

In DOTA2, there's also a meme that goes with "322" and this also pertains to match-fixing. This happened few years back so yeah, match-fixing activities are very rampant even in Esports. There are numerous counts of arrests because of this illegal activity. The so-called professional players like them are not professional at all. 

Five men from Australia face corruption charges over alleged match-fixing.
