The only thing I can think of is this track is brand new to all drivers as F1 is making a return back to Las Vegas.
So this race there can be won by anyone because no driver has any experience on it and they have to learn the turns and the zones where they can gain any advantage during the course of the race.

What a ""turn"" is the 13º hahaha, man is gonna be a very very long straight, so some teams with good top speed are gonna be a headache. I can see Alpine with amazing top speeds or Williams being a problem for the big teams in that straight. DRS is gonna be very important, but i dont know how the teams are gonna set the cars.
Yes, I only noticed it when you mentioned it actually!
That straight away is the entire length of the entire track so it will be fun to watch which cars will have the most power so to turn into a shuttle and see how fast their engines can go!

G2 Esports had removed their team from the CS Asia Championships tournament which has already started today:
"G2 have pulled out of the CS Asia Championships, the organizers of the $500,000 tournament taking place in Shanghai, China on November 8-12 have announced."
source: https://www.hltv.org/news/37351/g2-pull-out-of-cs-asia-championships

According to the article the team is undergoing a rebuilding process the same as Team Liquid had also stated was the reason for their absence of the tournament in Shanghai.
Lynn Vision is currently going up against Tyloo who I am familiar with in this region of CounterStrike play.

I got a free bet from the clubhouse rewards and i'll be using it on the BTTS and o8.5 corner combo for the Newcastle vs Dortmund match. There's no way Newcastle would sit still after losing at home a few weeks back.

I also liked the Barcelona MOTD and thought it should hit when they've been winning every match, but i'm starting to think Shakhtar has a better chance of getting something out of this match after keeping it close in their last meeting.
Impossible as it may sound but both these matches went in opposite directions as many thought it would. Well maybe not for the Dortmund game since they were favorites going into it without a loss in the tournament so far.
Don't think Newcastle scored in the match as I was watching the Shakhtar one instead just before they scored the second goal to put Barcelona away.

I also liked the Barcelona MOTD and thought it should hit when they've been winning every match, but i'm starting to think Shakhtar has a better chance of getting something out of this match after keeping it close in their last meeting.
That one has potential for sure but the odds sucks at exacly 2.0. If only they give atleast 2.4 then I would have taken that for sure. Rather than taking this special, I guess I might just go with either both team to score at this match and Barcelona to win or rather taking this abit risky by taking Barcelona to win by half time seems like a more reasonable bet compared to MOTD
Should of taken Shakhtar instead @21x am I right?
Just kidding. I don't think anybody would of thought Donetsk blanking Barca in that match especially with Lewandowski on the pitch.
Think I seen him still on there during the 86th minute of play so he might have been on there for the entire match.
Some real surprises during these Champions league games.

Yes, heard about this fight being scheduled between Suga Show and Chito Vera.
But also heard about one which will be closer for us during UFC 297 which was announced recently.
Dricus Du Plessis vs Sean Strickland.

This one seems to be what everybody wants to see with the championship title on the line between these two UFC fighters who I don't think will disappoint when they face off in the octagon.

Qualify was ruined by the rain but once again Max got the position.

this time he got it because it was the 1st running, he always makes the correct decision.
Betting against him is a mistake. Had Hamilton doing something on this track but he didn't get even a podium place.
Alonso looked like a brand new driver with his performance in getting second place and defending it in the very last seconds of the race to pull out another podium place just like he did at the beginning of the season.
Even Stroll managed to get some points for Aston Martin.

The worst was Ferrari with their first driver Leclerc having issues even before the race started.
It was during the formation lap!

It seems he has the worst luck with his car and his team this entire season.

Good bet on the Bengals as Burrows was due for an impressive win against the Bills and doing it on home field was icing on the cake.

Chargers just destroyed the Jets in the MNF match last night. Didn't watch it but from the score 37-6 it was a one-sided affair.

The biggest news from the weekend was the rookie quarterback CJ Stroud with 5 touchdowns beating the buccs.

With the first string quarterbacks going down like flies lately this is a nice bit of news coming out of week 9.

The Sportsbet Specials are all about the match against Newcastle vs Borussia Dortmund being included in the ClubhouseTV section.
I would rather put something on this one than Shakhtar vs Barcelona with the odds the way they are.

https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/matches/today

The Tottenham special yesterday was looking good until the referee began taking the goal by Son away. Then it went downhill from there.
Hot Spurs received a second red card later in the half and were playing with 9 players on the pitch.
Hopefully that doesn't happen in this Champions league match today.

Shockingly Nicolas Dalby beat Gabriel Bonfim to be the first to beat the 15 wins and tarnish his flawless record.
Can't believe he lost and from the odds @owengtam09 posted on him, neither did anybody else.

Saw somebody actually put a sizeable amount on an Almeida win by decision @20.00x and that did go the full five rounds with Jailton winning.
There were several opportunities for him to finish Lewis with so much groundtime by the end of the fight you would think he could of submitted or ground and pound him to an early win but it wasn't going to happening.

I think the majority of the Brazilian fighters won for this fight night as I only had to time to watch about three bouts in the main event.

Caio Borralho against Abus where the current champion Strickland started his run to the title was a nice win and the post fight interview in the octagon was a highlight of the night. Never heard of his affiliation to this camp before:

What can you say guys with the revelation of Taiga just after/during the TI finals? He became addicted and lost more than his entire career earnings due to his gambling addiction.

Taiga Opens Up About His Gambling Addiction

Based on https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Taiga his total career earnings is close to $650,000 and with that revelation from him, that he has lost more than that amount.

What a guy, it's sad that he's got into gambling addiction although he said that he's aware of the inflictions of it.

I guess that he has seen the light and now doing his best to change, I hope that he goes to a good team this upcoming season.
Wow! Didn't realize a professional player in DOTA2 had such a problem with an addiction to gambling.
Usually you hear about them being addicted to the game since the lifestyle of an esports player basically makes them this way.
In living and breathing in the sport from when they get up in the morning until they go to sleep at night.
Especially in South Korea.
Reminded me to this video of having conformity to such lifestyle changes inorder to become a pro esports player (TSM):

Q3 was quite different than I expected after watching Q1 and Q2. Because Stroll - Alonso duo did a really good work in Q3 but luck was on their side at the same time. Because the weather got really bad and there was a red flag out while there were still 4-5 minutes to go for the end of the session. Norris (7th), Sainz (8th) and Perez (9th) all could have had a better position than this considering their effort. Especially Norris could have fought for pole position as his lap times were really impressive.
We all saw that rain is coming, but probably nobody didn't expected such big weather changes. These rain clouds were so dark that just after few minutes it looked like night almost. And it wasn't just rain, but heavy wind too. It's good that drivers managed to complete one fast lap during Q3 (except Piastri who made mistake). Otherwise we probably would have to wait long time until weather conditions will improve. It's logical decision that session won't be resumed.
It's a bit strange to see both Aston Martin on 2nd row, but they got lucky a bit.
This image looks like taken from apocalyptic movie.

Never seen scenes like that during an F1 race even if it was at the end of qualifying (Q3) and it was the correct call to make in stopping it with 4:19 left to go in the session.

Had Max to be on pole today so good they stopped it there.
Have Hamilton to win today and get fastest lap so we will see how it goes in the next two hours when the final race begins.

The ones which looked really good with how their cars are handling during the sprint race are Norris and Russell.
Can't see the Ferrari cars getting anything higher than P5 or P6 from the way the other cars are performing on the track.
A few of them went off track. Piastri and Stroll from what I remember of the sprint races yesterday.

First game of the weekend started early!
Kansas City Chiefs are in the early part of the first quarter against the Miami Dolphins.
The more surprising thing is they are leading by a touchdown!

The rest of the Sunday early games are at their regular time in about 3 hours from now with the following markets:

Do you have any early picks for tomorrow's games?

How do you see the Dallas vs. Nuggets matchup? Dallas is the underdog on the road, getting +6.5 points, and they are still undefeated. Could this be a trap, or can we trust Kyrie and Luka to beat Jokic and the Nuggets?

Additionally, is it a good idea to bet on the Knicks against the inconsistent Bucks?
Nuggets lost the last match so i think they will look into this match and try and bounce back with a win. I think it can be a close match but i would play both Doncic and Jokic over points. Jokic is dominating pretty well and the line for him isnt something really big. Also i think Nuggets will take the win here.
Was looking for some props to put together on a betslip and was wanting to place a bet on the Nuggets against the Mavericks so these ones look like the best ones to take.
Especially with the lost against the Timberwolves the other night we can expect Jokic to want to immediately bounce back with a stellar performance. So it might as well be this one with Dallas being unbeaten so far in the season. Doncic won't just sit back and let them do it without a fight.

The Milwaukee Bucks game is a difficult one to decide on a winner since they haven't been doing so good from that first game where Lillard scored 30+pts and was on fire.
But ever since then they have really dropped off only beating the heat and the 76ers which have had problems with their starting lineups. They are already playing the Knicks so will have to see if they can beat a half decent team with what they have to work with.
