Well, I've bet on a few games myself, but it's been something along the lines of +0.9 value, assuming that you're using CSGOLounge.
ESports is just too risky, since there are fewer regulations in place for activities such as throwing, and players can easily have off days with no warning what-so-ever.
For those of you who HAVE made a profit, however, I congratulate you, since a majority of people I see are losing their bets as opposed to winning. Keep it up!
its about making a substantial long term profit, not +value over a few games. ive garnered enough to buy a bs asiimov from just selling small returns. I take just about every factor from off days to ddos when making a decision for these games.

Some stats since the creation of this thread (2/19) and some before:
|
|
|
Neat plugin that shows rosters and map for matches on lounge, as well as the ESEA picks: I don't think SKDC can take a bo1 nuke off C9, and odds arent good enough for me to bet on C9. All three of the ESEA matches are bo1 nuke.

|
results: got a nice return from that liquid v CLG
|
|
|
slept through a lot of the games
|
|
|
too drunk to update good night
|
|
|
some games popped up while I was sleeping
|
|
|
Picks for the new games: Bet on the overdogs for CLG v Affnity and Liquid v ASC, odds too low for me to bet. Also, there is speculation of GGWP v Exploders being a throw.. NOTE: Luminosity (LG) are former Mythic
|
|
|
No games for 2 days (GamePlan Pro League), managed to sell enough returns to buy a nice skin to bet with when the 7 day trade restriction is lifted, and an inventory update after selling some things

Tomorrow's EU bets: First game: xgame is check6 from earlier today, you may want to bet high on them but I have no information other than the roster for Divine. for all I know, they could all be wallhackers. No idea about exploders either. TSM v Wrecking is a bo1, same argument. I will be skipping every EU game tomorrow. If you like, you may want to bet high on TSM, but too much risk for me with an unknown team and not enough return with 90-10 odds. Will probably bet on the NA games that come up tomorrow. However, for anyone that likes to do a bit of their own analysis, don't think too much on ESEA matches if they conflict with other CEVO / FACEIT matches, ESEA cancels matches if a team is late and does not allow them to reschedule.

Apparently Ignite are sketchy
|
|
|
really expected s1mple and de_navi to pull through, unfortunate. nV still "saving strats"
|
|
|
EU bets for tomorrow:
|
|
|
Results of NA bets: denial v C9 was close, if they didnt get eco'd second round of second half I feel they mightve had a good chance
|
|
|
C9 v Denial is close, but Denial seem to e on track to take map 3 with a 4-3 lead on T side Inferno. Will start making picks for tomorrow's EU games. edit: C9 brought it back on a eco round, they look set to win
|
|
|
also won VP easy win when the Virtus.Plow picks mirage you dont bet against them. G_G EZ Picks for NA 2/25 NOTE: SKDC just lost their IGL, Ocean. former standin Virtus will be playing in his place. ASC has talent, they have a real shot at taking this game.

results of EU matches 2/15 the second mouz v penta match was intense, mouz bringing it back from an abysmal T first half on nuke. skipped first mouz v penta game, which swayed odds a lot and gave me bigger winnings on second game positive for the EU games
