I have 3 wins and 1 loss, Liquid vs Furia. This is my best start so far to a Multimaster promo tournament, hopefully it continues during the weekend.

So far more than 50 of us got 3 correct, it is crowded on the leaderboard I hope I picked my underdogs correctly, I chose only 3 of them in this round.

Good thing you were able to bet on this weekend's multi master. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do that. Darn, missed my opportunity.

Upon checking the leader board, the top spot got 8 wins already while the rest only got 7 and 6. If this continues, there will only be 1 person who'll take home that juicy 300 mBTC. Lucky guy!

Bloody hell, I missed it again too. Keep telling myself I'll make picks on Friday when I've had time to research (whatever that means, haha) but then I end up finishing work late and forgetting it all).

I scored 9 on the last one with 1 game cancelled, so I suppose it's "easier" in a way.

Lucky guy who keeps trying I guess!

You know what, we should be reminding each other. This is the nth time that I missed Multi-Master. 

And still, there's only 1 person the top spot upon checking the leader board. I believe he's also the 1st last time I checked (yesterday). Though I don't know how many games are still left to be played.

There were missing at least 2 games in your screenshot. There is 8 of us with 11 correct pics at the moment I really hope all games are counted since this will finally be the time I get something after so many times missing the reward cut by 1 wrong selection.

[cryptofrka]

I was one win from the top place for a while and then missed 3 out of the last 5 picks. Tough luck, will be better next time I hope.
Can't wait for sports games to return to Multimaster predictions, it's really hard to get these right. There aren't any draws so the chances are higher but it's tough to predict something you know nothing about.

Yep, I see it like this too. Hope you win

That changes quickly, I am now watching esports for about 4-6 weeks. This week was second time I picked all the games without doing any research at all. I was in a hurry and just picked teams that looked better to me lately. Last week was a total disappointment but this week looks good. I guess I am much better at CS:GO then LOL and DOTA2.

[buwaytress]

@Trofo, cryptofrka, so are you guys feeling any better at predicting these games doing all these eSports selections? I've done a few, but generally don't learn anything new from anyone, the names are still unfamiliar to me too.

4/1 upsets happen about once every four times from what I could watch anyway. So the odds do seem to be "martingale-able". Agree?

Nope, I'm still clueless. I tried watching a game or 2, it just isn't fun to watch to me. I play a lot of video games but have never had any interest in LoL or DOTA and even the games I play are boring when I watch other people play.
I'm still picking these at random, at some point I tried picking the outsiders but without much success.

I guess that eSports just isn't for me so I'll lose a few satoshis on Multimasters but other than that, I'm taking a gambling break until sport returns.

I watched RTS gaming when I was much younger (that's almost 2 decades ago) and I couldn't understand the attraction of *watching* then, so even today watching I totally don't get it. Gaming's all right for me but repetitive maps and plotless hacking and slashing seems to me just a question of who has the better gear, connection and fastest trigger finger so yeah, I guess you more or less confirm my bias;)

I learned a lot about CS and DOTA2. Now i already know the teams and have quite successful bets on handicaps against the favourites or over lines. There has been quite a lot of upsets and that works well for me.

When I say upsets I mean odds between 2-3, bigger upsets are rare and maybe not worth chasing.

Also keep in mind that Esports are much more fluid and prone to change. For example DOTA has implemented a patch in the middle of the game I was betting on. Basically, deciding game was played in whole different meta. This new patch gives much higher chance of reversing the games.

Also when things get back to normal and we have teams competing on site via LAN instead over the internet there should be less suprises.

Congrats for finally winning the multi-master, no more "one game short". 

Too bad that you have to share the prize with 7 other people but with only two outcomes we can choose from that's quite understandable. Last week we were 5 winners.

I finished with 9, which isn't too bad but could have been a lot better if two of my dogs (Dignitas and Top Esports) didn't choke after having decent leads in their respective games.

What the, I also missed my opportunity this weekend.  Anyways, thanks for the heads up.

Anyone here looking to bet on the upcoming UFC fights this coming Sunday? I'll provide free picks with write-ups if you want. 

[cryptofrka]

Oh s**t, totally forgot about it this week. Well, looking at my usual results, it's 0.1 mBTC saved anyway

Real sport games might be returning really soon, German Bundesliga is really close to restarting.

[morvillz7z]

When you think about it, this might be one of the last multi masters in its Esports edition that we get.

Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 returns next week, South Korean League, games from Belarus as well, Sportsbet can definitely put together 15 matches.

As for the current multi-master, after Friday and Saturday's games, we have somebody with 8 correct predictions sitting on top, that's one short of being perfect.  

I have 6 six so far, hoping for a 6/6 tomorrow to even stand a chance. How's everybody doing?

Good luck on the last stretch of the multi. My selections are pretty bad I rushed mine and picked all favorites except for one match (that lost as well) I currently have 4 wins out of the 9 settled matches.

I do hope we get a soccer edition of the multi master next week if possible just to get away from esports and maybe i'll get a better result in predicting soccer compared to online matches.

I had 1 out of the 2 correct going to saturdays matches. Coming out of those ones I had 5 correct.
By the end of competition had 7 out of the 15 predicted correctly.
Someone by the name of POG*** had 13 correctly guessed to be the sole winner of the prize this past weekend.

They should have one for the bundesliga matches this coming weekend because there sure are alot of them on que.

I'm trying so hard not to get my hopes up!

Perhaps it could be a mixture of both e-Sports and the bundesliga, the bundesliga predictions this week will probably be very tricky with all teams definitely likely to be out of shape. You could tell from the almost evenly distributed odds with the fixtures listed so far.

Everything is better than e-Sports Even if the Bundesliga teams are horribly out of shape, out of sync and whatever, it's still easier to predict than these computer games. I hope they fill up the MultiMaster with games from Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga only. Not that I would win the promo, but I at least would have more hopes to still be somehwat alive come Sunday^^
