Sportsbet.io Betting discussion thread rev

Yeah morvillz7z, cs:go matches and any esports for that matter do get graded slower than regular sports.
I remember betting on another site where it would take between 15-25 minutes before the winning betslips were graded (they said could take up to 45 minutes sometimes but for only on the esports bets  ) because of the oddsprovider doing the grading and this particular site could not grade the tickets themselves.
I was not sure if it was because of the different sites who gave the results were not updating properly or they just preferred to make their customers wait.
Have since left that site and havent regretted doing so since.
While other sites such as sportsbet and another one I have been using for my esports betting lately have drastically improved upon the speed of grading of these esport markets since then.

Nice one with nailing with two underdogs. I on other hand , lost both the selections. I though saw 100 Thieves vs Team SoloMid one and they really went rushing into Solo Mid's line and swiped them all away. Great win from them and they truly deserve it.

5 matches to go.. 3 upsets already for me now and I am also sitting with 7 correct picks. On the leaderboard, I can easily identify two players from top 4 who are from bitcointalk.

[rohang]

Before the 11th game on the schedule between Dignitas and Immortals, i have 7 correct picks.

It could have been better if it wasn't for 100 Thieves miraculous comeback win over Solomid.

TSM had the a big lead from the get-go, the live odds minutes before the end of the game were 1.05 in their favor, but they lost. wtf

At least FlyQuest picked up a win for me as my second dog (pre-match odds @2.00).

The leaderboard is updating so slow though, we might not get the winner's name until tuesday, guess grading LoL bets takes time.

what was your pick on dignitas immortals?

[cryptofrka]

I guess favorites lose a lot in eSports

I picked 14 favorites and 1 upset, started with 3/3 wins the first day but everything went sideways after that. I think I already have 4 or 5 wrong picks.

Is anyone watching that? Watching people play video games sounds really boring but considering there are simply no alternatives I might give it a go. What would you recommend?

I also made picks in same way. 14 favs and 1 underdog. I nailed the underdog one but I have lost 4 favourite picks till now. And BTW there is still 4 left to play. Right now, I guess swogerino is up there on leaderboard with 6 picks correct. I have 5 correct in that leaderboard but in actual have 7 correct picks right now.

If you love a little bit of under dog then I think you should try but I would suggest starting with very low stakes that doesn't matters you much even if you lose. Also you have to watch their plays to get a hang of the team and the quality they play.

I am cutting on my sleep to watch the ECS Pro league at night right now. So far I am doing quite well.....but *yawn*... too much to invest (incl. time).

[tyKiwanuka]

Same here. I have no idea about esports and just clicked some favourites and mixed some dogs in, whose names I liked The Leaderboard not updating correctly is annoying though, takes a lot of fun away. It was the same for the football Multi Masters. You never know, where you really stand and which games are already included - can't be that hard to always keep it up to date.

[morvillz7z]

what was your pick on dignitas immortals?

Dignitas were my 3rd dog, i've backed two more today, we'll see...currently sitting at 8 and 3.  Anyone with 8 9?

edit; kt rolster was another upset that i got correct, they just beat afreeca freecs 2-1. Hell yeah!!!

Agree, i think that's something they should work and improve on.

My anxiety levels are through the roof when i know i have more correct picks than they've marked on the leaderboard.

Most of them did last week in the esl tournament 11 going on now.
Such as one match I bet on had the favorites at 1.07x but the other team won at 7.00x so it really is a toss up if a team is on fire and the better ones are having a lousy run of things.

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Before the 11th game on the schedule between Dignitas and Immortals, i have 7 correct picks.

So just checked the results and it's not good anymore for me, 6 correct pick out of 12 finished games 🤣

mousesports came back after being down 0:1 to win 2:1 against FaZe Clan, they were also down in the 3rd map 12:10 but won 16:12.

Yesterday, I was watching this game and somehow I managed to understand that FaZe Clan were ahead and Looking at the record I was sure that they were going to win. Today I did not bother to watch any games yet but updating the results from my sportsbet betslip.

[tbterryboy]

@BitcoinGirl.Club  i'm watching Mouse vs Faze and for some odd reason, the stream quality is much smoother/better if i watch it from the website that you posted than from the actual Twitch website...weird. So, thank you so very much for the links 

Does anyone know how long is a competitive CS:GO match?

You can find a ton of esports topics here but bitcointalk people are not really a lot keen on esports that much, same goes for poker as well (both of which sportsbet has lol) so I think it would basically be a lot better if you could research stuff or at least be a part of the discussion in some other places. Look at reddit for example, during a cs:go match going on if you check the subreddit there is a topic with it and there is like thousands of people talking about just that much, we do not have thousands of people talking about the whole esports world here, well we do not even have thousands of people talking about bitcoin here neither but you get the point. Looking specifically to those games subreddits would get you a lot more information and discussion than you can ever get here.

I bet most of us even would not be interested if we had regular time like football and other sports. Since there are nothing much to get entertained so most of us are trying to find something from these games. I never played these sorts of game, never had interest actually. I have seen my mates, my nephews staying online hours after hours and talk to their mates while they are playing but all seemed to me very childish. But it seems this games industry is a billion dollar industry and there is a big sports fan base after doing some research in the last few days.

Talking about poker, a week ago I had no idea about it but now I guess I got a good hand in it.

I have just finish picking up my winners. Gone with all favorites except two who had very similar odd so I had to toss it LOL



PS: I hope this boring time ends soon and we go back to real spots.

[Trofo]

^I just did my picks as well. I went with quite a few surprises. So total opposite from your strategy. We shall see which strategy will prove better in the end. I like our odds of getting the top prize since there isn't a draw possibility in this matches but then most of us don't know shit about esports so who knows.

I seriously have zero knowledge. I think Aviruns have some knowledge about this sports if I am not wrong. Who else has some decent idea? May be shearing some insight will help to those who will make their picks later.

We have very few members those have some good information about this all because I check we have nothing serious talk but some time ago when I was active on a betting site chat there was very good number of members with good knowledge about this all but right now not sure are they available or no.

Havent been watching every esports tournament being played and their respective leagues but I have been wagering on cs: go for a while now.
Resulting with some knowledge of when the underdogs are on a roll to win their next match during a tournament.
As with this one which I won about three hours ago.

I'll put in my next set of bets on sportsbet since they have put together a stellar mutimaster challenge which is very hard to pass up!

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Winning a 14+ double bet needs big luck. My question is, how confident you were at the time of placing the bet or it was just a random pick chasing the odd. I chase the odd a lot of time LOL

Anyway, you are having a good day. Congratulations!

Esports are very good for odd chasing. I started betting on them maybe 10 days ago and I already hit a lot of odds in range 2-4 and few really good ones like 7.5. I am talking about single games odds here not multibet tickets. My favorite game is CS:GO as well, since I have a feeling current form has biggest influence here.

I don't have that much knowledge but yeah I kinda keep some tabs on CS teams. Apart from CS I don't know anything about other eSport fields.

I will drop my bet later maybe. Gotta spend time researching for now. Did anyone from here won the earlier round. As I last heard I think morvillz was the one closest and I think ialso saw swogerino being the closest one in leaderboard.
