CS:GO and Betting

[bearexin]

It would be better to do some research about the esports of cs-go and what maps do they prefer and what maps that they have the most upper percentage of winnings. You can check them here in https://www.hltv.org/
in which it will help you to decide what team are better right now. And I am still looking for the improvement of s1mple of Na'vi every clutch game that he is doing.

Perfect suggestion.

An additional tip is to watch highlights or replays from these players or teams that you prefer to have an idea for every match they'll have.

Also compare how your team's recent performance has been and that also can be checked from hltv.org while keep an eye on the news section because there are great news and some shocking ones for example I read there that bubzki the best player in the entire Mad Lions roster was benched after their poor team performance and a mad Lions team without Bubzki is certain to loose more matches in the future.

You can also check which maps are being picked and how heavily T or CT sided those maps are because your team might be 10-5 down after 1st map yet come on top because of the nature of the Map, for example a team getting 12-3 behind on T side on Nuke but they can easily come back with CT side.

I have not heard of anything yet for CS and other online games as far as betting using bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies are concerned. I mean online games are already a long time development and we see not betting but rather straight forwards competitions between groups of people wherein, the loser will always be the one paying the winner with cash bets or value goods. I think there might be localized bets happening but not the large one where it cross cities or states. I am not sure though, maybe there are.

Did you mean the bet in bitcoin or the blockchain system itself?

Yes, that is what I mean by that. I am not really into researching things. All I base my current knowledge is really based on the things I hear and read and really I do not want to research deep into a certain topic. And so far I have not heard of bitcoin or crypto based betting for online games such as Counterstrike Go and even the famous ones like DOTA 2 and Fortnite and League of Legends. I was able to see how local betting works, but that's in basketball especially the numbers game. It takes a lot of work to do those kinds of things. So I think it will be a challenge to organize online games betting.

I saw there are sites that accept bets in bitcoins, but whether they work on the blockchain platform is the question.

It seems to me that an honest player in this market of services has not yet appeared to be fully regulated and transparent for the user. It is simply unprofitable for them.

If you are talking about websites that accept Counter Strike betting than I can suggest you a few :

1- Sportsbet.io
2- Stake.com
3- cloudbet.com

You may find more but these are the top 3 websites that offer csgo betting and also offer in-play odds in real time which is very interesting since you see how a team is doing on map 1 and based on that you can make best on the team to win other maps. Although keep in mind that some teams are good on some maps and look terrible on others.

I looked at the sites, but did not understand on what platform it are made. Blockchain?

Try Herosphere which is based on a ETH token they designed themselves.   If you are studying something properity then thats about the best example I can think of.   
  The problem I find they might have is its overally customised if anything, you must pick out indivual players to make that bet where as the majority of traffic for esports betting is people simply supporting one team over another.   Some people literally just want to bet Navi every time or Astralis I guess makes sense on their usual form for csgo.   Never a great idea to over complicate a product.

CS:GO Betting is very Risky it give so much Player Transfer, and from many you don’t notice anything.
By the corona virus has played many tournaments from home. This gave real outsiders the chance to make it big because they are in their familiar surroundings. and not in large halls with lots of people.
There are 1-3 teams that can be said to always be good.

I agree, CSGO being played online is completely different from a huge LAN setting where you have an audience and everyone is watch you. The stress levels must be so much higher sitting in the cubicles with cameras all around, playing on standard PCs, etc. For betting it's the same, it seems much riskier to bet on the favourite team in an online setting than an onsite tournament.
But for me CSGO betting is a nice way to turn smaller skins into something bigger. Just don't bet anything big.

The pressure is intensive in LAN games for CSGO players. Even not only for the CSGO players but for every esports games that we have. There is a big difference playing online and LAN because in online, you can be relax as no one watches you live although there are audiences through live streaming and casts of the games. But forget about LAN games, every LAN game tournament has been stopped because of the pandemic.

Generally the gameplay and results are more consistent on LAN games then online.    Online leads to more surprises, the actual netcode and location of players, traffic quality of connection can be a factor that is variable and unknown for players, organisers and in balance for that game.   Also a team in a LAN will tend to build up a recognisable level of play during that contest so each bet becomes more accurate to judge.    
   A big feature of CSGO is the netcode thats fairly plain for the original players of the first CS game and its engine, theres a large 'peekers advantage' given for more distant connections to try and balance the advantage of all on the server.   How this actually results is in an over advantage to movement rather then camping, this is an accepted bias in the game but its far more preferable to take part in competitions with little to no bias.   We cant do that at present with this lockdown so betting is slightly compromised by this inherent detail to the game.

when I bet on CSGO I’m all the time energized. I think this is a bad idea for me to do this or am I not alone in this?

That cannot be defined as a bad thing if you are energized when you bet. IMO that's even helpful to you if that's what makes you energized.
What makes you think that it's a bad idea for you to be like that?

[angrybirdy]

Do you think this will cause any ups-downs in the actual result of the matches?

Yes, as you have said, the mentioned teams are bad when it comes to playing online than their actual LAN gameplay. There are so many differences and difficulties for them, the actual result may actually be changed depends on how they will handle their difficulties right now.

My friend tried to teach me how to bet on games, but I still don’t understand how I can completely believe in games that can be contractual. I do not mean world championships, where is everything honest, but local.

I can't understand what the "Player Transfer" mean, but for me, CSGO betting is not really risky, in terms of health, most players can play online at their respective homes, as well as tournaments are held even if the players aren't together. So implementing betting in CSGO will not be hard since players have already established a strong reputation especially the teams that are mostly winning the game. But since they are all pro players, the chances of us winning is still 50/50 which will give us the excitement that we want while watching each game.

I think what player transfer means is when a certain player transfers to a different team to play. Maybe he finds it risky because the player will have a new teammate that bettors will be at risk due to this reason. This is usual scenario in games such as csgo anyways.

I don't think it's a bad thing to be emtional invested in your bets. Because if you wouldn't care at all there is a higher risk for you to just gamble and bet a lot without thinking twice. But there is a difference between energized and just betting for the fun of it because your actions don't have any effect on the betting. With gambling it's different you have more options. For betting it's just pacing your bet and watch, definitely best to enjoy the ride

No I choose to differ here, it is not good to be emotionally involved in gambling because you are making bets that will cost you money if they are wrong and being emotional usually brings the worst out of a gambler.

I remember when I was new into CSGO betting I used to love Natus vincere and even if my team was behind by 7-0 I would still bet on them which actually sometimes I won because of how amazing Navi was at that time but actually more often it resulted in loss.

E-sports betting in general does not involve much emotions usually but there are teams you start to love unconsciously and you make bets on them rather than against them so we need to identify that and stop making bets based on how we like a particular team rather focus on their performance and record.

Actually that is true and player changing teams is a big reason why some teams start playing good suddenly and why teams are so bad all of a sudden like you can see how Astralis are performing so bad and the reason behind is because their few players left and the voids created were not filled by the same level of players and hence it is actually risky if you are not following the csgo news closely.

Talking of players leaving team, I heard that Markus Kjærbye is now leaving his team North which might bring a new player to the team and the team might perform very badly or if they actually fill the void with a even better player then they might actually perform better than before.

There will always be different outcomes in different tournaments. It may have also affected their self-esteem since they are not physically present side-by-side which most players prefer because it can boost their morale while playing. This may also prove on which team or what team really performs the best even without being on LAN events. CS:Go has always have the most exciting betting experiences since the downfall of Astralis, I am not saying that they got weak or broken, but that Grand Slam was so monumental for the CS:Go Community and it is still good to watch some good games from them. Online games are always unpredictable since it only takes seconds to decide which one is the winner.

I was too emotional when I wrote this. Now, with a fresh mind, I see feedback and I'm even a little ashamed.

I agree that it would be worse if I didn’t care where I spend money or bet without emotions and excitement. I feel better, thank you!

Honestly, take your beer and watch your favorite team while betting on live odds. Watching the odds movement and analyzing the situation with live streaming will increase the chances, maybe the fresh excitement will renew itself on highlighting moments. Emotions are useless in trading, the inside felling will guide all gamblers in live betting. Pre-match betting is boring for me from this angle but it is an emotion-free decision for making more money.

[ImThour]

I am really missing CS:GO and LAN tournaments. 

[Shasha80]

For now I haven't decided to play CS: GO betting again, with a corona virus making the tournament online. Of course the game will be different
from the LAN tournament, possibility teams that are used to being good are likely to play poorly when playing online. And this can lead to
unpredictable results, so I think it will be very risky if it still imposes betting. It's better now I focus on sports betting.

for me its not a problem .  this is an online game and esports are also being held online if not offline  , so players already adapted both environment  .

 they wont play online when they knew that they have a problem with thier sytem or network to avoid unwanted problems  . on lan games problems can occur too but its up to you  , you shouldnt risk your self betting till things return to normal    .  sports betting have issues too more than esports , didnt you know that  ?
