i almost took the alliance ahc too but it was a stress free day so no tickets were placed...but not today, took the Over maps in TNC - BOOM
-snip-
great showing from BOOM. TNC's Boomy dying in the exact same spot every time in game 2 was hilarious tho, not sure what his gameplan was but i'll take that win (:

Good stuff, I also had a gut feeling the over would hit on that match but instead I backed TNC to win. Not the best odds but i'm happy with what I can get today since there's not a lot of interesting games and looking forward tomorrow as we have MSI.

Later i'm thinking of giving this one a go, o2.5 maps on Hellbear Smashers vs Nigma but the lines are currently down so I might have to do some live betting.

The match between No Bounty Hunters and LvL up was pretty weird today. After the win of No Bounty hunters in the second game it looked like they have the momentum on their side. Then after the draft for game 3 it looked like if they would be easily able to win game 3 too and therefore the series. Every caster said that No bounty hunters is the big favorite after the draft, but then level up completely stomped then within 20 minutes. I feel bad for everyone that placed a bet on No bounty hunters after game 2.

MSI 2021 going live in like an hour.
Odds are utter garbage for the first few games except for Mad Lions moneyline at 1.6, a bit generous imo. I don't follow PSG Talon at all although i do remember them having a decent showing at Worlds last year 🤔 will take that ML anyways

DWG KIA - Cloud9. Will watch it and keep an eye on the live markets

tbf, tier 2 eu dota is ramdom af all the time so you kinda expect to see these type of stuff on the daily which is why i avoid it as much as possible

DWG KIA - Cloud9. Will watch it and keep an eye on the live markets

I already went for DWG KIA on this match up even with the shitty odds still took them since Stake is offering a double winnings promo throughout the tournament as long as the total kills goes over 30.

For matches with decent odds i'm leaning on Wildcats to win vs Pain gaming over Mad lions game since PSG have a good chance at taking it tbh.

Next matches G2 esports vs Astralis  great match to watch G2 play very good the last matches maybe they win
FURIA esports vs Natus Vincere  hm FURIA play very agressive but Natus is ver good hard to say who win.

Natus have been playing well lately and FURIA are not very consistent. They do seem to surprise sometimes by sometimes winning against some really good teams and sometimes losing quite too easily. It would be a good match indeed and would be interesting to watch how FURIA proceed things out.

As for G2 vs Astralis, Astralis need their players to step up to their roles. Magisk is the only one doing heavy lifting most of time right now but others also need to step up. This fixture could also end in both ways.

I'm skipping the MSI tournament for now since the odds are so bad on most matches and switch to some dota action with a couple of CIS upper division games scheduled for later. I got Navi and Gambit -1.5 @2.1, Navi lost to VP 2-0 last week and with just 3 series remaining they need to win it all if they plan on qualifying for the major. Gambit currently not in the best position as they have one of the toughest schedule facing Team Spirit, VP and Navi at the start but I think they're still a good team that could 2-0 Puckchamp after they've bounced back with a 2-0 win vs Winstrike last week.

yeah, it's a toss up. I went with this, let's see how it goes


been a few days since i watched some csgo and i'm kida hyped for this one

@ralle14  yeah no value in the MSI odds today, but just in case, i'll keep the stream in the background, you just never know,, some early game action from Infinity eSports or DetonatioN and it could snowball out of control for the opponents, no? delusion LOL

For me, G2 vs Astralis matchup looks 50:50 more than Navi vs Furia. Furia played really bad recently while on the other side Navi are pretty good.
I got Navi ML @1.59 and I feel it's worth it.

Navi -1.5 is already hit. Winstrike played really bad and made so many mistakes in this series. I thought Winstrike will have a pretty good chance to take 1 map but still, I don't trust them and Navi ML odd wasn't good so I didn't place a bet on this series.

I also went for ASM Gambit -1.5 and hopefully it will hit too.

well, well, well



imagine losing to a JP team 😂 Blabber so bad 🤣..and earlier, DWG KIA deleted Infinity, no chance to catch good odds live

[Avirunes]

Damn where is the old Astralis.. . G2 are easily clutching with pistols against them lol. Even Bubjzkji is performing better than most of the his team. Dupreeh, Xyp9x all are doing a flop show. Didn't thought they will be giving such a flop show so far. Hope they turn things around from here on now as 2nd map stands at 11-10.

Nice catch, now i'm starting to regret not tuning in yesterday to catch those nice odds.  

Some interesting dota matches lined up later today, i'm taking Team Secret and Team Liquid @1.82 not the best odds but still close to even with both selections hovering at 1.3-1.4 not confident on taking the handicap since Secret and Liquid usually push the series to a third. OG needs this win if they plan to qualify for TI but after their loss against Tundra it feels like they're still not at their fully best.

Next go
Team Vitality vs Double Poney very funny name double Poney  butt im think they will lost, Team vitality is a very good team.

[hanspeter77]

Gambit Esports vs Natus Vincere  that gone be a great match to watch 2 very good teams, im think with a bit luck win Natus Vincere.

Lol again?    . Natus Vincere faced defeat just not long ago going against Gambit and I think outcome would be same again this time. Navi are playing good CS but Gambit are playing even better. There are too many impact players in Gambit and hence I think Gambit would win this clash.

I agree Gambit seems to be on another level right now, Navi kept it close last time pushing it to all 30 rounds on the decider map but Gambit manages to come out on top. The value seems to be on Navi @2.5 but i'll ride the Gambit train @1.5 hopefully we get a good final and my luck turns around for the better since I can't catch a break on dota.

If Navi can only win against teams that are worst than Heroic before this final match, then I'm pretty sure Gambit will win. But since they won against Heroic in the previous series which is one of the teams that can beat Gambit recently, I think Navi might still have a chance to win here.

Gambit ML odd is juicy tho, but I will still just watch this match.

So far doesn't seems like the Gambit we watched earlier -_-. Sh1ro missing shots and others are also not finding much impact. As for Navi, they are taking things aggressively and surprising Gambit out there entirely. It would be perfect revenge if they manage to defeat Gambit in this finals...would make up for all the losses.

yeah butt they lost last time ok, butt they can win. Natus vincere was 2 jears ago one of the best teams.
Ok Gambit play better like Natus, butt with a bit luck they can win.

More important than luck, it's about momentum. And I think Navi was really on fire and had pretty good momentum. It's sad for flamie but b1t is currently playing way better than him in Navi.

Speaking of momentum, It could be over now for Navi and I do think Gambit are still able to beat Navi in another match. Or maybe not 

Anyway, it's a good series with an unexpected result. GG
