LNG looked a bit sloppy at the start but good thing they woke up in map 2 and complete the reverse sweep.

Placed a couple of units on FPX -1.5 @1.93 vs UP, FPX continue to regress since their loss against JDG but I think they have what it takes to get the 2-0 today I know UP is somewhat decent as they beat LGD and IG but FPX looked clean against weaker teams.

finally, the first big tournament in CSGO in 2022 starts tomorrow: IEM Katowice

first few games are BO1, not my cup of tea so i'll wait for the best-of-3 games so i can start placing bets, but in this Play-In round, i'll keep my eyes on NIP and Entropiq, the latter have been impressive in the last month or so... btw, anyone seen Katowice promos in the sportsbooks? hmm, can't remember the last time i saw a good esports promo

[hanspeter77]

No promo so far but I hope stake releases one since they're one of the few that offers insurance or money back promos for CS and Dota.

I also want to watch Entropiq's match and take the over but unfortunately, the bookie i'm using still doesn't have total rounds so might have to stick with League unless they add it later today.

For my League bet I got JDG @1.60 vs OMG, JDG looks a bit better heading into this series while OMG is somewhat inconsistent winning three in a row then losing three in a row plus one of those losses came from one of the bottom teams.

[hanspeter77]

Today start the ESEA Season 40: Advanced Division - Europe  not something big they are some cool matches.
BIG Academy vs MASONIC  im hope BIG win butt it gone be more than hard, MASONIC play very good think they will win.
GH0STBUSTERS vs Sissi State Punks im think Sissi will win they are a very good team and for the future im seen this team in the major league.
fnatic Rising vs MAD Lions  maybe Fnatic win butt it not easy Lions the stronger team.

[ralle14]

JDG performed well than i'd expected as they took down OMG 2-0, if they keep that performance up we might see them somewhere between the top 5-6. Also surprised to see WBG take down EDG in the other series I thought it'd go to a third map after they won the first map but it seems like EDG is slowly falling off and maybe starting to show some cracks.

Moving on, TES -1.5 seems good against TT even though they've lost three series in a row I still think TOP is a decent team since they have the better players.

The over on V5 vs RNG is also enticing since V5's three map trend continues and four out of the seven series that RNG played went to three maps.

Almost missed its bo3 now which should make it easier.   Entropiq over Renegades who lost their star and the risky one I guess is Godsent over ENCE but I think they have done better recently.
       Fnatic vs BIG I will go 3 maps as that should be close enough, BIG takes it I guess as Fnatic have not done so great recently.  It was 3 maps last time they met.    3 maps for Mibr though I think they beat Movistar again its unclear, seems better to guess the struggle.

I will multi dig over avangar with Entropiq since favorites worked on last attempt with multis x3 paying.

Entropiq should have no problem getting past Renegades, the real test will be against Mouz who looked really damn good against FaZe with an amazing performance from the rookie torzsi

i had a 5 leg multi yesterday and all the CSGO picks won,


i'll skip katowice today but i like the +2.5 between Fnatic and Big and ENCE versus Godsent... my main bets today are RNG to beat V5, and Nongshim +1.5,, the latter will use Bdd finally, and GenG will have Zest (from challengers team) in top lane, this could be a very close game (prolly a fiesta lol) *EDIT RNshit and Nongshit Redforce on a mission to wreck my bets

[hanspeter77]

Today in the ESEA Season 40: Advanced Division - Europe
FATE Esprorts vs Entropiq Prague im think FATE will win they are the better team butt Entropiw is not to bad.
Conquer Gaming vs Singularity im think Sing will take this match home they need the point realy.
VP.Prodigy vs MAD Lions for sure win this Lions they are mutch better than VP.

Today is the start of another game and competition which is the BTS Pro Series and recently we saw that one of the top tier players in the SEA, the TNC change their rooster and now their members are available and now distributed into different teams. Armel goes to Fnatic with Raven, Tims goes to the Boom e-sports, Gabbi now is one of the members in the T1 I can see now a good fight, currently, of course Boom and T1 are one of the best in the series hoping that T1 will get this match.

Since PUBG went free to play, a number of issues have arisen, but the game remains at the top of the rankings. Also, the ESL Masters Americas PUBG tournament has already begun, and I've seen a lot of new teams, including some that appear to be promising, and all of the teams have made significant improvements in terms of game play. Even though the new teams are just getting started, they are not yet well-known or recognized. Let's see what happens in the following rounds.

These guys know how each other play, given that they stayed in the same team for over a year. Sure enough they will be getting a lot of information on the plays of each player right even before the match starts. Gabbi on T1, as I've said before, is a good synergy with Xepher's early aggressive rotations. Whitemon on the pos 5 is also usually aggressive, which matches Gabbi's carry playstyle. Armel on Fnatic with Raven might be a strong core combination with Armel's great mid rotation under min 10, but it still depends highly on the supports.

It's tough to back Heroic after their losing streak but I somewhat like them in this position since it's the opening match for them in this tournament and even though OG is on a solid streak i'm thinking it'll end up close and praying they'd get the edge since they're due for a win.



Also, Stake sent an email about an upcoming esports promotion, not sure what it is but I hope it's an insurance promo or maybe double winnings.

I'm so happy when Ragdoll sweep SMG on Dota2 yet OG in CS:GO break my happiness.

OG destroy my 3 bet parlay! It sucks that they easily give game 2 then they struggle to take the lead in game 3. They are always outplayed most of the time by heroic by using hiding spot that caught them off guard when going to the bomb site. Most of the bombs too of Heroic usually damaged 2 to 3 players on OG which is quite impressive accuracy in throw and prediction.

Its so good to watch there match especially the game 3. I believe OG become overconfident after they win the first set of the game.

[hanspeter77]

Today some nice matches in the ESL Meisterschaft Spring 2022
ALTERNATE aTTaX vs touch the crown for sure win alternate they ar emuch better.
No Limit Gaming vs CC OGLUM im think no limit will win they ar elonger in the game and have more Experience.
BIG Academy vs eSports Rhein Neckar for sure win BIG.

The series was indeed good and at the same time would make you sweat at how back and forth it was, whenever one team takes the lead the other can easily bounce back.

I'm going with Rare Atom @1.56 for today as they'll be facing LGD, two bottom teams with only one win so far but I think Rare Atom should be higher than their current place in the standings as they still have most of their core players in the lineup.

What a beautiful result happening on Dota2 World on all region. Too many under dog team defeat the most favorite team in this current Regional DPC tournament which gives a lot of win. I never thought Hellraiser will beat the TI champ Team Spirit on the upper bracket semi finals. I was hesitant to bet on an upset game but since there's a lot of upset game happening in other like RNG beat Team Aster and Orca beat Liquid. Betting on upset game is now my jam.

At the same time bookies making tons of money with these upsets. Hellraisers taking down Team Spirit was probably the biggest one so far while the closest one is RNG vs Aster betting on their series is like betting on coinflips as they always go to a third map. There's also another upset earlier on the NA region as TSM(Undying) took down EG but they're only slight underdogs since EG hasn't been putting up convincing results against the other top two teams in their region.

Continuing with my League picks i'm going for a slight value pick which is DRX -1.5 @2.06 last series DRX took down Damwon in a 2-1 fashion and HLE lost 2-0 against KDF after drafting the same lineup. On the other hand, their last meeting ended with DRX winning 2-1 but I think DRX could sweep them this time since they continue to improve while HLE is going on the opposite direction after forcing the same thing in the second map.

Yea I must say Hellraiser did well against Team spirit in their match. Was actually rooting for TS since most of my best on them , they've never really failed me, heck even made quite a profit when they themselves were considered the underdogs back in TI10. RNG performed rather well imo, it was an upset yes, but considering the performance they showed, they'd really be able to do it if they were to capitalize well on the mistakes and the like for Aster.

Yeah, Many parlay bets has been destroyed by these upset games since everyone is expecting an easy game for TS since they have solid performance before that match to Hellraiser. Typically adding TS on parlay will give an extra boost on the odds while having a confidence that they will win the game. I agree with you bookmakers earn a lot of profit to this kind of matches that always included on bettors parlay. Honestly I will bet on TS if I will gonna do a parlay that time. I'm just so lazy to browse more games at that time so that I just do a YOLO bet since this match is kinda a trend. Luckily I become successful this time. I hope they will have a rematch on the Grand finals or in lower bracket if VP take down HR in UB.
