I see that everyone's killing it today, keep it up guys!

I had to change my initial NaVi vs. NiP pick from OVER to NaVi winning after the map selection. I'm not blindly following percentages but all three maps NaVi had better recent results which made me switch my pick. Glad that complexity finished the job against OG...no surprises there.

Today has been literally perfect for me! It felt as if I knew what games to bet on and what lines to avoid  

yeah man..hella weird, huh? btw, you mind if i borrow that time machine?    and that's a nice looking winning streak!

I see that everyone's killing it today, keep it up guys!

i'm killing it lately but only in soccer...esports? #EZ4bookies2takeMuhMoney

already got my two singles for tomorrow: Dota Fnatic -1.5 @1.87 X / CSGO Spirit ML @1.60 ✔

now off to watch the best team in NA, Furia  
EDIT* Furia lost 0-2 vs. MIBR...2020 is officially a weird ass year lol

Feels nice to break the streak yesterday Complexity made the game very close in the end of the third but eventually they manage to close it. Today, i'm backing the over this time instead of the match winner on the G2 vs ENCE series. I think G2 would win but the odds are slightly better on the over.

I missed the entire series but was able to watch the second half of the second map and they looked like a different team maybe the long pause had an effect on them.

The game was the most annoying one I've seen so far! So many technical pauses, players freezing in game and shit! Furia were 13-12 up in Map it was reversed to 12-12 after the break, up to if not more two hours of technical pauses. It went side ways from there feels like fixed f**k, You could see how nervous the Furia team looked after the several breaks, but It is what it is  


Very busy day for me so not bet so far for me, I'll update my bets very soon

1W-1L for me today. Team Spirit won after double OT in map 3, pretty good match.
will edit this post with my picks later today, i'll probably go with CSGO picks only.

lucky Thursday picks:
CSGO
multi - Natus Vincere to WIN + BIG to WIN @1.92 X
Vit - FaZe O.25 @1.88 X
FURIA ML @1.63 ✔

I think G2 would win but the odds are slightly better on the over.

And they're in map 3. Nice pick!

That match was such a shitshow lol and then the whole thing on social media with this and then this, cringe!

@Harko  awful series, lasted like what? 3 hours? But it's bit sad that MIBR can only beat Furia in Bo3 whenever there's some shady stuff going down   can't wait until they meet again, gonna be a bloodbath, Furia are going to annihilate MIBR is gonna be hard to watch

Yeah right, a total shit show.

I'm in on Liquid vs Evil Geniuses; It's Dust 2 for 2nd Map, that's Evil Geniuses 2nd worse performing map and Liquid's Best, since EG are even getting swept under the carpet in their own picked map, I reckon that this would be an EZ 2 - 0 for Liquid.

I took Liquid -3.5 rounds in the 2nd Map @ 2.0 odds.

[STT]

EG just to win Dust2 was showing as 5.4 right now, seems like fair odds to consider.   I hesitated too long and its disappeared but EG can win dust2 I'd hope as its not a strat map but I missed this first map so maybe they really are tired and unlikely to pull anything out of the bag.    I can see why Liquid has been doing so well but 3 maps is still a possible.

Live betting ftw "look Furia lost the first map, but they are the favs so why not put a mid-sized bet on them to win 2nd map?" @1.38
Not to mention that it took more than 10min to place my bet, technical problems my ass...

This weird fuckery continued with my bet on ENCE to win the first map against G2. Train isn't one of G2's fav maps, in fact, in their last two games they had won only 8 rounds total:



GIVE ME YOUR WINNING TICKETS FOR TOMORROW!!! I'm not getting three losses in a row, please!

Same with me on EG vs Team Liquid 2nd Map. I've never been lucky with those 22:30 (GMT+1) fixtures to be honest.. I was already on my best mood with Team Liquid up by 5 and EG yet to get on the score board, then the whole story change  

Liquid were such a joy to watch in the first map and NAF with some really smart play, the best imo being during their T-side running away from a gun fight in the bomb site vs two EG players, leaving them to diffuse the bomb, then bang! He went around and over the roof to take them both out from behind (all in a jiffy)  

GIVE ME YOUR WINNING TICKETS FOR TOMORROW!!! I'm not getting three losses in a row, please!

I could use a win too, I went from 5 straight wins to two consecutive losses.

[STT]

I watched Dust2 and like you said EG were losing, even when they won a couple I didnt think it'd be nearly enough.   NAF did 2 great clutches and he is a great player  often, the odds for EG to win this series at this point were @10  which for live bets might be the max possible.    I did bet EG but I didnt bother adding at that point, I figured EG had lost their dust mojo and went to get food.

2 clutches by NAF while simultaneously somehow his team only got a further 3 rounds after being 5-0 up.

Already posted my picks above.

Unless s1mple and eletronic start trolling, Na'Vi should win against COL, the latter were pretty shaky against OG the other day. I don't trust FaZe or Vitality so i'd rather avoid picking a winner and go with maps, should be a close game. BIG - forZe...easiest match the germans have had in a long time.

Main bet is Furia to WIN...gotta bounce back from that shitshow of a match against MIBR, and Liquid's performance last night was pretty bad, so large bet on the brazilians, let's go!!

Picked Complexity just for fun in second break and they totally broke Navi apart in third map- mirage. Didn't expected to break them that hard with 16-3 . Expected to fight a bit hard as what I have seen Navi play in Mirage. Anyway good for Complexity and really a good game.

[ChuckBuck]

I recently started watching CSGO tournaments, and s1mple became my idol in this game  he's got some really classics play, it makes us all admire. Sometimes I watch him shoot and I wonder, how can humans do that? His reflexes are appalling, his reflexes sometimes make me think he's not human  Although most of the players have very good reflexes, s1mple impressed me the most. What do you think if we only bet on our idols regardless of win rate or profit?

I had Na'Vi ML, that was such a blow to me.. 3 losses in a row. Had I waited for the map pick before placing my bet, I'm very sure I would have had a second go for CompLexity 1.5 instead, not as if Complexity have been really shitty recently, but they even had winning rate on all selected maps compared to Na'Vi

BiG vs ForZe, with BiG ML would be my saving grace of the day... Looking all good for now with BiG highly dominant in the 1st map. I don't want no dramas no more, please!

Man, Na'Vi were awful today, map 3 was just shocking. I did say earlier that s0mple and electronic need to show up today for this game to be a piece of cake...As usual, s0mple with the amazing stats, but eletrobot with 26 K - 50 D in the series...oh well   G2 - Na'Vi tomorrow, idk what to expect :/

Easy win for FaZe today...Well, now i'm counting on Furia to give me a big win

He should've stopped walking on that push with no contact but there is no counter strat to s1mple

On that performance G2 will beat Navi, the story here is teamwork and its always that way for bo3 especially.   Complexity are underrated basically, going to have to remember that for the future and the odds today after they lost that first map must have been so nice.   Hope I can catch it next time they can upset but Col have a good groove they get into where they all over-perform, add in that Navi are not properly awake and the scores are correct.   I think its an effect from no proper LAN occuring.

I manage to profit on the Complexity and Navi match by doing some live betting then threw it all away on the Faze and Vitality match. I was expecting a three map series between Faze and Vitality but was denied after Faze manage to shut down Zywoo on both maps and sweep it 2-0.

Easy win for FaZe today...Well, now i'm counting on Furia to give me a big win  

I'm going to take Furia as well I think they'll be hungry after the bad beat they got from Mibr. Team Liquid is just unpredictable even though there's a possibility for an upset i'm taking the risk with the best team in NA.

[Trofo]

A lot of crazy results today, good thing I was in hurry so I only took Aliance ML. If I had time I would have put more bets and probably lost all of them. Just now B8 managed to 2:0 Team Unique. Didn't see this one coming for sure. I was actually pissed I didn't manage to put money on Unique and it turned out quite nicely for me.

I don't have free time to watch this game, time zone difference and work, I don't have time to watch live  I can only watch it after the match has happened, even if the video you submitted, I haven't watched it yet  But, look at it. He did very well, but NaVi had a better squad, it was a personal performance for him. I did not bet on this match 

[tomahawk9]

Huge win from Furia last night, made me recover some of my lossess over the past few days (:

for today:
parlay
Team Spirit to WIN + Fnatic to WIN + Nigma -1.5 / total odds @3.01 ✖
Dota
Alliance TRASHlliance ML @1.82 ✖

i feel like the three games in the BLAST premier today are coin flip, EG may have the edge against MIBR, but just a tiny bit, but still, i'm not gonna risk it.

I'm going to take Furia as well <...>
