I had a good start today thx to Fnatic's great match against LGD https://i.ibb.co/rfWR4wD/fnatic.png and that might be my only esports ticket today, not really feeling the IEM and Dota matches
heh! LGD - TSM, baron for nexus, u love to see it lolol

I had Fnatic on that match as well the odds weren't close to even since I took them live but still a good win. LGD had an okay draft but they lack good positioning and that's where Fnatic punished them hard.

Speaking of TSM unbelievable they went 0-6.  

btw, anyone here cares about Overwatch? the OWL 2020 grand final starts in about 20min, looks like it's gonna be a cracking match!

Indeed an interesting grand finals I think SF takes it but I rarely bet on the OWL.

What do you think about today's matches? GL!

I like both of the OG pick might go for them later today once the worlds is finished.

Hi guys,

Unfortunately, Vitality ruined my combo yesterday, awful performance for French team, but today I gonna recoup. Here are my bets for today:

OG - Faze: My bet
100 Thieves - Team Liquid: My bet
NaVi - Team Liquid: My bet

Hope, OG will show their best vs Faze (in fact they need to).

Wish y`all good luck!!!

Group C of the ro16 is up in a few minutes...

You guys watch this player called 'Flash' more closely if you're gonna watch.  He's the best in the game but for this season he'll play random instead of his best race, Terran.  Yup, this is something huge.

my biggest win of the week...FlyQuest with the airport buff lol winning against arguibly the 2nd best team in the world right now



i know odds prematch were almost at 8 for FLY, but unfortunately, during the match, my bookie was having a seizure, couldn't keep up with FlyQuest mindblowing performance and didn't let me grab 4 odds nor 3 odds so the above was the only one i managed to caught after like my 4th attempt 🤣

anyhoo, Reminder: today's the Hearthstone Grandmasters 2020 Season 2 semis and Finals...anyone watching it? i am, Surrender - tom60229

@Toke  i missed Flash - free but i did watch Snow - Hero, and a bit of 2nd map in the Snow - Flash match...man, i'm starting to wonder if by the time we reach the final in november, i'll be able understand the basics of the game  i think i will

What are the websites you use to bet on ? And what are the websites/apps you use to watch the games ? I have twitch through amazon prime, is that enough ?

I'm buying a TV I will add to my 3 PC screen setup so I can watch while doing other things :p

Dota 2 and CS:GO low tier matches ,are most of the times rigged but it's your fault to bet on this games. There are numerous interviews with "pro" players when they speak about this rigged games and even big players from my country told us that this event used to happen a lot back in time but no so much now.

The most rigged game of dota 2 that I've ever seen was 1 month ago I think when a team won with core at 16HP I think just because Arc Warden got a buff who could cover the entire core without taking damage for a long time. The team that lost had over 30k gold advantage and yet they lost in the final push. That was the last time I watched Dota 2. Overwatch seems good as it's hard to see rigged games as the game is a changing fortune in battles.

100 Thieves - Team Liquid: My bet

Hope, OG will show their best vs Faze (in fact they need to).

Faze upset is not that likely without some edge by the lower ranked team is my estimate where as Vitality and French teams in general at times bomb out for no apparent reason, I dont exactly understand why but its not a new phenomena.   Keeps the bets interesting I guess, I see OG is higher ranked then I realized but still they might need more time is my guess or judgement on how teams develop and build momentum to defeat the older teams.
   I'm looking at live odds for Liquid vs Thieves and the game starts and its already something like 5x for 100T bet is attractive and they do have at least one world class player but Ive not been watching them or much CS recently to judge even at those nice odds.    100T is 7x now is funny at just game start on a map thats not their pick, this where I start to like the underdog bets alot and hopefully I'll get back into the game more to take advantage, I can just convert cases and old skins to crypto to bet them so I really should do that tbh.

I have twitch through amazon prime, is that enough ?

Very often should be enough yea.

[tokeweed]

Final group of ro16 is playing in 30 mins or so!

Anyway, I see that Team Liquid is known by some of you guys.  In case you didn't know, the whole tl.net community started in Broodwar and grew from there.  Liquid.Nazgul, the founder, and Elky, another member of the tl.net community, are buddies and went on to take up online poker together with a bunch of other guys in South Korea.

Thanks for your answer and STT too. Unfortunately I can't connect to twitch from work, too bad ! I will have to find a way to go around that to get a feeling from these games.

Well, that might be possible since low tier events won't be included in the DPC for DOTA 2 since Valve is responsible for keeping DOTA 2 environment clear of these situations. Professionals are also scared to rig games now since they can be instantly banned. These "Pros" you mention might just be some big names but not really "Pros" because of the "322" incident but that Player really dodged a bullet.

Finally there's an interesting dota match for today and that's OG vs Alliance both of them have a 2-0 record with OG having a slightly better results and faced better teams. The head to head results favor Alliance in the last two meetings but i'll take my chances with OG @1.69(boosted odds) this time because in their last meeting Notail had to step in for Topson and their coach filled in the support role.

I can't wait for the quarterfinals tomorrow. Two of the four matches seems like the LCK and LPL playoffs all over again.  

Edit : Alliance wins 2-1. OG got too confident by drafting the same heroes after winning the first map then got outdrafted in the decider map.

O very nice ESL German League is going on Today.
My favorite is BIG they play 2 round vs esport rhein neckar ( this is about 50km away from me )
And Touch the Crown we will se im think they will win.
BIG play the last months not so good, im dont now why, new round new luck

It's still the thought of most about Dota 2 games for lower tier teams. But as a Dota 2 observer and watcher, I don't think that it still happens often.

I assume that you're talking about Nigma's match and Miracle's Arc Warden. You need to know that it's not a rigged match. There's nothing wrong with that if you observe that as a player.

The betting site itself will broadcast games, especially relevant if they have live betting with the rounds and maps proceeding.   That may help you or not, sometimes that will just display Twitch in a box but possibly other sites like Youtube.    An easy one for CSGO would be HLTV which displays game progress in text and team vs team display format, can be useful to look at for 10 seconds while the boss is the other side of the office :p

winning streak continues, i'm now 8/8 wins in the last 6 days 👀 (biggest streak in months) Yesterday, Spirit and Alliance with two great wins + Damwon - DRX right now (typical +30min game from LCK teams)

if i were a high roller i woulda been limited already lolol

anyhoo, i have a feeling the streak could come to an end today, though...i have 3 more tickets..wish me luck!

DWG - DRX https://i.ibb.co/25mHjtJ/2.png ---> 
Fnatic - OG https://i.ibb.co/Nt7mzfv/3.png
Furia - Liquid https://i.ibb.co/VS5pz4x/1.png

That's crazy. Time to ride on your tips I guess  . Today I backed Nip to win their 2nd map after they lost their first map to Sprout in CS and they lost their 2nd map as well. Really not sure what is going on with Nip but usually they are not this bad.

Nip is shaky atm and I will leave betting on it for now.

[Trofo]

This weak is crazy busy for me and I just managed to squeeze in few minutes and play a ticket. I missed on most stuff today so just added a simple double to watch something in the evening.
ENCE - North over 2.5 maps, when I checked their map pool it looks like both teams should have one easy map to win and then decider should be a tricky one
Astralis to win against Heretic, Heroic is in quite bad patch of results and I don't expect them to turn the tables against Astralis. At least we are sure that Danish team will win
