Bets 14-09-16

CW v 1Shot
CSGL odds: 83-17
Egaming bets: 74-26
My odds: 80-20
Map: BO1 TBA
CW played quite decently yesterday and I see this match going pretty easily to them. If you can get decent returns from a low-mid bet with the current odds then go for it.

LC v dAT
CSGL odds: 71-29
My odds: 65-35
Map: BO3 TBA
LC are the better team here despite not having played well recently (neither have dAT for that matter). LC should be able to take this, especially with it being a BO3.

HR v 3DMAX
CSGL odds: 77-23
Egaming bets: 69-31
My odds: 60-40
Map: BO1 TBA
Encore's first match under the 3DMAX sponsorship title. Normally I'd give HR 70-30 odds here but recently they've not been so hot. Given the current odds skipping or ICB on 3DMAX are the best choices.

NiP v LDLC
CSGL odds: 77-23
My odds: 70-30
Map: BO3 TBA
LDLC aren't bad but this being a BO3 means I'm not too worried about NiP taking this.

CW v Epsilon
CSGL odds: 45-55
Egaming bets: 44-56
My odds: 50-50
Map: BO5, cache, dust2, mirage, inferno, overpass
This is just a showmatch so I'm not expecting much here.

VP v 1Shot
CSGL odds: 83-17
My odds: 80-20
Map: BO1 TBA
This match should go to VP quite easily but as I said before the odds aren't worth the risk.

HR v Planetkey
CSGL odds: 62-38
Egaming bets: 65-35
My odds: 60-40
Map: BO1 TBA
HR should be able to take this but the current odds aren't good for betting. It'd be worth waiting until after HR's earlier match to see how well they're playing and to see how the CSGL odds change.

VP v myXMG
CSGL odds: 70-30
My odds: 70-30
Map: BO1 TBA
XMG were lucky enough to scrape by with a win against UNW yesterday but I don't expect to see that repeated.

Titan v Dignitas
CSGL odds: 44-56
My odds: 35-65 (45-55 if Dig have stand-ins)
Map: BO1 de_inferno
Dignitas shouldn't have any stand-ins today though they shouldn't have had any yesterday and they still ended up with Wantz playing for Dupreeh. Eitherway Dig should be able to take this.

Fnatic v TBD
CSGL odds: 93-7
My odds: 90-10 for dAT | 85-15 for LC
Map: BO3 TBA
This will either be Fnatic v dAT or (more likely) Fnatic v LC. Eitherway Fnatic shouldn't have a hard time taking this match. Odds probably won't be worth a bet here unless you're a high-roller and can expect some decent returns.

LDLC v myXMG
CSGL odds: 74-26
My odds: 60-40
Map: BO1 TBA
LDLC should be the better team here but their loss against Epsilon last night and their (probable) loss against NiP later today might put them in a bad place. I still think they should take this match but the odds aren't great.


CW v 1Shot: Mid on CW
LC v dAT: Skip
HR v 3DMAX: Skip or ICB on 3DMAX
NiP v LDLC: Low on NiP
CW v Epsilon: Low-mid on underdog (currently CW) or skip
VP v 1Shot: Mid on VP
HR v PKD: Depends on HR's earlier match, probably low-mid on HR
VP v myXMG: Low-mid on VP
Dig v Titan: Mid on Dignitas
Fnatic v TBD: Skip unless you can bet enough for an overpay
LDLC v myXMG: Depends how LDLC/myXMG play in their earlier matches, probably skip
