EPTAnyway, I didn't know iBP was doing well recently. Perhaps they have improved and will beat Na'Vi. I don't think Na'Vi is that good overall, really.

Na'Vi's T side is "sit in X spot/peek X corner, get a pick" on every map. They do that because they rely on being better aimers than their opponents. Anyway, I didn't know iBP was doing well recently. Perhaps they have improved and will beat Na'Vi. I don't think Na'Vi is that good overall, really. They already beat na'vi. CKoTH was yesterday. iBP is a solid team now but were a bit off at G3. The first day skadoodle was underperforming and the second day swag seemed completely out of it. If they all play well they are a great team. | ||

And if the team loses my skin is lost? You place up to 4 skins. The system shows you the money for the items you bet. After you bet them a bot will send a trading invite in steam and asks you for the skins. So if you bet 4 items with 0.25$ per item you got a total value of 1$. If you lose your skins are gone. If you win you will get skins dependant from the game quote. So if you bet on a high favourite (like 90%) you will get approximatly skins for 0.10$. These are automaticly choosen by the system out of looser pool. If you go for 10% underdog you will get like skins worth 10$ also randomly choosen. | ||

So if I win I keep my skins and get other skins of the calculated value? | ||

I think it was 10%-15% of your current bet so take that in note (no point in betting $.02 skins on a 80%+ odds if you're going to win nothing in return) Yeah dunno, I tried to bet an 0,02 $ (after taxes) skin on 40% odds just for the sake of trying it out and it said wait for an offer, then nothing happened. My bet wasn't confirmed. | ||

Like how much should i start off betting, what to bet on? http://www.reddit.com/r/csgobetting has a lot of resources. Generally, you want to start small with small bets only (this is where the $.02 trash skins come in handy). Best bet sizes based off your current inventory pool (at least the pool you allocate towards betting) Small: 0-10% Medium: 11%-20% High: 21-30% Betting is always a risky adventure so don't go yolo'ing skins then blame losing them on throws... As for betting, what you want to do is try to game the system, mainly csgolounge's odds. If you think csgolounge's odds are skewed beyond your personal odds, then bet accordingly. for example, Titan vs OnlineBots is like going to be 90:10 odds for titan. I would bet small on onlinebots cause if i bet anything less than a high bet on titan, I dont win anything (due to the taxes csgolounge has and I dont actually have a good betting pool), but if I win the upset, I cash out pretty hard. Once again, Never bet what you don't want to lose! | ||

Like how much should i start off betting, what to bet on? Obviously only bet things you're willing to lose. I started off betting the grey/light blue skins, only worth ~10 cents. But you'll soon realize like in all gambling, you don't get much in return unless it was a big upset. On the betting page, there's a "discuss option" + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/ds0xY90.png) you can see what people's opinions of the games are obviously. Personally, I like to bet on potential upsets/good odds. Occasionally teams will bet heavily on one team for some reason, even though those two seem pretty even in skill, or you've been reading one has been on a roll recently etc, or you just have blind faith :D. Best recent example was that ESEA match between fnatic and dignitas. For some reason it was bet 71% in dig's favour, so I put a small bet on fnatic, fnatic won. Since it was a small bet, didn't win much back, but still won  Try not to make bets on teams you don't really know. For me, those are like the random EU ladders, or random ESEA/CEVO matches that I don't know any of the teams.

My bet wasn't confirmed. If you see a screen on your bottom left that says "Waiting for bot, bot name is ____, confirmation code is _____ etc", then you just have to wait and check your steam account for an incoming trade offer. When you hear a sound, or see the notice say bot is ready, check your steam, go to the trade offer, double check the confirmation codes are correct (I've never had something try to fake a CSGL bot the same time I make a bet), and accept the offer. Sometimes the bots have been flagged as trade scammers, but it's usually false alarms. Check the confirmation codes to be sure of course. edit: lol xkcd beat me to it | ||
