Odds that Haypro will have and epic SC2 interview about his gambling and show-catching Vegas ways at the end of IPL4 5:1 I'd like to see that, but not taking it. Odds that Hot_Bid uses IPL4 as a platform to promote his Maxim Gamer Girl status 2:1 Of course he will! Odds that someone will miss a game from being hungover or by some other debaucherous happenings 1:1 I'd make that 4:1 honestly... then maybe any takers? Interesting ideas... | ||

There will be some handsome nerds in attendence, and of course, there's the untapped potential of the anonymous open bracket players to bolster the odds. As for the celebrities, well, there always should be some in Vegas. Now, the hook up is the relatively easy part, though not exactly high probability venture. Even if the hookup happens, there's a low chance that it becomes widespread knowledge on top of that. All that may be true, but I'm basing my analysis on the investigative, drama-mongering powers of TL and Reddit, which experience has shown to be quite formidable when roused. So keep your eyes peeled and cameras ready, attendees, as a little gossip might be esports' big break! So @Gomtv Just met 50cent in the lobby of the Cosmopolitan. 50cent StarCraft fan? #GSTL Who is going to be hooking up with 50cent. If ESPORTS wants to make it big, it doesn't get bigger than 50. | ||

Tangent: From a spectator and esports fan's perspective, when you consider that Copenhagen Games and The Gathering were on the same weekend last year as well, you can't help but think that these two events really should have a talk and figure out some way not to overlap. The player pool for each event is quite intriguing, but combine the two and you have an actual competitor to IPL – an Assembly to your MLG so to speak. At any rate, people should watch; there's nothing wrong with more Starcraft for your weekend, and two simultaneous battles between top European GM's should be well worth everyone's time. Do your research first. The Gathering have been during the easter in over 20 years. Why the easter? Because the main purpose of TG is being a LAN - not being a tournament (which it also is, but that´s not the main reason The Gathering exists). I don´t know the history of Copenhagen Games, which may very well exist for the same reasons. Though I agree that it would be better if they didn´t overlap since the competition would be higher with more and better people. But TG will never change their date, never. | ||

Too bad Pinnacle's not open to the US. Actually you can make good money with betting on esports, because there are some really strange odds from time to time :D There was a blog by someone about betting and he made good calls. I got a big + in money overall too  | ||

Of course, there's no chance in hell that IdrA will beat MMA, who is the best TvZ player in the world by some stupid margin – forget whatever you've seen MKP do in recent weeks. However, an IdrA > Bomber upset seems totally reasonable. IdrA's biggest, most impressive wins over Koreans in tournaments have mostly come against Terran opponents, such as Mvp, SuperNoVa, PuMa, etc. Bomber at his best would definitely be favored to win, but he's always been an incredibly inconsistent player, going from 5 – 0ing teams in the GSTL to dropping out of the GSL in the same week, and going from winning to MLG Raleigh to getting eliminated by IdrA in Orlando... There's a number of beatable opponents that could float in from the open bracket as well. ZvZ can be pretty volatile, so you never know what might happen against a BBoongBBoongPrime or ST_Curious. All-in-all, 1 to 3 seems a bit harsh for IdrA to lose every single series. You must come from the future, tell me more about it | ||
