Nerchio already beat YongHwa in this tournament. It sounds more like you are just biased in favor of Koreans, assuming that the foreigner will get crushed, or is at least playing against the odds.


Shut up, maybe you don't understand how odds works but to think that Nerchio is a favorite 5-1 is moronic.

Moronic is your post, Nerchio is winning everything from the start, it's no surprise to expecting him to continue to win.


Want to lay me 5-1 odds? We can go through paypal.




5000$ Put me down.


I don't have that kind of money, but something smaller should be the same to you right?


He's obviously talking about e-sports dollars!

Moronic is your post, Nerchio is winning everything from the start, it's no surprise to expecting him to continue to win.


Expecting him to win is far different than expecting 5 to 1 odds. 5 to 1 odds means Nerchio should 4-0 YongHwa. If he even drops a game that means he had less than a 5 to 1 chance of winning.

So you count every game instead of the whole match?


For an actual bet the score wouldn't matter but if you are going to take 5 to 1 odds then you should be damn confident in your player. If he even loses one game then that means your confidence was misplaced and you shouldn't have made the bet because you had a higher chance of losing money than winning it.

You are wrong and are explaining it in a quite stupid way. Someone can be extreemly confident Nerchio will win a bo7 while still betting money he will lose a game or two. Those aren't mutally exclusive.


What it does mean is that Nerchio has to beat Yonghwa in a bo7 5 out of 6 times to make it breakeven EV. It's a suckers bet, and I'm just hoping to take advantage of the Euro bias and general stupidity found on the forum.

Again, willing to make a bet with someone who will give me 5-1 odds.

I'm willing to bet 50 bucks (I know, not a lot, but this is basically for fun and to prove a point)

Really? I called he'd reach the finals from the first group stage, I mean besides MC there shouldn't be anyone better than him here on paper atm. Nerchio was a positive surprise, but even he must be seen as an underdog in theory, although he's played very well today, so maybe not.

YongHwa was the only one that qualified for this from the Korean qualifier, while MC and MVP were invited. So he surely deserves it.

That series was essentially 50/50, doesn't really say much. Should be a really good finals though.

No, Mvp was looking terrible leading up this, had very little faith in him. (Which evidentially was reasonable thinking)
