idra is still good, but i say even taking a game off these 3 players in his group is an upset, it may happen, sure, but it still is an upset for him to not go 0-4, mainly because stephano and roro have insanely good ZvZ, and idra is weak in zvp, per usual.



Morefalse information. Stephano's ZvZ is ok. And RorO's is pretty damn good I'll give you that. But it's like you didn't really read what I said. ZvZ is IdrA's strongest matchup. By far. His ZvZ is easily better than Stephano's. And I like Stephano a lot. He will struggle against HerO, but I don't see him getting completely swept in this group.

IdrA has solid ZvZ, but I really disagree with you saying that it is his best match-up and "easily" better than Stephano's. I guess we'll see.

No way they won't play unless they're near death, they'll probably just play a lot worse, like SuperNoVa at IEM Sao Paulo.

So let's all hope that the remaining players with food poisining are Korean because we have evidence they can still place highly when they're handicapped.

So, the food poisoning source:


Manuel Schenkhuizen @followgrubby
I just saw the most cheerful bad weather report from over Asia ever on CNN from my sick bed. Attitude really matters!
4h

Manuel Schenkhuizen @followgrubby
Just heard 3 others have food poisoning, too. It's found to be the sashimi at this very upscale hotel restaurant we are all staying at.
8h

Manuel Schenkhuizen @followgrubby
Oh noes I got food poisoning and can't keep down food& fluids. TT feel so sick. Going to hospital soon..
8h


So who are the three others... hope Grubby recovers quickly... T_T

guys, would it be reasonable to put a larger stack on SEn against Killer?

Iam thinking thats one of those 99% games, besides Rain - Mafia (but Rain has 1.056 lol)

always thought SEn is a legit ZvZ sniper?

also how is his current shape

He beat Stephano and Dimaga at NASL, I don't know from other recent ZvZ performances but he is certainly not bad at it.

Sen is a good ZvZ player and Killer is not that good at it and also weaker in general.

Sen should be favoured by quite a lot, but I wouldn't say it's a 99% game. I'm never calling a 99% game again since I saw a BO3 with Machine beating viOlet in EG Master's Cup once. -.-

http://www.pinnaclesports.com/League/E Sports/SC2BatNetWCh/1/Lines.aspx

taking a look at the odds right now... the ones i consider "worth betting on" would be:
vibe > vortix @3.12 (vibe is pretty good)
idra > roro @4.28 (no way idra is 4.3:1 even with the anti-idra hype, roro is good but it's also zvz)
major > hero[join] @3.89 (this is a definite possibility, major is decent and hero fell against thebest 2-0 in code A prelims lol)
moonglade > scarlett @2.75 (he's pretty good)

nerchio vs. creator is kinda borderline, 2.39 is not that bad imo for nerchio

for the handicap bids,
parting 2-0 socke @2.04 is not bad
rain 2-0 mafia @1.333 not bad either lolol

other than that, not much stand out?
