The MLG lines are in + Show Spoiler [Complete lines] + Lots and lots of bets available, I've decided to bet sparsely on matches where I like the lines and have a sufficient understanding of both the player's skills.
-1.5 means the player has to win by at least a 1.5 match margin. i.e. 3-0, 3-1 but not 3-2. In a BO3 it's a 2-0.
I'm interested in how the foreigners will stack up against the Korean monsters. From what I've seen there's a rather large skill gap between the best in NA and the best in KR. Let's hope that reflects in my winnings
Thoughts? Did anyone else place some bets?

Moon is not bad, bad, bad. He's a good player, but he doesn't show it in GSL. He's been doing extremely well in NASL, and he also came 2nd in IEM.
EDIT: To clarify, I still think Naniwa will win, but give Moon some credit.

Of course, Moon is a great player yada yada, but compared to some of these other guys I've placed bets on, I think he has yet to practice to get on that same level. He has some solid micro, but his macro is very unrefined, and if it goes into a longer game I don't see him winning.

I bet way too much on this weekend xD TLO +1.5 2.140 3.470 Losira -1.5 1.752 1.332 Losira has a bad vT, TLO always shines in lans, I took the risk with those odds.
SeleCT 2.380 IdrA 1.617 Idra has a very high winrate against Select, a very safe bet with a very good price.
SeleCT 1.885 RET 1.971 Ret has a winning record against Select in recent matches, very easy bet at this price.
Moonan 2.160 SjoW 1.735 I took a little of Sjow (not a big bet), because the price is good. But I nearly bet on Moonan, he's on the rise and Sjow last NASL was awful (but was a vZ) Urg, you got the same@1.926 ><
SLush -1.5 2.030 1.385 Gretorp +1.5 1.833 3.160 Very good price for the handicap, Gretorp should get rolled.
Kiwikaki -1.5 2.360 1.541 Sheth +1.5 1.625 2.570 A fun little bet because of the good odd. Kiwi is a favorite but no by that much, and PvZ is hard nowadays.
Moonan +1.5 2.130 3.570 MMA -1.5 1.758 1.318 Yeah, I love risks.

Haha, I enjoyed reading your comments :D I am not sure MC is as unbeatable as you think, but I agreed with most of what you said. I can't wait to watch the results, either way.

sorry, i do not know this site very well. what is the link to the page you screenshotted? I would like to place my bets as well.

That's really risky
SeleCT 2.380 IdrA 1.617 Idra has a very high winrate against Select, a very safe bet with a very good price.
According to TLPD, idra a 60% winrate vs Select, that isn't "very high"...
SeleCT 1.885 RET 1.971 Ret has a winning record against Select in recent matches, very easy bet at this price. Again, ret only has 60%, thats not a "very easy bet", you are severely underestimating Select.
Kiwikaki -1.5 2.360 1.541 Sheth +1.5 1.625 2.570 A fun little bet because of the good odd. Kiwi is a favorite but no by that much, and PvZ is hard nowadays.
nonsense..
Moonan +1.5 2.130 3.570 MMA -1.5 1.758 1.318 Yeah, I love risks.
NONSENSE
I would have bet the exact same opposite of you :p

Yeah I agree on the LosirA part. TLO ... I love the guy, but he has just disappointed time and time again when it came to beating good players. He just focuses on the most creative builds. If I were to coach him, I'd just force him to go 1rax CC tank-marine vZ and vT 2 months nonstop, only MM vsP and just focus on mechanics and decision making.
But then there's his CT :/ I feel really bad for him. Tens of thousands of people made him their super-hero when he was just 18 and that can get to your head quite quickly... Get better TLO!
SeleCT 2.380 IdrA 1.617 Idra has a very high winrate against Select, a very safe bet with a very good price.
I agree, but I'm kind of wary betting on IdrA, he's got skill but he's just so inconsistent. Last MLG he went out in 2 really weird games against TLO, then there was that 0-2 against SeleCT where he got insta-cheesed out. If he were to get his head screwed straight-on, I'd be more willing to put money on him ... but as is, there's better players for that
SeleCT 1.885 RET 1.971 Ret has a winning record against Select in recent matches, very easy bet at this price.
Moonan 2.160 SjoW 1.735 I took a little of Sjow (not a big bet), because the price is good. But I nearly bet on Moonan, he's on the rise and Sjow last NASL was awful (but was a vZ)
Yeah Sjow is really bad vZ
Urg, you got the same@1.926 ><
^>^;;
SLush -1.5 2.030 1.385 Gretorp +1.5 1.833 3.160 Very good price for the handicap, Gretorp should get rolled.
I thought about betting here too ... but I don't know how either of these players play, so I refrained from doing so.
Kiwikaki -1.5 2.360 1.541 Sheth +1.5 1.625 2.570 A fun little bet because of the good odd. Kiwi is a favorite but no by that much, and PvZ is hard nowadays.
Yeah Sheth is kinda decent vP and Kiwi pretty cheesy, might turn out a good decision
Moonan +1.5 2.130 3.570 MMA -1.5 1.758 1.318 Yeah, I love risks.
Not such a bad bet, MMA is good at playing from behind, he should take that series without a problem, even if Moonan manages to surprise him.

Lol you took the safest bet possible. How much will you win(what ratio) if you get this perfect?

nonsense.. NONSENSE I would have bet the exact same opposite of you :p You don't seem to understand we're talking risk/reward here. I don't underestimate select, I just take a 60% win with a 2 to 1 payout. I think Sheth has a chance to win vs kiwi, at 2.6 to 1 I take it too. Yes, the TLO bet is risky. I bet he'll be able to take just one game, it seems very possible.

Not such a bad bet, MMA is good at playing from behind, he should take that series without a problem, even if Moonan manages to surprise him. Note that I posted my most risky/funny/controversial bets here (except the MMA one) It's mostly bets against who I think will win because I found the odd to be good. In idra's case, his vT is very solid at the moment, I would perhaps even had bet for him against bomber depending the odds. (what is the past tense for "bet" ? )
The odds of most MC's matches are too low now, didn't catch them at the good time, so no bet on him.

I didn't check the odds for all of them, but if we're just talking win-loss, I agree with almost all of your bets. Although, there always seem to be upsets somewhere Best of luck though!

-1.5 means the player has to win 2-0
Ignore the Pinnacle stuff. They're way incompetent when it comes to listing matches, and sometimes even deciding the lines
