Variety of bets

The GGBet betting company offers to make several betting options, such as:

• on the result of the match;
• on the winner of the entire tournament;
• on the number of rounds and maps, as well as on many other things.

Before choosing the best option for yourself, it is recommended to familiarize yourself with the basic rules of the game.

Bet on underdog

Taking into account that CS:GO is unpredictable, there is a chance that the tournament’s underdog will win. The GGBet bookmaker offers high odds for the underdog to win. However, you should not make this type of bet in every match, as it is a big risk.

Betting on the underdog is relevant in the following cases:

• if the favorite is showing a weak game, and his opponent is winning in the last few matches;
• the match does not affect the leader's position in the tournament table;
• the favorite's team does not have key players, and the underdog is playing in its usual lineup;
• the leader plays well only on selected maps, and the other team shows excellent results in most locations.

It is recommended to bet on an underdog only in championships with a low level. First, it is necessary to analyze the teams based on ratings and statistics. The odds for this type of bet are at the level of 2.5–3.0.

Bets on the winner of the map

This is a quite popular betting option. However, it is only relevant for those who bet in Live mode. After all, you will have to monitor what is happening on the maps. You should first analyze the teams. Consider the specific tactics of all participants, and also identify bad and good locations.

As soon as the teams decide on the maps, you can start making a bet. It should be noted that favorites will always win on their favorite locations. That is why it is better to refuse from the bets on the underdog in order not to lose your own funds. An exception may be a match when the favorite is not in the best shape.

Bet on a handicap on maps

In CS:GO matches, you can bet on the victory of a certain team with a handicap. A minus handicap is set for strong teams, and a plus handicap is used for weak teams. If you bet on a handicap with a minus, you will get a prize. But on the condition that the favorite wins with a score of 2:0. If you make a bet with a positive handicap, then success is guaranteed. This will happen provided that the underdog wins or loses with a score of 1:2.

It is recommended to bet on handicaps by maps if the match clearly shows an underdog and a favorite. In this case, the odds for the victory of the clear winner will be at the level of 1.2–1.3. A positive handicap is relevant if the opponents are equal.

Guide on CS:GO bets

Before you start betting, you need to do a number of things, namely:

1. Analyze all the teams that are taking part in the tournament. You should also take into account the ratings of not only the group, but also specific players. Pay attention to their statistics on the best and worst maps.
2. Watch streams where fights between teams are broadcast. This will allow you to get acquainted with all the rules of the game in more detail and make a decision faster.
3. When betting in Live mode, carefully watch what is happening on the screen. This will help you quickly change your decision.
4. Consider the condition of the players. Pay attention not only to the physical, but also the psychological component. Take into account the countries in which the championship will be held. If American players come to Asia, they may find it difficult to adjust to a new time zone, which will negatively affect their game.
5. Consider the team rosters. Constant staff turnover has a great impact on the course of the match.
6. Learn to manage your bankroll. You shouldn't make big bets from the very beginning, because you risk losing money quickly.
7. Consider the motivation of your opponents. Each match is important for certain participants. If a clear favorite and an underdog in the tournament table enter the field, the stronger side will not try to win. After all, it is already at the top. But the underdog can make every effort to rise a little in the ranking.
8. Play several matches yourself. This will allow to familiarize yourself in detail with the dynamics and rules of the game process.
9. Read forecasts from experts. Listen to the opinions of analysts, but make the final decision yourself.

The GGBet bookmaker publishes brief information about each team on its website, which allows bettors to make the right decision faster.

Key features of betting in a Live mode

Most bettors prefer Live betting. After all, this allows them to track the movement of odds depending on the performance of a particular team. If the first half of the map was played with a loss of a certain team, this does not indicate that the entire match will end like this. The situation can change at any moment. If you bet in the pre-match, you will not be able to change your mind and risk losing money.

When betting in Live mode, you can change the favorite and bet on it. Despite the fact that in this format the odds are insignificant, bettors retain the opportunity to win a prize.

Up to 100 tournaments are held annually, all of them have different ranks. Tournaments with a low rating are called minors. They have insignificant prize pools, but there are many clear favorites. After all, each team is trying to rise in the rating and get access to major competitions.

There are also majors. Such competitions are of a high level and offer participants large prize pools. It is difficult to single out outsiders and favorites here, so the odds will be the highest.
