Stats was mathematically the play but had a gut feeling Maru would rise to the occasion so didn't bet and Maru won

I've talked myself into a Life -1.5 bet here but idk if I like it, if Dream plays like he did vs Solar last week Life will win 4-0, if Dream plays like he did vs Solar a month ago he's probably a marginal favourite. I think either Life will roll him or it'll be a close 4-3 one way or the other

Any thoughts about Life-Inno tomorrow?

Didnt make any play yet, probably going to abstain and just watch

I agree. Life is also very good in bo7 match ups. He really shines in those long series.
Maybe i bet on some maps but let's see first what their shap is.

--------------------------

Life's play against dream should be a good indication how is chances against innovation are.

Lol Life, is it going to be ForGG-Life @Dreamhack type of series?

I missed g2, what happened?

-------------
Dream's mech is looking very inexperienced. He really should stick to bio.

Dream throwing the game4, the -1.5 lives somehow

Nope

Silly me betting for fun rather than profit.

I did win a bit back on Life Game 4, but not quite enough to be even (felt he had momentum after the g3 win and was right)

Got a tiny action sweat on Life in g7 too but certainly not a +EV bet at price I got

Lost a small amount on sweat bets today but no major bets

Maru is going to wreck Dream in the final probably. Shame Life threw a few maps away

Tempted to fire Innovation now, Life seems way less impressive after joining KT

Yeah in theory Innovation should beat him. I have a small future on Innovation to win Code S but may fire straight up too havent decided yet.

Innovation dropped to -150 already, opening near -130

I was thinking about betting on Innovation as well. But he did drop games to True and Sacsri who aren't even that good. His overall stats look fantastic but i am just not feeling it. Maybe i ll bet on the maps.
I wouldn't read too much into life's loss today. Dream is very good and he played well. Even so his loss was unexpected I think Life played at least decent except for some sloppy wm hits.

I cant believe Inno managed to throw this game after doing so much damage

Glad I didn't fire Inno. Good to see Life succeed. Cheering for Rogue here but would have bet Hero if I took either side but made no bet. Do have a Rogue future to win season tho but its small

Pretty crazy games today. Rogue's bringing the weird and it's fun to watch. The Hero -1.5 was tempting but just felt wrong but couldn't pull the trigger on Rogue either with hero's strong PvZ history

Whoa nice job Rogue. I missed g1 too, will have to watch later cause these games are good

I fired Rogue +1.5 and obviously glad now

Putting a small sweat on Rogue -180 now up 2-1, Hero not playing his best today and it's effectively a +1.5 on a bo3. Only a small action sweat but think I like it. Not going to recommend it as an official play or anything but seems ok

Glad it was only small I guess.

WP Hero. Semifinals should be awesome. Parting vs MMA and Life vs herO. 3/4 of the oldschool GSL players in the semis in this day and age is pretty crazy.

IEM lines are up, instantly took Solar, Life, and Rain as a start.

Tempted to fire : Maru -1,5, Zest over Hydra, and Trap over Flash

Which lines do you guys think are the least efficient: match, map or spread?
I'm interested in which ones are better to bet on

I am not sure i understand the question correctly.
Do you want to know which bettling line is most efficient for a specific match?
That depends on the odds for the specific match. You can calculate that.
For example: If you have a Bo3, possible lines in decimal odds:
Bo3 win: 1,35;
-1,5: 2,25
first map: 1,5.

The player would need at least a 66,67% per map in all cases for you to make a profit. All lines have the same efficiency. If the odds deviate from that you know which line is less efficient.
However I think Pinnacle as an algorithm in place that makes sure that the different lines are not too far from each other. The difference is (if at all) only a few per cent.


---------------
If you asking in general, I would say that from my own experience the -1,5 bets in sc2 are usually the ones that require the player to have a bid higher chance. (least efficient) I haven't however made a study how frequent -1,5 or +1,5 happens. I just look at each single map as an independent event.
