Market depth · CS2 Example odds

Five CS2 markets, priced as an example

What each market pays out on, the implied probability and the margin. The odds show the method; check live prices before you bet.

Match winner

Who wins the series. In a BO3 the first team to two maps.

Outcome Odds Probability
Vitality 1.63 61.3%
Falcons 2.25 44.4%
Sum 105.8%
Margin 5.5%

So what: usually the lowest margin of any market on the match.

Map handicap

Vitality −1.5 maps must win 2–0. Falcons +1.5 wins if they take at least one map.

Outcome Odds Probability
Vitality −1.5 2.70 37.0%
Falcons +1.5 1.42 70.4%
Sum 107.5%
Margin 6.9%

So what: turns a short favourite into a longer price, at a slightly higher margin.

Total maps

Over 2.5 if the series goes to a third map, under if it ends 2–0 either way.

Outcome Odds Probability
Over 2.5 2.02 49.5%
Under 2.5 1.72 58.1%
Sum 107.6%
Margin 7.1%

So what: a bet on how close the series is, not on who wins.

Total rounds, map 1

Over or under 21.5 rounds. CS2 regulation is 24 rounds, first to 13.

Outcome Odds Probability
Over 21.5 1.83 54.6%
Under 21.5 1.87 53.5%
Sum 108.1%
Margin 7.5%

So what: a 13–9 or closer map goes over, and overtime always does.

Correct score

Exact series result in a BO3.

Outcome Odds Probability
2–0 2.70 37.0%
2–1 3.50 28.6%
1–2 4.40 22.7%
0–2 4.50 22.2%
Sum 110.6%
Margin 9.5%

So what: four outcomes, so the margin roughly doubles against match winner.

Example odds set by esportranker, not live prices at GG.bet. Implied = 1 ÷ odds. Margin = 1 − 1 ÷ sum.

Live and cash out Example data

In-play esports betting: what to check

Live odds move every round

Esports prices update after each round, kill or objective, and live margins usually sit above pre-match ones.

So what: compare the live price with the pre-match line before you bet.

Streams run behind

Tournament broadcasts add a delay, and in-app streams can lag behind the server.

So what: never bet on a play you just saw; the odds have already moved.

Cash out, worked example

You staked $50 at odds 2.30 and the same outcome now trades at 1.45.

Bet $50 · 2.30
Odds now 1.45
Fair value $79
Offered $74
Markup $5 (6.7%)

So what: the gap between fair value and the offer is the price of cashing out. Use it when your view has changed.

Example figures. Fair value = potential return ÷ current odds.

A good fit if you
