eSports

1xBit does its bit to promote esports by sponsoring several high-profile teams. There are betting opportunities on several significant events and esports games, such as the ones mentioned below. Let’s take a look at them.

Counter-Strike Betting

Counter-Strike bets are accepted on totals and handicaps for rounds, including all possible overtimes. If any player or team drops out of a match for any reason, bets will stand on the remaining contests and maps. Bets on Live markets are settled at odds of 1 unless the outcome is already determined when the match stops. If a game is postponed for more than 24 hours, the company may settle bets at odds of 1. No stake will be canceled due to a latent misprint in the username of a player or team. In that event, all bets stand. No substitutions of team members, even if they occur during the match, will affect your wagers. If the administrator stops a game and sets up a replay, the result of the interrupted game won't count.

Handicaps and totals are available per map, except when totals or handicaps pertain to a specific map or match on a best-of-one basis. The Map Ends In Daytime market is based on the game’s day and night cycle. The first day starts at minute zero and alternates with night every few minutes. Instant nighttime, as caused by the character Night Stalker due to his ability, is still regarded as day.

For Dota 2 or League of Legends, the map or match winner is determined when one team gains the throne or destroys the nexus.

eSports Football Betting

eSports Football betting involves streaming of a multiplayer football simulator game. Wagering options include the UEFA Champions League and Europa League. All bets are paid out after the event ends. The minimum wager on any selection is 0.2mɃ. The bookmakers determine the exact maximum stake for each bet. The bookie may change limits without prior notice.

Football stakes are accepted at regular times. If staff commit an error, or if there are software failures at the time of bet acceptance—like apparent misprints in the odds, inconsistencies between the odds displayed in the Sports or Live sections and on your betting slip, or other indications of wagers accepted incorrectly—the bookmaker is entitled to render such stakes void.

Bets on the UEFA Champions League are available pre-match and live. All eSports Football is screened online. The following betting markets are open in regular time: Win, Double Chance, Handicap, Total Over/Under, Team Total, Over/Under, Total Even/Odd, Correct Score, and Next Goal.

Counter-Strike Detailed Rules

Counter-Strike involves streaming of a multiplayer simulator game. Stakes are available on battles between two teams. A single match goes up to 11 victories, with a maximum of 21 rounds. All bets are paid out right after a game ends. One round lasts two minutes. No action performed after the time expiration will count for betting purposes.

Counter-Terrorists win the round if no bomb is planted on a bomb-defusing map during the time. Terrorists win if no hostage is rescued on a hostage rescue map during the time. The minimum stake for one selection is 0.2mɃ. The maximum bet is set by the bookie for each section individually. Stake limits may change without prior notice.

If staff commit an error or a software failure occurs at the time of bet acceptance, or any other indications show the bet is incorrect, such bets are void. It does not matter when someone plants a bomb during the round, whether before or after all counter-terrorists have been killed—only the planting matters.

For W1 and W2 (win in round): If the bomb is defused, W1 wins and W2 loses. If the bomb explodes, W1 loses and W2 wins. Bets on teams are only accepted LIVE. All matches are streamed online.

The following betting markets are available: Win, Handicap, Total Over/Under, Team Total, Over/Under, Bomb Planted, Win In Round, Total In Round, Handicap In Round, Total, Headshots In Round, Individual Total Frags In Round, Total Frags In Round, Even/Odd, Method Of Win In Round, Round Duration, Bomb Defused, First Frag In Round, Team Suicide In Round, Total Headshots In Round, Win To Nil In Round.

A frag is a point scored for killing an opponent (e.g., if an opposing team member dies for any reason, excluding death by bomb explosion or suicide). A headshot is a shot to the head. Suicide is death caused by falling from a height or bomb explosion.

eSports Ice Hockey Betting
