he is just using a workaround by being able to bet on all possible results for a single match (techically he is using a bug in the goodspeeds system)

What makes you say that?

He correctly predicted when the other betters were underrating or overrating players and betted strategically, that's how he won.

I even told you this before, but you ignored me, so i am going to repeat myself:
-Currently, you can bet on all outcomes of a single match which leads to 0% of not guessing the right results.
-He bets 500 points on the most possible results (3:2, 3:1, 2:3) which have 5-10x eficiency and if some match outcomes arent, he gets the points.).
Even i could win this if i was betting 4x with 500 points and then win with 7x efficiency (500*7-500*4=1500 profit lol)...
And you keep praising him for using bugs in the system...

Lol, I'm not even going to try to explain. Anyway I guess you'll win next time, having caught this game-breaking bug? Looking forward to it.

Thanks for hosting and organizing these betting events gs, I know all the sane people on this forum appreciate it lol.

Don't see a whole lot of people donating $100 of their own money and even more importantly, their time, to a community-wide event. Kind of hard to criticize that, but I suppose someone will find a way.

i agree, you're an idiotic twat if you find the time to whine about someone investing time, money and energy into the community. funnily enough we've actually had that. but that's a story for another day

Yes, however the mathematics of the odds works in such a way that you stand nothing to gain from it, other than inflation which applies to all winning bets.

Frankly, I don't think you understand how betting works.

Im pretty sure zoi just bets on everything but the super unlikely outcomes and then proceeds to just continually make money until he gets really unlucky a few times in a row. I shouldve copied his strategy.
