Esports betting is not without risk – money that you bet can be lost just as easily as it can be won. Nevertheless, esports betting is a popular hobby around the world, and for some lucky participants, it can be extremely profitable as well.
This was the case for one particular CS:GO fan that managed to win a whopping $7.600 in just two CS:GO bets he placed on ESL Pro League tournaments. Specifically, he bet on G2 and BIG to win their respective ESL PRO League matches, and also added that Team Queso would win the first map against BIG. This way, he managed to turn the $531 that he bet into $3.800 in one go.
That wasn’t the extent of his luck though – a day later, he did something very similar. A four-fold combo bet that covered mousesports beating FaZe, ENCE beating Heroic, Vitality beating NiP and AGF winning against Apeks. In this bet, he turned a $250 stake into $3.800!
As CS:GO esports fans are probably aware, there are some big names in those lineups, and some of the best CS:GO teams, and the wins in question were far from guaranteed – not exactly a ‘safe bet’. Nevertheless, the lucky betting fan did in fact guess correctly and managed to win big. If you’re curious, the odds for the first and second combo bet were 7.19 and 15.20 respectively – once again, hardly a sure thing!

The director of Luckbox’s sportsbook section said about the winning player:
“The stakes were pretty high, so this was brave betting, but he was rewarded for his courage with two very big wins. They were genius bets, really. It shows a great amount of CS:GO knowledge to win two big combo bets like this, so well played to him.”
