Esports betting
Esports betting is a fairly new form of gambling, in which people bet on a competitive video gaming match.[1][2][3][4] Esports betting can either be done before the match starts, but in some cases, also during the live match. There are mainly 3 types of esports betting, which are; fixed-odds betting, private betting and skin/loot box betting. In some cases, esports betting can be only done on specific video game. Esports betting games may include; Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, League of Legends and Dota 2. In esports betting bets may be placed on such things as; match winner, tournament winner, final score, odd/evens bets and over/under bets. Esports betting isn't regulated in same way as other more traditional forms of gambling, thus sometimes the betting may be done by a minor. Esports betting differs from traditional sports betting, because of its complexity. Some competitively played video games may be rather complex to understand, while in traditional sports bettings, the sports rules are usually well acknowledged by the public.[5]
